Amazon has launched its packaging initiative for Amazon Fresh in Spain, introducing bio-based bags for grocery deliveries. Developed in collaboration with Italian chemicals company Novamont, the bags are made from vegetable-based materials, like corn starch and vegetable oils, produced in Europe. The first trials of the bio-based bags, created from Novamont’s Mater-bi material, are underway in Valencia for Amazon Fresh orders. These food-safe, weather-resistant bags are biodegradable and free from microplastic.
