Sustainability in Action

Material recovery processes ensure that valuable materials are not disposed of as waste and are instead reused. Close the Loop has a ‘Zero Waste to Landfill’ guarantee and manages resources in accordance with the Close the Loop materials recovery hierarchy; the hierarchy focuses on returning materials to the highest possible value chain. Close the Loop works with original equipment manufacturers to identify and improve recycling and material recovery rates.

To give some idea of the benefit for the planet, for every 1 tonne of print consumables collected, recycled and recovered by Close the Loop, over 10 times more carbon is saved through the avoided use of virgin materials.
