Education & Resources

Building a circular future through knowledge.

Close the Loop supports communities by providing clear, practical materials that make recycling easy to understand and simple to participate in. Our goal is to help schools, workplaces, and community groups take part in real circular solutions through our collection programs.

Why Education Matters to Us

A circular economy grows stronger when people know how to take part. We believe in making recycling accessible by providing straightforward guides, program kits, and information that help communities reduce waste and keep materials in circulation.

Program Resources

We provide flyers, guides, and participation kits that help organisations understand how to correctly use our collection programs.

School Cartridge Recycling Program Kit

Clear instructions and support materials for schools, workplaces, and community groups participating in the Cartridges 4 Planet Ark program - including program flyers and simple setup guidance.

Battery Recycling Box Instructions

Safety guides, setup information, and clear disposal steps included with each Battery Recycling Box to ensure safe collection and transport.

Learning Through Real Examples

See how circularity comes to life across Australia.

Community Collection in Action

From cartridge bins in schools to battery collection boxes in workplaces, our programs make recycling accessible and practical for everyday Australians.

Soft Plastics to Stronger Roads

Soft plastics collected through approved trials are processed into high-value recycled outputs such as TonerPlas® and rFlex®, demonstrating how household materials can be transformed into useful products.

Community Engagement & Awareness

While we don’t run formal workshops, Close the Loop contributes to awareness and community learning through:
  • Program Participation Support: Providing simple tools, guides, and communication materials to help organisations engage in recycling programs confidently.
  • Community & Industry Initiatives: Participating in campaigns and discussions that promote responsible recycling and circular resource recovery.
  • Event Involvement: Taking part in major national initiatives -such as National Recycling Week - to help raise awareness about circularity and correct recycling habits.
