Paper packaging at Amazon is easier to work with and pack orders, leading to a decision to replace plastic with 100% recycled paper filler in North America.
The shift from plastic air pillows to paper will prevent Amazon from using an estimated 15 billion plastic air pillows annually and enable easier recycling for customers.
Amazon's VP of sustainable packaging emphasizes the company's commitment to prioritizing curbside recyclable materials and continuous innovation in packaging.
The transition to 100% recycled paper filler was enabled by Amazon's testing of alternatives at an automated fulfillment center in Ohio, leading to a significant reduction in plastic packaging in North America.
