Resource Efficient Distribution

Reducing product damage and optimising packaging  both represent opportunities to significantly reduce the environmental impacts associated with distribution of products.   

Home Improvement 

WRAP is working with industry-leading home improvement retailers, builder’s merchants, logistics suppliers, and the packaging sector to explore resource efficient distribution of home improvement products.  

The group has examined the underlying policy context behind resource efficient distribution and has identified two areas of focus; product damage reduction (and associated packaging optimisation) and re-usable packaging.
