Dell is using new bamboo packaging materials that are compostable making them easier to dispose of in places other than a dumpster (read landfill). The result is a more sustainable packaging solution.
" ... mechanically pulped bamboo ... will compost and biodegrade ... comparable to known compostable materials ..."
" ... building on its commitment to make ‘being green’ easy and cost-effective for customers. "
So why bamboo ? Bamboo is a natural as it is fast growing, strong and " ... doesn't require replanting after harvest".
