Below are a few advantages it provides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Decreases carbon footprint<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sustainable <a href=\"https:\/\/meyers.com\/capabilities\/packaging\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">product packaging<\/a> in eCommerce is safer for the environment when it can naturally decompose faster after disposal. <a href=\"https:\/\/meyers.com\/meyers-blog\/what-is-reusable-packaging-examples-benefits-ideas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Reusing<\/a> this type of packaging is much easier too, and manufacturing tends to require less energy and produce minimal waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lightweighting is another common sustainable packaging practice.This often saves cost on packaging materials and again when shipping. The lighter weight packaging also reduces the amount of energy required to transport a package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These factors allow brands to shrink their carbon footprint and become more environmentally friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Boosts brand image<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/f.hubspotusercontent20.net\/hubfs\/4783129\/An%20EcoWakening_Measuring%20awareness,%20engagement%20and%20action%20for%20nature_FINAL_MAY%202021%20(1).pdf?__hstc=130722960.ecb206528da823f5ba86141aa6e8eac6.1642377481532.1642377481532.1642377481532.1&amp;__hssc=130722960.1.1642377481533&amp;__hsfp=2719519617&amp;hsCtaTracking=96a022a5-8be1-44ee-82fc-ced6164b8590%7C0c8892b7-4e13-464f-9b50-75e692c189ef\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Economist<\/a> finds that consumers believe corporations have as much responsibility as governments to make a positive environmental change. Since sustainable packaging positively impacts the environment, using it can enhance how consumers perceive a brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Encourages brand loyalty<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Biodegradable product packaging can cultivate a strong bond with eco-conscious consumers who prioritize sustainability as part of their identity. By choosing such packaging, businesses empower customers to align their beliefs with their purchases, increasing brand loyalty.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Increases customer retention<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Microsoft, customers are more willing to <a href=\"https:\/\/about.ads.microsoft.com\/en-ca\/blog\/post\/december-2021\/consumers-are-ready-to-switch-brands-for-sustainable-alternatives\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">switch brands<\/a> that they know practice sustainability. Since <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meyers.com\/meyers-blog\/product-packaging-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">product packaging<\/a> can play a role in marketing strategies, adopting sustainable eCommerce packaging can reduce customer churn and improve sales.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Attracts new customers&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.meyers.com\/meyers-blog\/guide-to-sustainable-packaging-for-business\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Switching to sustainable packaging<\/a> enables businesses to capture markets they may not have been able to reach before.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, suppose a makeup brand&#8217;s original audience was people in the fashion industry. By adopting <a href=\"https:\/\/meyers.com\/capabilities\/packaging\/eco-friendly-packaging\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sustainable cosmetic packaging<\/a>, businesses can attract fashionable customers looking to minimize their environmental footprint.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Improves business profitability&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sustainable packaging done properly is a net win for profitability. It often doesn&#8217;t require additional expenses; its <a href=\"https:\/\/meyers.com\/meyers-blog\/the-true-cost-of-sustainable-packaging\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">true cost<\/a> is relatively low. For instance, choosing a packaging manufacturer that uses only renewable energy generally won&#8217;t cost a brand anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, highlighting the sustainable aspects of packaging can increase sales among eco-conscious consumers. This approach focuses on finding the \u2018low-hanging fruit\u2019 or easy wins. According to a McKinsey &amp; Company survey, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/industries\/paper-forest-products-and-packaging\/our-insights\/sustainability-in-packaging-inside-the-minds-of-us-consumers#:~:text=60%20to%2070%20percent%20of%20consumers%20said%20they%20would%20pay%20more%20for%20sustainable%20packaging.%20A%20willingness%20to%20pay%20more%20was%20relatively%20equally%20distributed%20across%20end%2Duse%20segments.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">7 in 10 respondents<\/a> expressed willingness to pay higher prices for products with sustainable packaging.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The same survey found that up to 36% of respondents would purchase more sustainably packaged products if they were more widely available in stores. It highlights the untapped potential in meeting the needs of eco-conscious customers. However, brands must follow their best practices to fully benefit from sustainable packaging for eCommerce.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-10102_2feb54-00 .kt-block-spacer{height:40px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-10102_2feb54-00 .kt-divider{border-top-width:1px;height:1px;border-top-color:#eee;width:80%;border-top-style:solid;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-10102_2feb54-00\"><div class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"><hr class=\"kt-divider\"\/><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-sustainable-practices-for-your-ecommerce-packaging\"><strong>7 Sustainable Practices for Your eCommerce Packaging<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/meyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/shutterstock_2256450885-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"sustainable ecommerce packaging, sustainable packaging for ecommerce\" class=\"wp-image-10104\" srcset=\"https:\/\/meyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/shutterstock_2256450885-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/meyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/shutterstock_2256450885-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/meyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/shutterstock_2256450885-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/meyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/shutterstock_2256450885-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/meyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/shutterstock_2256450885-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/meyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/shutterstock_2256450885-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/meyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/shutterstock_2256450885-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/meyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/shutterstock_2256450885-1280x720.