History of the recycling symbol
The original recycling symbol was designed by Gary Anderson in a logo design contest held by Bill Loyd, the graphic designer at Container Corporation of America in 1970.
Facts about the original recycle symbol:
- Figure 1 – The three arrows represent ‘reducing’, ‘reusing’, and ‘recycling’. (source)
- Figure 2 – The inside negative space of the symbol resembles a pine tree.
- The recycling symbol is a variant of the Möbius loop to symbolize continuity within a finite entity. (source)
- The original idea for the symbol was to create a symbol for recycled paper. The folded ‘chasing arrows’ resembles folded newspapers. (source)
- It took Gary Anderson ‘a day or two’ to come up with his design. (source)
