Global office products provider Staples has revealed plans to roll out a new e-commerce website which is optimised for shopping on tablet computers. Thus, tablet users who access the Staples website will be automatically redirected to the new tablet-optimised website, dubbed t.staples.com.

The tablet website is set for interactions on a touchscreen. The new platform combines features of Staples' desktop website with its mobile website. Additionally, via the new website, consumers will be able to save their loyalty account details to their tablet.

Staples has also revealed plans to open an e-commerce innovation center in May 2012. The center will allow customers to interact with Staples.
