As e-commerce rapidly expands in Indonesia, plastic waste from single-use packaging has become a major environmental challenge. While online shopping offers convenience, the widespread use of cardboard boxes, bubble wrap, and plastic mailers has led to excessive waste, much of which ends up in landfills or pollutes rivers and oceans. Recognising this issue, Repax was founded to provide a practical, reusable packaging alternative – helping businesses and consumers reduce plastic waste while maintaining efficient shipping practices.
The Need for Sustainable Packaging
Repax was created in response to growing concerns amongst environmentally conscious consumers frustrated by the accumulation of plastic packaging waste. While many businesses and shoppers wanted sustainable solutions, viable alternatives that balanced convenience, durability, and affordability were limited. Inspired by successful reusable packaging systems in other countries, Repax introduced a solution tailored to Indonesia’s e-commerce landscape – significantly reducing plastic consumption in logistics.
Innovative Reusable Packaging Solutions
Since its launch, Repax has collaborated with designers and e-commerce merchants to develop durable, returnable packaging options that replace single-use materials and minimise waste. Its core products include:
Re-Bag – A waterproof, flexible, and reusable mailer, offering a sustainable alternative to poly mailers for shipping clothing, bags, and accessories.
Re-Box – A shock-resistant, padded, and reusable box that eliminates the need for bubble wrap while providing extra protection for fragile items.
Cold Box – A specialised reusable container designed for fresh and frozen goods, ensuring safe transportation with minimal plastic waste.
Each Repax packaging solution is tamper-proof, weather-resistant, and built for multiple reuse cycles, allowing businesses to reduce their reliance on disposable materials without compromising shipping efficiency or product safety.
A Seamless, Cost-Effective Model for Businesses
Repax offers a risk-free subscription model, enabling businesses to integrate returnable packaging across various logistics needs, including:
- Food and beverage brands operating from central kitchens.
- Retail companies shipping products to multiple outlets.
- B2B e-commerce platforms with frequent shipments to customers.
By eliminating the need for businesses to procure new packaging for every order, Repax helps reduce operational costs while ensuring a seamless return process through logistics partners.
Scaling Impact for a Greener Future
Repax continues to expand its network of merchants, driving the adoption of returnable packaging solutions across Indonesia. As awareness of plastic waste’s environmental impact grows, the company remains committed to making sustainable packaging widely accessible and practical for both businesses and consumers.
By providing an innovative, eco-friendly alternative, Repax is paving the way for a more responsible approach to e-commerce logistics – reducing plastic pollution while maintaining efficiency and convenience.
