Products and Services
Smurfit-Stone produced a wide selection of paper-based packaging products (many of which were "environmentally sustainable"), including corrugated boxes and protective packaging, corrugated pallets, containerboard, kraft paper, market pulp, packaging equipment, and point of purchase displays.
A few examples of Smurfit-Stone’s environmentally sustainable packaging were:
-The eight-sided META case, which provided corrugated packaging that utilizes less material while offering improved stacking strength, stronger shelf impact, and other benefits.
-The EnviroShell, which serves as a recyclable, corrugated alternative to traditional blister packs and includes easily separated and recycled PET inserts. These inserts help lead to EnviroShell’s 89 percent reduction in plastic use compared to the traditional blister packs.
-RecyclaCorr was a fully recyclable product that offered a replacement to wax imbued mediums. It provided strength under both dry and humid conditions and has 100% recycled fiber content. Some common applications of RecyclaCorr included packaging produce, protein, beverages, bakery products, products that sustain freeze/ thaw cycles, and products requiring high humidity storage.
Smurfit-Stone also provided paper and packaging-related services, which included recycling solutions, packaging research and development, and pulp and paper services.
