What are the environmental benefits of reusable packaging compared to disposable cartons?
- Reduction of packaging waste: The reusable packaging can be reused up to 50 times, saving up to 80 % of packaging waste compared to disposable cartons.
- Fewer CO₂ emissions: For example, hey circle solutions save up to 76% CO₂ emissions compared to disposable cardboard (calculated by Ökopol).
- Less resource consumption: Reuse conserves valuable resources as less new packaging needs to be produced.
- Water and dirt-repellent packaging: There are suitable, durable and protective packaging solutions for every type of shipment.
- Deposit system: A simple deposit system ensures that the packaging remains in the shipping cycle and does not end up in the bin.
- Innovative materials: Boomerang, for example, relies on reusable shipping packaging made from used plastic.
