What is this action about?
In packaging, one of the most impactful levers you have is to avoid single-use materials. This lowers your CO2 emissions on individual orders and overall waste.
One highly promising innovation in this regard is the implementation of reusable packaging - i.e., boxes, bags, or containers that survive more than two life cycles.
This solution is still in its early stages, so it will only have an impact if customers actually return it, meaning that it requires some marketing efforts from you to educate your customers on how to use it. Although the initial cost is higher, this switch can save you money over time. Moreover, some shops share this cost with their customers by asking for a fee or deposit for each parcel.
