These sustainable features are vetted by 41 reputable third-party certifications, encompassing well-known names such as the Rainforest Alliance and the Forest Stewardship Council.
A recent Amazon-commissioned study of 1,000 Polish shoppers revealed a strong desire for transparency.
67% of respondents prioritise products with positive environmental and social impacts, but more than half (56%) struggle to determine them while shopping.
Consequently, only 21% of Polish respondents consistently grasp a product’s environmental impact when shopping and 67% seek retailers’ assistance in making sustainable choices.

The survey identified the most sought-after sustainable features among Polish shoppers as water efficiency (39%), use of recyclable packaging (39%) and products made with recycled materials (36%).
Food and beverages (51%), cosmetics and beauty (46%), apparel (46%), cleaning products (42%), and electronics and appliances (37%) emerged as the top five product categories in which Polish customers expect to find a wider range of sustainable options.
With the launch of the CPF programme, Amazon Poland is actively addressing this growing demand and empowering the country’s shoppers to make informed, sustainable choices.
