The challenge of closing the loop on an industrial scale
Efficiency, quality, and circularity
An integrated industrial system
At Erum, we do not view recirculation as an isolated process, but as an integrated industrial system. Our objective is to keep products and materials in use for as long as possible, returning them to the production cycle with their maximum value. We connect logistics, sorting, reuse, and recycling under a single operational logic to efficiently manage the return of hangers, metals, cardboard, and textiles.
We've revolutionized logistics
Our strategy begins with smart reverse logistics. Structured and efficient collection is a game-changer. We integrate into our clients’ daily operations to channel materials from the point of use to our treatment centers. We optimize routes and flows to reduce travel, turning returns into a competitive and environmental advantage.
Once received, materials pass through our sorting centers. Under rigorous technical criteria, we determine the optimal destination for each item:
Reuse:
We identify hangers suitable for continued use.
Repair:
We intervene on products that need adjustments to re-enter the market.
Recycling:
We transform material that has reached the end of its useful life into new, high-quality raw material.
We strive to give life to our products
We prioritize reuse to reduce the demand for new resources. The hangers we reintroduce into the system meet all technical guarantees for operating in demanding environments.
When a product’s life cycle ends, we integrate it into recycling processes designed to recover maximum value, ensuring the traceability and stability of the new resource generated.
Being close is where we excel
The key to our success lies in our infrastructure of strategic sorting hubs. By sorting products at geographical points close to the return location, we avoid unnecessary transport and redistribute hangers directly where they are needed.
This decentralized model allows us to achieve reuse rates close to 90%, doubling the performance of traditional centralized models (which typically hover around 42%). This proximity makes us more agile, sustainable, and competitive.
Circular Economy for Exponential Growth
Our system is prepared to grow and adapt to complex international supply chains. We offer our clients a solution that not only improves their ESG indicators but also generates direct savings and operational stability.
At Erum, we transform the circular economy into a scalable industrial reality, enabling brands to advance with confidence and transparency in a demanding global market.
