Its integrated operations encompass the full packaging value chain, from raw material sourcing to finished goods, with an emphasis on sustainable and recyclable solutions for a broad range of end markets.
The group’s roots date back to 1934 with the founding of Jefferson Smurfit & Sons in Ireland. In 2005, a landmark merger between Jefferson Smurfit Group and Kappa Packaging in continental Europe gave birth to Smurfit Kappa as it is known today. Over the decades, the company has expanded through both organic growth and strategic acquisitions, continually enhancing its technology, production capacity and geographic footprint.
Smurfit Kappa’s product portfolio includes corrugated cases, trays and speciality packaging; rigid and semi‐rigid containerboard; and paper‐based bag‐in‐box systems for liquid packaging. The company also offers design and prototyping services, digital printing capabilities and supply chain support to help customers optimize their packaging performance and sustainability goals across industries such as consumer goods, e‐commerce, food and beverage, industrial and pharmaceuticals.
