Product Sustainability
As part of our mission to be Earth’s most customer-centric company, we are working to give our customers access to more sustainable products, from thousands of Amazon-branded products we develop and manufacture, to millions of retail and third-party items sold in Amazon’s store.
Product Sustainability
Amazon’s sustainable shopping initiatives give customers the chance to buy more sustainable products. We are committed to helping customers find products that exceed the social and environmental benefits of comparable options when they shop in our stores.
Helping Customers Discover More Sustainable Products

Climate Pledge Friendly products are clearly labelled in shopping results and have additional sustainability information on their product pages.
Sustainable Product Development
Amazon works with the suppliers of our branded products to drive sustainability improvements across the stages of material sourcing, design, manufacturing and customer use. Our global teams also work closely with our suppliers to communicate our human rights standards and help suppliers build their capacity to provide safe and respectful working environments.

Amazon Chemicals Policies
-
Restricted Substance ListWe seek to avoid having any of these chemicals in our Amazon-owned Private Brands baby, household cleaning, personal care and beauty products in the US and Europe.
-
Food Contact MaterialsFor our Amazon Kitchen-brand products, we seek to avoid the intentional addition of this list of chemicals to our food contact packaging.
We are making Amazon devices more sustainable, from how we build them to how our customers use them. We incorporate recycled materials into many new Amazon devices, giving new life to materials that could otherwise end up in waste streams. We have also developed features like Low Power Mode to reduce the energy devices consume during periods of inactivity over their lifetime. In 2020, we added Low Power Mode to the latest models of Echo and Fire TV devices and are rolling out free over-the-air updates to bring Low Power Mode to older models of devices already in customers’ homes.
