A circular economy for packaging means keeping it out of the trash and in a closed loop so the packaging can be used again and again. That is why Circleback rewards you for returning you packaging!
Unfortunately, in the current waste system, most packaging is downcycled or burned for energy. To make packaging really circular, Kneipp and Circleback work together towards the goal of developing a deposit system for packaging. This system should, in the future, be able to turn every old packaging into a new one. In this take-back program, we test your willingness to return packaging to Kneipp stores - the first step towards a true circular economy of packaging!
