These envelopes are made of 100 per cent paper, are fully recyclable and are now also being launched in Germany.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/?s=amazon\">Amazon<\/a> has developed a new shipping packaging together with partners that <strong>lighter, more stable and more environmentally friendly<\/strong> is. The paper-padded envelopes are made of a specially developed lightweight paper with a corrugated inner lining that provides shock absorption. This packaging is 100 per cent recyclable and can be disposed of with household waste.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201eOur challenge was to develop a packaging solution that is lightweight, flexible and fully recyclable without compromising on protection.\u201c<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thais Blumer<\/strong>, European Head of Sustainable Packaging at Amazon<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The new packaging <strong>saves an average of 44 grams of material per consignment<\/strong> and is more flexible than cartons of the same size. This means that the envelopes can be filled more efficiently and at the same time ensure safe transport as the products remain firmly in place.
