Objectives
Microsoft has committed to becoming zero waste across its direct operations, products, and packaging by 2030, including eliminating single-use plastic from its packaging by 2025. As part of this target, the company has undertaken a global effort to reduce the use of single-use plastic for servers and components within its datacenter operations.
This objective of the project was to bring together companies from across the industry, to explore alternative solutions to traditional and linear, single-use pallet stretch wrap.
