Challenge : New standards imposed
The Ministry of Health and ANSES (France’s National Agency for food security, the environment and work) recently dusted off funeral regulations that had not changed since 1967. Now all coffins used in cremations must meet rigorous standards validated through mechanical testing and climactic, atmospheric and specific emissions.
Our Approach : Collaboration and Innovation
Collaboration between DS Smith and abCrémation resulted in a unique, patented product that offers families a funeral with an ecologically and economically responsible approach.
abCrémation company's founder, Brigitte Sabatier welcomes its collaboration with DS Smith:
Mutual trust established from the beginning of the partnership has enabled us to grow a little known product and move from a niche, local market to an international market.— Brigitte Sabatier, abCrémation's founder
