By GlobalDataIn addition to the above commitment, BGZ brands will use soy-based ink on its packaging, which produces 20% lesser volatile organic compounds (VOCs) seen in petroleum-based inks.
It also pledges to leverage eco-friendly resources, including the use of bioplastics and recycled materials while its Lander products are made of recycled ocean plastics derived materials.
As part of this commitment, the company established partnerships with ocean plastic recycling company Repreve.
BGZ brands will also introduce multiple fulfilment centres for online and retail orders, thereby emitting lower carbon and faster shipping times for customers. It also reduced the size of its shipping boxes, which are made of 100% recyclable materials.
