As part of the deal, DS Smith Plastics has provided more than 700,000 Akyplen plastic dividers to Correos.

The dividers were supplied among Correos’s 2,000 distribution offices throughout Spain, with an aim to improve the company’s efficiencies in collecting, sorting and transporting letters throughout their mailing operations.
