Yet they're still able to put those stupid fucking recycling labels on their products as if it's recycled.

Not sure which one you mean but I have a feeling it's a lot like the resin identification code where it looks like the recycling symbol but isn't. It's to make you think it can be recycled so you don't feel as bad about buying it and throwing it away.
