TailorTemp®
A range of fibre-based temperaturecontrolled packaging solutions to replace EPS for cold chain logistics
The Power of Less®
The Challenge
The pharmaceutical industry has a difficult job – safety and quality must be balanced against cost and environmental impact, and against rising global prices for raw materials and logistics
In the European Union, all agents involved in the pharmaceutical supply chain are required to comply with Good Distribution Practices.
Also, the pressure to manage sustainability risks is intensifying on a global scale, and the Pharma industry is no exception.
60%
of pharma companies are fully committed to circular economy principles and have partially implemented it in their supply chain*
73%
of pharma respondents the most important attribute that packaging could bring to the table is to ensure compliance with the environmental legislation*

Introducing TailorTemp
A bespoke sustainable packaging solution which has been optimised to maintain the safety of temperaturesensitive products throughout the cold chain.
Tailored to Safeguard.
The TailorTemp® advantage
Powered by DS Smith’s predict technology, TailorTemp® is precisely engineered to meet your produ unique requirements.
DS Smith Parametric & Predictive Software
The unique software empowers DS Smith to craft tailored packaging solutions that align with each customer’s specific priorities, like reducing CO2 emissions or minimising total cost. By leveraging predictive technology, the tool accurately forecasts the temperature rise curve. This customised approach allows TailorTemp® to effectively preserve the integrity of temperature-sensitive goods, ensuring their safe and optimal delivery.
Optimised Cold Chain Management
TailorTemp® has been rigorously tested to maintain temperatures between 2-8°C for up to 36 hours, ensuring optimal protection for cold-sensitive pharmaceutical products. The innovative design can be shipped flat to the customer allowing for streamlined, space-saving inbound logistics. It can also be seamlessly integrated into customer operations, without affecting the overall packing process.
Enhanced Sustainability
Designed to be compact, and to reduce the carbon footprint, TailorTemp® is a fibre-based packaging solution that is entirely free of plastic and conveniently curbside recyclable. TailorTemp® solution can be manufactured in full in close proximity to the point of use, unlocking even greater reductions in CO2 emissions through optimised logistics.
Bespoke Packaging Design
Engineered with precision, TailorTemp® accommodates each customer’s unique cold chain requirements. It considers critical factors like product size, initial and final temperatures, transport duration, external temperature profile, and coolant specifications. By inputting these parameters, a bespoke, 100% customized corrugated solution is expertly delivered to ensure optimal product preservation. 4
