Boox

Boox, a provider of sustainable shipping packaging solutions, offers reusable Boox boxes and bags that integrate with existing fulfillment operations. Boox boxes are fully customizable to meet specific product requirements and can be delivered in reusable shipping containers. Each Boox box includes a unique QR code that facilitates consumer-driven returns by refurbishing returned boxes through its built-in recommerce system for multiple shipments. This encourages customers to participate in take-back programs for hard-to-recycle items and used clothing. It also states that each Boox box can be reused 10+ times before reaching "end of life" and being recycled.

Key customers and partnerships

As of February 2024, Boox operated a network of 65,000+ package return locations, serving customers such as L'Oréal, Guess, H&M, Unilever, Sephora, and Rhode, and was available in the US, UK, and Canada.

In June 2023, the company partnered with ReturnBear, an ecommerce return solution for brands, to introduce its sustainable ecommerce packaging solutions in the Canadian market.

Funding and financials

In April 2023, the company raised USD 1.5 million in an undisclosed round of funding. Boox had also raised USD 9.25 million in a Series A funding round led by Valor Siren Ventures to support planned expansion into new geographies and product and business development.
