内容声明标准中包含一套完整的纺织品交易所标准术语。以下内容特定于 RCS，在定义回收投入
材料的验证要求方面非常重要：
Material Collection 
材料收集
Material Collection refers to the point in the recycling lifecycle when a Reclaimed Material is collected 
after its original use has ended (i.e.: it would have otherwise gone into the waste stream). 
材料收集是指回收材料在其原始使用结束后的收集，是回收周期中的一个时间点（即：否则将进入
废物流程）。
Entities involved in Material Collection may include, but are not limited to:
涉及材料收集的实体可能包括但不限于：
 Individuals who collect Post-Consumer Materials for sale to brokers
 收集售给中间商的消费后材料的个人
 Government organizations (e.g.: municipalities) that offer curbside recycling or operate transfer 
stations 
 提供路边回收或经营转运站的政府机构（例如：市政府）
 Brokers that purchase Pre/Post-Consumer Material from individuals, municipalities, or 
commercial operations for re-sale
 从个人、市政或商业企业处购买消费前/后材料用以转售的中间商
 Commercial operations that collect their own Pre-Consumer Material from 
manufacturing operations 
 从制造业处收集消费前材料的商业经营单位
 Commercial operations that collect Post-Consumer Material (e.g.: retail stores) 
 收集消费后材料的商业经营单位（例如：零售店）
Material Concentration
材料集中
Material Concentration refers to the point in the recycling lifecycle when a waste material receives 
primary handling. This may include, but is not limited to, sorting, screening, basic contaminant removal, 
or baling. Material is still unprocessed at this stage, meaning it has not been physically or chemically 
altered beyond basic handling (e.g.: screening, crushing, or washing). 
材料集中是指在循环周期中，废料接受基本处理时的时间点。可能包括但不限于排序、筛选、基本
污染物去除或打捆。在这个阶段，材料仍然未经处理，这意味着除基本处理（例如：筛选、粉碎或
洗涤）之外，尚未发生物理或化学改变。
For example:
例如：
 Government organization (e.g.: municipality) 
 政府机构（如：自治市）  Non-profit organization 
 非盈利机构
 Business entity (e.g.: brokers) 
 业务实体（例如：中间商）
