The Power of Less report

Where Packaging’s role in a circular economy becomes clear.

Through interviews with key industry players, the report details the challenges of the management of packaging in the supply cycle, explaining how solutions can be found through packaging design and recycling.

Today packaging is more relevant than ever and the benefits of a strategic and sustainable packaging solution can help reduce complexity and cost, manage risk and support growth opportunities.

The Power of Less was exclusively launched at Resource 2015 at the Excel Arena London, the largest free-to-attend circular economy event in the UK, where DS Smith was lead partner.

As a leading provider of packaging and recycling solutions we showed thousands of business professionals how the way to circular becomes clear through the crucial role packaging plays in the circular economy.
