The beauty of the Circular Economy
The Circular Economy is the alternative to the take, make and discard mindset.
It is based on the principles of designing out waste and pollution, keeping materials in use for longer and regenerating natural systems to create a more sustainable, beautiful world.
It’s about creating an economy that works in harmony with our natural world.
With our circular packaging solutions, DS Smith can be your gateway to the Circular Economy. We can help you by designing more sustainable packaging solutions, reaching your environmental goals and meeting your customers’ growing demands for more sustainable packaging.
What does the Circular Economy mean for you?
The Circular Economy is not a compromise. It means a more beautiful future for us and the planet, that also makes financial sense.
As far as packaging is concerned, it means not using more materials than necessary, optimizing your supply chain, using recycled materials as second nature, and making sure it can be recycled or reused.
Our circular solutions will help you look at your packaging differently. Together we can rethink your designs to be more sustainable
And we know you customers cares about that. A lot.
The Circular Economy, a simple but powerful concept that will shape our future for the better
The Circular economy, a simple but powerful concept that will shape our future for the better.
Our world and how we consume has been shaped in a linear way, we take, make, and throw away – We don’t use resources; we use them up.
But where others see linear problems, we see circular solutions.
We have over 700 designers and innovators, who think and create with Circular Design Principles. Principles we have developed in collaboration with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation.
A partnership we are proud of as they challenge us to be and do our best.
We think in cycles to design out waste, we value our natural resources, and we will revive natural systems.
Every cycle has to start somewhere.
Let us be your gateway to the circular economy.
Together, we can Start the Cycle.
