What is the difference between recyclable packaging and biodegradable?

Recyclable packaging refers to materials that can be processed for them to be reused. Biodegradable on the other hand refers to packaging that will decompose over time (e.g. paper based products). Packaging can either be both (such as cardboard) or just recyclable (such as plastics).
