SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) – A Hewlett-Packard Co (HPQ.N: Quote, Profile, Research) notebook computer that’s packaged in a recycled bag rather than a box has won a challenge by retailer Wal-Mart Stores Inc (WMT.N: Quote, Profile, Research) for less wasteful packaging.
HP’s Pavilion dv6929, which Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club stores are selling for $798, was singled out for a design that reduces packaging by 97 percent and requires a fourth fewer trucks to deliver to stores, given its smaller size when packaged, Wal-Mart said in a statement.
