16 Apr 2024 --- Amazon is now shipping over 50% of European cargo in reduced, recyclable delivery packaging, such as a paper bag, cardboard envelope or no added packaging through Amazon’s Ships in Product Packaging program. The program applies to eligible items that don’t require any additional Amazon packaging — the products ship in the original manufacturer’s packaging, with only a customer address label added. “Customers know Amazon for our instantly recognizable cardboard delivery boxes, but more than half of our deliveries in Europe now come in lighter packaging such as paper bags or card envelopes, or with no added packaging at all,” says Pat Lindner, Amazon’s VP of Mechatronics and Sustainable Packaging.