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/meyers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/shutterstock_2256450885-1920x1080.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Adopting sustainable eCommerce packaging doesn&#8217;t have to be complicated. Below are a few practices businesses can adopt to practice eCommerce sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-reduce-packaging-size\"><strong>1. Reduce packaging size<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Brands should rethink their product packaging when transitioning to more sustainable solutions. Excess space in packaging contributes to environmental waste and inefficient shipment. Hence, it&#8217;s ideal to use packaging that fits the right product size and contains only what&#8217;s necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What Apple did in 2020 is an example of how reducing packaging sizes benefits a company. They began shipping their iPhone 12 and Apple Watch Series 6 devices without a charging adaptor, significantly shrinking the packaging. This change allowed them to fit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/environment\/pdf\/Apple_Environmental_Progress_Report_2021.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">70% more products on shipping pallets<\/a>, reducing shipping emissions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-use-recyclable-or-biodegradable-materials\"><strong>2. Use recyclable or biodegradable materials<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.meyers.com\/meyers-blog\/what-is-biodegradable-packaging\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Biodegradable packaging<\/a> naturally breaks down from bacteria within a year after disposal, unlike traditional <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plasticsoupfoundation.org\/en\/plastic-problem\/plastic-environment\/plastic-production-decomposition\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">plastic<\/a>, which can last decades if it even decomposes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While recyclable packaging may biodegrade at different rates, it offers the advantage of remaining in a customer&#8217;s life longer. Its longevity can increase brand recall if they interact with the packaging daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-source-locally\"><strong>3. Source locally<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Shipping international products can add to the carbon emissions from the mode of transport. Beyond faster and more cost-efficient shipments, sourcing materials locally minimizes a company&#8217;s total carbon emissions.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-minimize-plastic-usage\"><strong>4. Minimize plastic usage<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Single-use plastic bottles and disposable plastic bags are a few examples of <a href=\"https:\/\/meyers.com\/meyers-blog\/unsustainable-packaging-examples-and-how-to-avoid-them\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">unsustainable packaging.<\/a> These aren&#8217;t the only materials available to businesses that can match the reliability and durability of plastics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/meyers.com\/meyers-blog\/7-types-of-plant-based-packaging-for-your-business-needs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Plant-based packaging<\/a> materials such as mushroom mycelium and seaweed allow a company to minimize the amount of plastic in their packaging without sacrificing quality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-become-a-climate-neutral-certified-company\"><strong>5. Become a Climate-Neutral certified company<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Certifications from organizations like Climate Neutral provide credibility and social proof for businesses. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climateneutral.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Climate Neutral<\/a> is a global non-profit that grants certificates to companies meeting their carbon neutrality standards. This certification acts as a badge, assuring consumers that the brand is taking concrete action against climate change, not just making empty claims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-educate-customers\"><strong>6. Educate customers&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Educating customers about sustainability establishes thought leadership and demonstrates expertise in the subject. Including QR codes in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meyers.com\/meyers-blog\/product-packaging-design-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">product packaging&#8217;s design<\/a> is an excellent method to achieve this. QR codes can link to web pages with details about the packaging, including material sourcing and its advantages over traditional plastic.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The short bit of copy you place alongside QR codes can also highlight the impact the customer is making on the environment, empowering them to continue supporting the brand. The key is combining brevity, emotional appeal, and a call to action to learn more through the QR code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-work-with-sustainable-packaging-experts\"><strong>7. Work with sustainable packaging experts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A major challenge companies face is sorting through which suppliers truly practice sustainability. Sustainability consultants specializing in packaging can provide insights into which supplier offers the sustainable solutions a brand needs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brands can leverage the expertise of sustainable packaging industry influencers to explore the plethora of sustainable packaging options available.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Influencers such as Cory Connor (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.corygated.com\/\">Corygated<\/a>) and <a href=\"https:\/\/meyers.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Meyers<\/a>\u2019 Senior Vice President Adam Peek (<a href=\"https:\/\/packagingpastor.com\/\">Packaging Pastor<\/a>) can provide valuable guidance to brands seeking the right packaging materials that align with their sustainability goals.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-10102_44d4ef-ad .kt-block-spacer{height:40px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-10102_44d4ef-ad .kt-divider{border-top-width:1px;height:1px;border-top-color:#eee;width:80%;border-top-style:solid;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-10102_44d4ef-ad\"><div class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"><hr class=\"kt-divider\"\/><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-it-s-time-to-practice-sustainability\"><strong>It&#8217;s Time to Practice Sustainability<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The global movement towards sustainable eCommerce packaging indicates that it&#8217;s not just a passing trend.
