S-Cycle highlights the life cycles of different parts of the same object as they make their way to landfills or recycling. It highlights that most products will never go away, a fact many ignore even though it is part of our everyday lives. The colors of light that reflect on the object's surface determine whether the part is recyclable, non-recyclable, or electronic waste. The green light represents recyclable parts, the yellow light represents electronic waste, and the red light indicates parts that are not recyclable. S-Cycle brings to life this invisible circle and raises awareness by showing which parts are recyclable or not and shares the importance of the afterlife stage of the product life cycle.
