Adding to the artilce titled Reuse under section "Closed-loop programs":

Packaging is not the only important aspect of the the closed-loop system. If a company strives to incorporate a "closed-loop" system, they must restructure their entire operations. For example, Apple, one of the world's leading environmentalist company, is attempting to have a purely closed loop system. "We’re actually doing something we rarely do, which is announce a goal before we’ve completely figured out how to do it.” Apple has acknowledged that it is easier said than done to implement these changes.

Everything about a certain product must be able to be used again to have a closed-loop system so that the company can have an endless cycle of products and packaging. The process of making aluminum cans can also be hailed as a very strategic closed loop system. After someone purchases cans, they consume the product that was in them and then it's headed to a recycling bin. The recyclers then melt the aluminum back down and manufacture new cans out of it. This can-recycling process is a lot easier than trying to make a smartphone using the "closed-loop" system.
