Shinsegae Department Store will expand its use of cooler boxes made from recycled paper to protect the environment. On the 17th, Shinsegae Department Store announced, ``Environmentally friendly cooler boxes containing frozen meat products.''
We have minimized the impact on the environment by using recycled paper pulp that naturally biodegrades." As a result, the proportion of environmentally friendly packaging among all gift sets has increased to 85%.
Shinsegae is constantly conducting research into environmentally friendly packaging materials. First, this New Year, customers will be able to enjoy all of Shinsegae Department Store Food Hall's products, from wine to fresh and processed foods.
We have introduced a hamper box that can be packaged together. The Shinsegae Design Team participated in the production of the hamper box, focusing not only on the practice of environmentally friendly consumption but also on design.
