recicladas

Recicladas is the feminine plural past participle of the Spanish verb reciclar. It functions as an adjective and is used to describe objects, materials, or products that have been processed for reuse, indicating that they have undergone recycling.

In general use, recicladas must agree in gender and number with the noun they modify. Examples include botellas recicladas, ropas recicladas, and figuras recicladas. In grammatical constructions, the form can appear in passive or semi-passive phrases such as Las botellas están recicladas or Las botellas han sido recicladas, signaling that the recycling action has been completed.

Context and labeling often employ the term recicladas to denote products made from recycled materials. For instance, bolsas recicladas or muebles reciclados (the latter uses the masculine plural form since muebles is masculine). The term is common in environmental communication, product specifications, and sustainability reports to emphasize reuse and material recovery.

Related linguistic forms include reciclado (the noun or masculine form for the act of recycling) and reciclables (items that are recyclable). Reciclaje refers to the broader process of recycling, from collection to processing and reuse. The usage of recicladas thus aligns with standard Spanish adjective agreement and with discussions about material reuse and environmental impact.
