pecially as 89 percent of consumers report receiving more or the same number of boxes since the pandemic began. “As online shopping continues to grow, more deliver- ies mean more cardboard packaging entering the home,” adds Ushpol, “We realize that recycling is increasingly a personal decision for the consumer, so we’re encouraging cardboard recycling at every level because those fibers are reusable, and by doing so, consumers can feel good about taking positive action for their environment.” DS Smith, in its operations, supports a circular econ- omy that aims to reduce and eliminate waste and advo- cates for the reuse of materials, including its box-to-box in 14 days model that ensures boxes are collected, recycled and turned into new boxes within two weeks. In 2020, in partnership with the Ellen MacArthur Foun- dation, the company launched its Circular Design Princi- ples, centered around optimizing design for sustainability and waste reduction; and in 2021 it unveiled its Circular Design Metrics, an industry first that allows customers to rate the circularity of their packaging. About The Survey The survey was conducted online April 1-5, 2021, among 1,020 Americans who have the same amount or more boxes lying around from online shopping compared to pre-pandemic. The margin of error is plus or minus three percentage points.
