About

At DS Smith Recycling, we provide integrated recycling and waste management services, ranging from simple recycling collections through to full recycling and waste management solutions to businesses of all sizes.

We are Europe’s largest cardboard and paper recyclers, and one of the leading full recycling and waste management companies.

As part of the DS Smith Group – a leading supplier of sustainable packaging solutions, we have a crucial role to play in providing our Packaging and Paper divisions with the quality raw materials they need for their businesses.

We believe that any materials that can be recycled should not end up in incineration, as our aim is to turn 100% of the resources you send us into something useful once more. In fact, we’ve been diverting waste away from landfill and driving forward quality recycling for more than 40 years.
