Compact by Design: Prioritizing Sustainability through Efficient Product Design

At Amazon, we are committed to sustainability and reducing our environmental impact. To this end, we have created the Compact by Design initiative, which focuses on identifying products that, while they may not always appear visually different, have a more efficient design. By removing excess air and water, these products require less packaging, making them more efficient to ship. When scaled up, these small differences in product size and weight can lead to significant reductions in carbon emissions.

One of the key ways products can qualify for the Compact by Design program is through the use of concentrated ingredients. Take, for example, the case of Shea Butter. This natural ingredient provides deep moisturizing and repairing properties, but it can be made more efficient by removing excess water and packaging. Similarly, Brazilian Mango Butter helps restore elasticity and shine, while Coconut Oil nourishes and protects. Argan Oil, a premium ingredient, can be compacted to smooth and condition hair, and Vitamin E can be concentrated to effectively help repair damaged hair.

These small changes in product size and weight may not be immediately noticeable, but when multiplied across millions of units, they can have a significant impact on reducing carbon emissions. By shipping more efficient products, we can cut down on the resources required for transportation, ultimately reducing our environmental footprint.

The Compact by Design initiative is part of our broader commitment to sustainability at Amazon. We understand that every little step towards efficiency and waste reduction can make a meaningful difference, and we are dedicated to exploring innovative ways to minimize our environmental impact. Whether it's through the use of concentrated ingredients, optimized packaging, or other design improvements, we are constantly seeking opportunities to create more sustainable products for our customers.

As a company, we believe that sustainability is not just a buzzword, but a fundamental responsibility. By focusing on small, incremental changes that add up to significant reductions in carbon emissions, we are working towards a more sustainable future for all. We invite our customers to join us in this journey, as together we can make a lasting, positive impact on our planet.
