Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Recyclages is masculine because it derives from the prefix "re-" plus the verb "cycler" (itself from English "cycle"), and French verbal nouns ending in "-age" are typically masculine by convention, a pattern inherited from Latin "-aticum" endings that became masculine in Old French. This is an arbitrary grammatical rule rather than a semantic one, as many French nouns ending in "-age" (like "message," "passage," and "voyage") are all masculine regardless of their meaning.
