Basic overview of the packaging industry

Packaging has more and more applications in modern society due to its multiple functions of protecting commodities, facilitating circulation, facilitating consumption, promoting sales and increasing added value. Its downstream involves food, electronics, medicine, daily chemicals, tobacco, home appliances, and electromechanical. Waiting for all walks of life in the national economy is an indispensable part of commodity circulation. As a big country in packaging manufacturing and consumption, after more than 30 years of development, China's packaging industry has formed a modern industrial system with paper, plastic, metal, glass, printing and machinery as its main components, a certain modern technology and equipment, and a complete range of products.

The development trend of China's plastic packaging industry

1 environmentally friendly requirements for plastic packaging are getting higher and higher

Environmental problems in the 21st century are becoming increasingly important, resources and energy are becoming more tense, and plastic packaging will usher in new opportunities and will be subject to severe challenges. In order to meet the requirements of the new era, plastic packaging materials not only need to meet the increasing requirements of packaging quality and efficiency, but also further require them to save energy, resources, easy to recycle after use or easily degraded by the environment. In recent years, new degradable plastic packaging materials such as photodegradable plastics, biodegradable plastics and water-soluble plastics have become hotspots in the research and development of packaging materials at home and abroad.

2 The use of high-tech and high-end equipment in plastic packaging is increasing

In recent years, a large number of high-tech such as non-adhesive compounding, aseptic packaging technology, and degradable plastic manufacturing have been promoted in the plastic packaging industry, which has effectively promoted the improvement of the production level of plastic packaging industry and the upgrading of products; In terms of technical equipment, China's packaging machinery and equipment manufacturing level has gradually reached or approached the advanced level of the developed countries by introducing and digesting advanced technological equipment in the fields of foreign packaging printing and plastic film.

3 The trend of lightweight packaging of plastic packaging is becoming more and more obvious

Lightweight is a common industrial term in the field of packaging, which is to produce packaging with less material and to reduce weight in packaging. Reducing the weight of the package helps protect the environment and reduce costs. When a plastic package is successfully implemented and lightened, the resin material used in the plastic molding process is reduced, which not only saves resources and costs, but also effectively reduces waste after packaging use. Protected the environment.

4 plastic packaging applications are becoming more widespread

The plastic packaging is light in weight, occupies less shelf space, has low transportation cost, and has good barrier properties and tensile strength. The plastic packaging of the additive has certain advantages in flame retardant performance. Therefore, plastic materials have formed an alternative trend for glass products and metal products in some fields, especially in hard containers and flexible packaging.
