Cradle to Cradle (recycling concept)

Cradle to Cradle (C2C) is a sustainable design philosophy that encourages products to be made so their materials can be reused or recycled endlessly, rather than discarded as waste. Instead of a linear process of "take-make-dispose," C2C promotes creating products with materials that are safe, healthy, and environmentally friendly. When a product reaches the end of its life, its components are designed to be repurposed into new products, reducing resource consumption and waste. This continuous cycle supports ecological balance and promotes innovation in responsible manufacturing.
