Description:

For this question you will be required to provide a whole number of components that are recyclable at end-of-life. Components refer to different packaging items that must be separated to consumer or access the product. Packaging is recyclable if its successful post-consumer collection, sorting, and recycling is proven to work in practice and at scale.
 

Example:


A jam jar would have 2 (two) components – the jar and the lid.
