Circular purchasing, disposal & recycling – Closing the Loop offers commercial services that lead to increased sustainability for mobile phones. These devices, of which over two billion are produced each year, often miss out on commercial, social and environmental value due to sub-optimal life cycle management. We capture these values by offering solutions for circular procurement, life cycle extension and award-winning disposal. Besides, we advocate at governmental level for policies that promote circular and sustainable electronics. Lastly, Closing the Loop promotes the circular economy and raises awareness for the e-waste problem.
