DS Smith launches new sustainable packaging solution for temperature sensitive deliveries

LONDON (News release) -- Nowadays is becoming more and more clear that consumer shopping habits drastically changed over the past months. The response to the Covid-19 pandemic was translated into an acceleration of e-commerce market. Indeed, recent research from DS Smith revealed that European consumers plan to continue or increase buying groceries online (62%) and order home meal kits (49%). What consumers do worry about, is the packaging that their order arrives in. Or more specifically: its impact on the environment.

To answer the sustainability challenges raised by the growth in e-commerce, DS Smith and TemperPack are partnering to introduce ClimaCell®, a sustainable thermal insulation barrier for temperature sensitive goods such as meal kits, perishable groceries and medical products.

How does it work?
A combined pack will include:
*a transport box - to protect and ship the content
*insulation material - the thermal barrier between the inside and outside temperature (ClimaCell®)
*and cooling agent (e.g. Gel packs)- to maintain the required temperature inside

Leading alternative for your sustainable thermal shipments
