Technological Transformation: Amazon has modified over 120 automated equipment originally used for manufacturing plastic bags in the United States, and instead produces custom-made paper bags. This initiative has reduced the use of over 130 million plastic bags in 2024.
Lightweighting Trend: Amazon is committed to reducing the use of plastic in each package. The goal is to reduce the proportion of deliveries using additional plastic packaging to one-third by December 2024.
Global Promotion: This automated paper packaging technology is not only used in North America, but its variant technologies are also being put into use in Europe, Japan, and Australia.
