Yes it is a widespread designation, undoubtedly because it allows the public to better locate what this new concept is still a little "groping". Indeed, it covers very different things like renovation, reinterpretation - new use or new aspect for the object -, up to the original work of art or downright zany. Certain centers add activities such as environmental awareness, shows, exhibitions, etc.
But I think that over time the public will become familiar with these places, the different activities will specialize and use will lead to a simpler designation than "recycling-resource center".
