Closed Loop Lanyard Recycling

Impamark are delighted to announce the first ever closed loop lanyard recycling program in the UK promotional industry.  Customers who buy any polyester or rPET lanyards can return them for recycling and reuse.

What is "closed loop" recycling?

Simply put, closed loop means that these polyester products can be recycled multiple times, being taken back to their raw components and re-made into new products.

If you are choosing our rPET material for your products then that material has already been recycled, having previously been a plastic bottle.

Are all the parts recycled?

No, but everything is either reused or recycled

The polyester fabric is recycled and taken back to raw material pellets for making new items. The clips and fasteners are removed and put aside for reuse on new lanyards.

Does this mean a huge carbon footprint of material moving around the world?

No, reprocessing begins with stripping into components by our partners in this new project.

Once converted into raw plastic pellets, the recycled material can be made into new products by one of our suppliers who have pioneered the development of planet friendly products for the promotional industry. 

What do we need to do to take part?

Simply return the (clean*) used items to the below address:
