RE-ZIP, a Danish software company and circular packaging solutions supplier, has initiated a reusable packaging trial with Amazon in five European countries.
The trial involves a newly designed cardboard box that customers can fold and return via a convenient collection point after scanning a QR code.
RE-ZIP CEO and founder Bo Bach Boddum said: “We have rolled out the project in several countries, but the collaboration with Amazon is the biggest single test we’ve ever conducted. That’s why we’re very excited to see how Amazon’s customers will receive our patented cardboard boxes.”
The boxes are designed to be reused multiple times, potentially reducing the need for new packaging.
RE-ZIP and other start-ups that are part of the Amazon Sustainability Accelerator will collaborate with Amazon’s packaging experts during the trial.
