31 Mar 2020 --- DS Smith has developed special emergency provision boxes to meet increased demand for safer home delivery in the food retail sector as the global COVID-19 outbreak intensifies. In line with social distancing and self-isolation guidelines, the new boxes can be stacked in delivery vans, picked up and dropped off to vulnerable consumers while supporting the safety of the workers involved. The launch comes as the UK Recycling Association warns of looming European and potentially worldwide shortages of paper and cardboard, which are essential to the distribution of food and medical supplies.
