The solution offers corrugated buffers with an anti-scratch coating to protect the product.
The design aims to enhance the unboxing experience, with the coffee machine centrally displayed and surrounded by bold visuals and artwork.
The packaging’s performance was assessed using DS Smith’s Circular Design Metrics (CDM) tool, which rates the impact of packaging designs on various sustainability indicators, including renewable content, recyclability, and supply chain optimisation.
This tool helps DS Smith to understand the product’s sustainability performance and identify areas for improvement.
