The Result
Through the collaboration, Closing the Loop fulfills part of KPMG’s wish to anchor circularity in a tangible and straight forward way in its business model and to reduce CO2 emissions. Taking into account that the average lifespan of a phone is around 3 years, Closing the Loop has already compensated 5.500 phones for KPMG over the last 4 years. This led to tangible social and environmental benefits. These results were shared via an annually updated infographic. KPMG was showcased as a circular pioneer in many PR communications from Closing the Loop.
KPMG is in constant dialogue with its customers and other stakeholders about its Corporate Responsibility strategy and the way in which it further reduces its ecological footprint. The collaboration with Closing the Loop is one of the concrete initiatives that KPMG talks about in such conversations.
