LoopBox launched to reduce plastic use and CO2 emissions

Hygiene industry disruptor, 2Pure Products, has launched the LoopBox, believed to be the UK’s first plastic closed loop initiative to recycle both containers and packaging.

2Pure Products’ OdorBac Tec4 multi-purpose cleaner will now be delivered in the innovative LoopBox. When the OdorBac Tec4 container is empty, it is put back into the LoopBox, collected by 2Pure’s UK distributor, BCHS, and returned to the local depot. On their next delivery date, 2Pure collects and returns to its factory, where the containers are sorted, cleaned and dried. They are then re-filled, re-packed in a LoopBox, and re-delivered to distributor depots, returning the containers to the closed loop cycle.

The LoopBox system prevents virgin plastic from ever being produced, re-using OdorBac’s recycled plastic bottle again and again. No additional journeys are made for collection or delivery, and 2Pure also offsets the carbon on all its scheduled delivery and collection journeys. Customers can see their plastic and CO2 savings every month, in a customised report.

James Law, commercial director at 2Pure Products, said: “All of our products are developed, manufactured and used with sustainability front of mind. From day one, we have been committed to reducing our impact on the environment, from only using ingredients that are safe for people and the planet, to ensuring all bottles and containers are made from 100% recycled plastic. We are delighted to have been able to go one step further with our green efforts and bring a UK-first closed loop recycling system to the cleaning and FM market. The 2Pure Products LoopBox not only minimises the amount of virgin plastic entering the loop, but it also slashes CO2 emissions by limiting the number of journeys needed to make the recycling process achievable and sustainable for our customers. Feedback to date has been extremely positive and we look forward to sharing the sustainable saving stats with our customers, as we continue to support their green ambitions.”
