A food and beverage manufacturer issues a voluntary recall on 12,000 units of a mislabeled product. The brand needs documented destruction so the lots can never re-enter secondary markets. Loop performs product destruction at one of our facilities, recycles the packaging materials, and issues a Certificate of Destruction the brand provides to the FDA and their insurance carrier.

A national apparel retailer pulls last season's overstock plus 8,000 units of damaged returns that can't be liquidated without diluting the brand.

A premium skincare brand pulls 15,000 units of a moisturizer that failed stability testing past the expiration window.

A toy distributor receives a CPSC recall notice on 6,000 units of a small-parts toy with a choking hazard.
