PROJECT WITH DESCRIPTION EXAMPLE
We looked at every box leaving our store and asked what plastic we could drop.
Tape, bubble wrap and shrink film were the first to go.
We now pack glass bottles in shredded paper instead of foam.
Bread and dry goods travel in reusable cotton bags that customers can return.
What changed for customers
Orders look plainer but open just as safely, and there is far less to throw away.

Only on the outside. Boxes are plainer, bags are cloth instead of plastic, and padding is paper instead of foam. What is inside is exactly the same as before.
