Movopack and the future of e-commerce packaging

The start-up Movopack is on a mission to revolutionize the e-commerce industry – by providing reusable and returnable packaging solutions. In this episode of Greiner Talks, our host Alexander Berth invited Tomaso Torriani, the co-founder and CEO of Movopack, to discuss the innovative strides his company is making when it comes to sustainable packaging for e-commerce. 

Tomaso Torriani, speaking from his office in Milan, shared his passion for sustainability and the journey that led him to co-found Movopack with two lifelong friends, Alberto Cisco, and Andrea Cipollone. Movopack’s core offering is a catalog of reusable packaging products, both flexible and rigid, designed for e-commerce shipments. Customers receive their orders in Movopack packaging, which can then be folded into a small envelope and returned via any post box in Europe using a prepaid shipping label. This innovative approach not only reduces waste but also ensures that packaging can be reused multiple times, boasting a refurbishment rate of 98 percent.

One of the significant milestones for Movopack was securing a deal with Royal Mail, the UK’s national postal service. This collaboration allows Movopack to provide efficient return logistics within the UK, enhancing their service’s overall efficiency and sustainability. Greiner played a decisive role in this: Tomaso Torriani highlighted the importance of their collaboration with Greiner Innoventures, Greiner’s corporate business angel, which provided crucial funding and support.
