Close the Loop Inc

2051 Meridian Pl, Florence, Kentucky, United States | Waste recycling

Close the Loop (CtL) is an Australian owned resource recovery and recycling company. We have established a global reputation for providing creative end of life product management services.

Specializing in post-consumer recycling (PCR), CtL provides its services to leading global manufacturers of consumer and business to business products.

CtL is founded on a ‘Zero Waste to Landfill’ promise. End of life products are returned to the original manufacturer for re-use where possible. If not, we use a range of patented processes to recover all the materials from those products. These materials may be reused in the manufacture of the products, or turned into a range of new innovative products.

More than just a recycling company, we are a materials recovery company, giving new life to valuable resources. We offer advice to manufacturers in their design of new products withend of life disposal in mind – to improve reusability, to simplify recycling, and to maximize the value of recovered materials.

CtL was established in Australia in 2001 and set up collection and processing facilities in the US in 2007. It now employs over 200 people in these two countries.

Services

Design for Environment

Design for Environment is a unique service offered by Close the Loop to manufacturers.  Good product design, with end of life in mind, has the potential to impact all other elements of the supply chain in a positive way while maximizing the value of the raw materials in a product. This encourages the development of the collection and processing infrastructure to return those raw materials back into the product cycle. It’s fair to say that most products in the market today are not designed with end of life in mind. Because of this, we have a planet full of consumer (and other) products that cost society money to recycle. If a product is designed for reuse or recycling, the value of the raw materials recovered will more than likely exceed the cost of recycling. We can assist in simplifying the degree of complexity of products to help reduce the cost of resource recovery. Close the Loop can help your organization analyze, review, and capture core information on compatibility of plastic types, complexity of products and the ease with which resources can be recovered. Some design features or elements that help make resource recovery an attractive proposition for the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) include:

  • Fewer raw materials.
  • Ease of parts recovery.
  • Ease of materials separation.
  • Use of highly recyclable metals and plastics.
  • Minimal contaminants like glues and labels.
  • Clever fixings and fasteners that are made from the same materials as the main housings.

Custom Programs for OEMs

Close the Loop has over 11 years of knowledge, experience, and historical data on running a collection and recycling program for leading manufacturers of imaging consumables and other products.
