What began as just one person selling cardboard boxes from a garage has grown into a multi-million-pound enterprise, helping organisations of all sizes reduce packaging waste and their environmental impact by providing a better way to buy cardboard boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the past 10 years, Reuseabox has facilitated the reuse of an incredible 10,713,925 boxes. Thanks to tracking the impact, as a result, its customers have achieved remarkable environmental savings by reusing and not purchasing new cardboard boxes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>448,713 tonnes of CO2 saved<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>7.5 billion kWh of energy saved<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>91 billion litres of water saved<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1.57 million trees not cut down<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to these achievements, since becoming a proud member of&nbsp;<strong><em>1% for the Planet<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;in 2023, Reuseabox has planted nearly 300,000 trees and donated over \u00a340,000 to global reforestation projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded in 2015 by <strong>Jack Good<\/strong> shortly after finishing school, Reuseabox began with a single vision, to challenge the notion that cardboard boxes are only \u2018single use.\u2019 Since then, prioritising people and the planet has been integral to the company\u2019s growth and success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A crucial moment came in 2019 with the development of the\u00a0Reuseabox Environmental Calculator Tool\u00a0in partnership with the University of Lincoln. This first-of-its-kind tool within the packaging industry enables customers to measure and track the environmental benefits of reusing boxes, supporting businesses in reducing their Scope 3 emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jack Good, Founder of Reuseabox, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI can\u2019t believe that we\u2019re celebrating a decade of Reuseabox. What started as me selling used cardboard boxes from my parent\u2019s garage has grown into a movement, with thousands of businesses across the UK helping to extend the life of cardboard boxes, simply because it\u2019s better for the planet.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This milestone is only possible thanks to our hard-working team, the Reuseabox community, and our commitment to being purpose-driven in everything we do.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Throughout 2025, Reuseabox will commemorate its 10th anniversary with a series of activities, including special podcast episodes, press and team events, giveaways, and an open day in Autumn, giving&nbsp;suppliers and customers an inside look at what&nbsp;it&nbsp;takes&nbsp;to&nbsp;reuse&nbsp;10 million boxes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reuseabox, the B Corp circular economy packaging company, today announced a year-long celebration for its 10th anniversary, marking a decade of helping businesses reuse cardboard boxes.
