Reducing packaging waste, one package at a time at Amazon, we obsess over providing a great packaging experience to our customers.
We introduced Frustration-Free Packaging in 2008, an innovation designed to reduce waste and delight customers with easy-to-open, 100% recyclable packaging. Since then the program has grown to include a wide range of initiatives designed to optimize packaging we use in our fulfillment centers and by working with manufacturers worldwide to help them to develop sustainable packaging for online fulfillment.
Since 2015, we have reduced the weight of outbound packaging by 33% and eliminated more than 900,000 tons of packaging material, the equivalent of 1.6 billion shipping boxes. To learn more about our sustainability initiatives, please visit our Sustainability Website
