At iceep, we believe circularity is not just about sustainability.

It's about building & maintaining loyal relationships.

ABOUT US

Why we love takeback so much...

Industries plunder our planet, hunting for resources to build the products we desire, only to mindlessly dump them in landfills. At iceep, we see hope and an opportunity for change in the circular economy - a system that perceives used products and materials as resources rather than waste. For us, takeback is the gateway to the circular economy. It is the simplest action a brand can take to start its transition to a circular business model. As a company, we are dedicated to ensure that this transition is smooth and exciting for our customers.

What inspires us the most is the application of technology and digitalisation to the takeback process, which offers brands an entirely new, fresh and dynamic way to connect with shoppers. These digital touchpoints position the exchange of products at their end of life at the heart of loyal and value-driven relationship between shoppers and their favourites brands. Enabling this connection is a gamechanger for closing the loop on products and materials.
