Compact by Design: Sustainable Products with a Smaller Footprint

At the heart of our Compact by Design initiative is a simple premise: small changes in product size and weight can lead to substantial reductions in carbon emissions. While the outward appearance of a product may not always look drastically different, we've identified items that have a more efficient, space-saving design.

By removing excess air and water from the product, we're able to reduce the amount of packaging required. This, in turn, makes the item more efficient to ship, as less space is needed to transport the same quantity of goods. When multiplied across millions of units, these seemingly minor adjustments can have a significant impact on lowering the overall carbon footprint.

There are numerous ways a product can qualify for the Compact by Design certification. For instance, liquid hand soap that is formulated to be more concentrated requires less packaging than its traditional counterpart. Similarly, laundry detergent pods take up less space than bulky liquid containers, allowing more units to be shipped in a single delivery truck. Even simple changes, such as reducing the amount of excess air in a chip bag, can contribute to a more sustainable product.

The goal of Compact by Design is to identify and highlight these kinds of innovations, empowering consumers to make more environmentally conscious choices. By choosing products that have been optimized for efficiency, customers can feel confident that their purchase is having a tangible, positive impact on the planet.

Of course, sustainability is about much more than just product design. That's why Compact by Design is just one part of our broader commitment to environmental stewardship. We're constantly exploring new ways to reduce our carbon footprint, from investing in renewable energy sources to implementing zero-waste initiatives in our fulfillment centers.

Ultimately, we believe that small changes can lead to big results. By focusing on making our products more compact and efficient, we're able to minimize the environmental toll without compromising on quality or convenience. It's a win-win for our customers and the planet alike.

So, next time you're shopping, keep an eye out for the Compact by Design badge. It's a simple way to identify products that are designed with sustainability in mind, helping you make choices that align with your values and contribute to a healthier future for all.
