This project aims to assist the Resource Circulation Administration, Ministry of Environment in promoting innovative circular services for online shopping. The tasks include implementing the reusable packaging service model, conducting an inventory of the carbon footprint of reusable packaging materials, planning a circular resource management platform, and promoting and supporting relevant initiatives for online shopping circular services. In response to the outcomes of promoting the reusable packaging service model, five Special Interest Group (SIG) meetings were conducted. Recommendations for two standard specifications of universal reusable bags and the design of a circular logo were provided. During the trial period of the Property Management Recycling Model, the shipment of reusable packaging materials exceeded 2,000 person-times, with the recovery of 1,641 pieces of reusable packaging materials. A comprehensive analysis and recommendations for the model were subsequently formulated based on the trial results. Regarding the outcomes of the carbon footprint assessment of reusable packaging materials, analysis of three international cases (Germany, Singapore, and the United States) was completed. A standardized design document for the Product Category Rules (PCR) of reusable packaging material carbon footprints was established. Additionally, the calculation of the carbon footprint for one type of reusable packaging material was completed, leading to strategic recommendations for promoting domestic reusable packaging materials based on the findings. As for the outcomes of the circular resource management platform planning, a report analyzing the operational processes and data requirements of the resource management platform was completed. Additionally, a document outlining the system architecture and functional specifications for the circular resource management platform was produced, laying the groundwork for the subsequent establishment of the reusable packaging material management system. Two promotional events for online shopping circular services were successfully conducted, and 56 administrative and technical support tasks, including planning and execution, were accomplished.
