Detailed project

What is the issue addressed?

In 2029 in Europe, 40 billion packages will be delivered. That's as much disposable packaging thrown away! A growth extremely wasteful in terms of resources, CO2 emissions that the recycling industry can not keep up with.

How is the problem solved?

RePack is a reusable and returnable packaging service. It replaces single-use packaging for online retailers and their customers. RePack delivers the goods, and is then sent back via the mailbox for reuse, eliminating the need to produce new packaging and/or manage its waste.

What is the customer target?

Consumer / User E-commerce, online stores and circular businesses

How is this solution different?

Unlike other packaging alternatives, RePack truly closes the packaging loop. It has a circular life cycle in a linear industry. RePack stands out because it's a sustainable solution to a real-world problem. Beyond the environmental and economic benefits, the user experience improves since they are freed of futile waste.
