In addition to e-commerce platforms, express delivery companies are also participating in the research and development and promotion of packaging products that are easy to recycle and regenerate at the end.

Express outlets will be removed from the customer's waste plastic packaging recycling and sent to a fixed recycling enterprise, according to the technical requirements, the newly produced packaging contains 30% recycled plastic, and will be returned to the Courier enterprise for use, forming a set of recycling closed-loop packaging scale application mode.
