DS Smith released new research which finds that 1.5 million tonnes of plastic could be replaced each year from just five areas within supermarkets across Europe

‘Transforming the Supermarket Aisle’ was developed in conjunction with White Space, the leading growth strategy consultancy. It identifies plastic packaging, such as fresh produce punnets and shrink wrap, which supermarkets can replace with alternative, renewable materials. The five categories identified account for over 70 billion individual units of plastic (over 1.5 million tonnes) per year and are highlighted as targets for reduction and replacement by DS Smith.
