Eco-friendly packaging solutions would remove a large amount of waste from landfills and places where those materials become litter, like the oceans.

"Eco-friendly packaging solutions are shipment materials that don’t produce environmental waste during manufacturing or after arriving at consumers’ doorsteps. Enough global companies use them that the eco-friendly packaging industry is worth $292.71 billion and will continue to grow through 2029. As long as consumers can place orders online or in stores, packaging materials will be necessary for every business sector.

"Companies may switch to plant-based packaging for various business reasons, but consumer demand is among the most crucial. Experts estimate that 60%-70% of consumers will pay more for green shipping materials. They may opt for green, eco-friendly packaging due to their sustainable lifestyles or general concern for the planet’s well-being." - Mia Barnes
