Towards minimizing packaging waste across its supply chain, Amazon India
expanded its Packaging-Free Shipping (PFS) to over a 100 cities in the country. Amazon had first launched PFS in India in June 2019 in 9 cities. PFS is a sustainable packaging solution in which customer orders are shipped in their original packaging without any additional packaging, or significantly reduced packaging. Products that are shipped packaging-free include tech accessories, home and home improvement products, shoes, luggage, and more. Liquids, fragile items, and personal care products that need additional protection during transportation continue to be shipped with packaging. With this expansion of PFS, more than 40% of Amazon customer orders shipped from Amazon India’s Fulfilment centers are now packaging-free or have significantly reduced packaging.
