Compact by Design, a program created by us, aims to identify products that, despite not always appearing very different, possess a more efficient design. Through the removal of excess air and water, these products require less packaging, making them more efficient to ship. At scale, these minor differences in product size and weight result in substantial reductions in carbon emissions.
Sustainability is the primary focus. Small changes in product size and weight can lead to lower carbon emissions. Here are just a few of the many ways products can qualify for the Compact by Design program:
One way is by reducing the amount of packaging material used. This can be achieved through more efficient product design, which eliminates the need for excessive packaging. By minimizing the packaging, the overall weight and volume of the product are reduced, leading to lower transportation-related emissions.
Another approach is to optimize the product's water content. Many products, such as personal care items or cleaning solutions, contain a significant amount of water. By formulating these products with a lower water concentration, the overall weight is decreased, resulting in fewer emissions during shipping and distribution.
Similarly, reducing the amount of air within a product's packaging can contribute to Compact by Design qualification. Some products are packaged with excess air space, which adds unnecessary bulk and weight. Designing packaging that minimizes this excess air space can lead to more efficient transportation and reduced carbon footprint.
The Compact by Design program also encourages manufacturers to explore innovative ways to concentrate their products. For instance, by creating more concentrated versions of liquid or powder-based products, the overall size and weight can be reduced without compromising the product's functionality. This translates to lower shipping requirements and, consequently, lower emissions.
Furthermore, the program considers the product's overall design and construction. Products that are engineered to be more compact, with a streamlined form factor and reduced material usage, can qualify for Compact by Design certification. This design-focused approach helps to minimize the environmental impact throughout the product's lifecycle, from manufacturing to transportation and distribution.
By highlighting these types of products, the Compact by Design program aims to incentivize and encourage manufacturers to prioritize sustainability and resource efficiency in their product design and development processes. The ultimate goal is to drive widespread adoption of more eco-friendly and carbon-conscious products, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable future.
