End-to-end recycling and supply solutions for packaging and hard to recycle commodities.

With locations in Australia, Europe, South Africa, and the United States, Close the Loop Group create innovative products and more sustainable packaging, as well as collect, sort, reclaim and reuse resources that would otherwise go to landfill.

From recovering print consumables, eyewear, cosmetics, and phone cases, through-to the reusing of toner and post-consumer soft plastics for asphalt additive, we’re focused on the future, sustainability, and the circular economy.

PACKAGING PRODUCTS-

With a focus on sustainability and innovation, we create new packaging products for a range of global clients. With a breadth of recyclable and made-from % of recycled content packaging options available, we have a solution for any requirement.

ROAD/ASPHALT ADDITIVE-

Using recycled post-consumer soft plastics and flexible packaging from the REDCycle program in Australia, we have a road additive product called TonerPlas that prolongs the performance of asphalt while providing a solution for troublesome plastic waste.

RECYCLED PLASTIC RESIN

Using recycled plastics from various sources, we have a recycled plastic resin called rFlex that allows for the creation of new rigid plastic products using a high % of recycled content.

Recover/Collect

PRINT CONSUMABLES-

Close the Loop group have extensive collection locations for print consumables globally. This take-back program functions in conjunction with key partners to ensure the collection and retrievable of print consumables for reuse or recycling.

COSMETICS & PHONE CASES-

We work with key brands on the take-back of cosmetic packaging and phone cases to ensure these products are diverted from landfill.

Reuse

SOFT/FLEXIBLE PLASTICS-

We utilise vast volumes of post-consumer soft/flexible plastics to be put back into roads and secondary plastic items, with our ultimate goal to achieve packaging-to-packaging recycling.

Many print consumables collected from our extensive network are cleaned for refill and reuse in a closed-loop system.
