Making reusable boxes a “new normal” for e-commerce: planet friendly and easy to use
Making reusable boxes a “new normal” for e-commerce: planet friendly and easy to use
What problem we are solving
34 million tonnes
Cardboard and paper are the main packaging waste material in the EU –responsible for 34 million tonnes annually
90%
of products are shipped in cardboards
83 cardboard boxes
are used per person annually
The production of just 83 cardboard boxes demands significant environmental resources: the cutting down of a tree that has been growing for a decade and the consumption of 1,600 liters of water. This highlights the heavy ecological footprint associated with traditional packaging methods, underlining the urgent need for more sustainable practices in the industry.
Despite the resources invested, the average cardboard box has a shockingly short lifespan of merely three days before it becomes waste. Consequently, cardboard packaging contributes to one-third of all solid waste in landfills, illustrating a pressing issue of inefficiency and environmental harm that calls for immediate action towards more sustainable packaging solutions.
Why traditional packaging does not work?
A new packaging approach addresses sustainability, regulatory, and cost challenges.
