Turn discarded PET bottles into delivery boxes! Foodpanda promotes low-carbon riders and sustainable riding
2025-04-07
On the 26th, German company foodpanda announced that it has developed a "recyclable delivery box" made from discarded plastic bottles, and simultaneously shared its environmental protection achievements, including the number of environmentally friendly stores exceeding 2,500, the continued promotion of the zero food waste plan, saving nearly 5,000 kilograms of rice and noodles, and the continued promotion of "low-carbon riders" to create a more environmentally friendly delivery ecosystem.

foodpanda's PR and public affairs director, Xinyi Guo, said in a press release that she hopes to improve the sustainability standards of the food delivery industry through environmental protection actions, so that consumers can become part of the environmental revolution while enjoying food delivery services.
 
On the 26th, German company foodpanda announced that it has teamed up with Taiwanese company deya to develop "recyclable delivery boxes". Deya founder Xu Nengjun said that the delivery boxes use green technology solutions to achieve recycling, reuse and reuse, and are in line with the SDG 12th responsible production goal of responsible consumption and production, and are completed using the deya closed-loop sustainable recycling system.
 
Foodpanda explained that each "recycled delivery box" uses an average of 40 recycled plastic bottles. Through cleaning, decomposition and remaking methods, Deya transforms these discarded plastic bottles into high-quality rPET (recycled polyester) yarns, which are further processed into special fabrics for delivery boxes. A total of about 60,000 discarded plastic bottles are used to make 1,500 recycled delivery boxes, extending the resource use cycle, effectively reducing the use of new plastics, and implementing the goals of "resource recycling" and "waste re-valuation".
