Research and development program

The investment focuses on three areas of research and development:

New materials

  • Accelerating investment in the development of new materials, including new transparent and fully recyclable packaging materials to replace plastic windows in sandwich and takeaway packaging, and new research into alternative natural fibers.
  • Expanding its barrier technologies, such as the recent experience with “Touchguard,” a coating that resists transmission of viruses.
  • Applying science to paper fibers: An in-depth analysis of different fibers in recycled paper and corrugated cardboard to improve strength, flexibility and recyclable properties.

Eliminate waste with smart design

  • Practical analysis of e-commerce supply chains, including measuring acceleration forces on in-transit packages, to reduce waste and prevent damaged parcels.
  • New experiences of strengthening natural paper fibers to improve materials in box design and manufacture. The new technology enables the design of extra fibers from the packaging while improving overall strength and flexibility.
  • 700 DS Smith designers have been trained in circular design, in partnership with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, so that all clients have access to circular packaging services.

The focus of acceleration of new prototypes

  • Creation of “Unit 17”, a new prototyping and testing facility in the United Kingdom, to develop breakthrough innovations. This new facility will accelerate the development of next-generation technology and collaborate with the 50 innovation centers and R&D partners.
