Answer 1

The correct option is A

Percentage of materials in a product that are recycled.

Pre-consumer recycling takes place when the materials of manufacturing do not reach a consumer and are recycled. The recycled materials can be broken down and remade into similar or different materials. In simple words, its the percentage of materials in a product that are recycled from sourced manufacturing wastes. For example, there would be a paper factory reusing paper clippings to make more paper.
