Development prospects of the plastic packaging industry

(I) Rapid development of pharmaceutical packaging

It is a consensus that pharmaceutical packaging will develop rapidly in the next few years, with good prospects and large space. In the future, single-dose packaging of pharmaceuticals is a development trend, and foreign pharmaceutical companies have also flooded into the Chinese market. Chinese pharmaceutical packaging companies must seize this opportunity to strengthen their independent research and development capabilities and improve the quality of packaging materials. In the future, the oligopoly trend of pharmaceutical companies will become increasingly apparent, and their procurement will be grouped. This is a severe challenge, which requires pharmaceutical packaging companies to look beyond and implement the development strategy of going global; they must continue to innovate on new materials and new products, establish their own research and development teams, and need independent packaging products. Take the road of fine packaging and green packaging.

二 (2) The development potential of the cosmetic plastic packaging industry is huge

With the rapid development of China's cosmetics industry and plastic packaging industry, and the future development of plastic packaging materials for cosmetics is constantly established, China's cosmetics packaging industry is rapidly growing at a rate much higher than GDP. In the next five years, China's cosmetics plastic packaging industry The average annual growth rate of demand will exceed 15%.

The value of the industrial plastic packaging industry's industrial chain is concentrated at both ends of product design and channel services. The cosmetic plastic packaging industry has shifted from a mode of relying only on output and price advantages in the early stages of development to a comprehensive supporting service model. The competition pattern of the cosmetics plastic packaging industry is that foreign capital occupies high-end, and the share of domestic capital leaders gradually increases. The goals of the international cosmetics plastic packaging giants are mainly positioned in the global high-end market, and domestic enterprises are mainly positioned in the domestic market. In the future, the market share of domestic leading domestic enterprises is expected to gradually increase. Tongchan Lixing is a leading enterprise in the domestic cosmetic plastic packaging industry. The company is committed to the production and sales of high-end cosmetic plastic packaging and the research and production of supporting molds. At present, Tongxing Lixing has become the absolute leader of the domestic cosmetics plastic packaging fine molecule industry.

三 (3) Benzene-free printing technology will become the mainstream of food packaging materials

At present, China's food plastic packaging safety situation is very grim, and many food plastic packaging materials on the market are difficult to meet national requirements for food safety, hygiene and environmental protection. Most of the inks printed on composite packaging bags are organic solvent-based gravure inks containing toluene and xylene.

At present, China's flexible packaging inks are close to 50,000 tons, of which chlorinated polypropylene inks account for more than 40%, polyamide inks account for more than 30%, polyester polyurethane inks account for approximately 20%, and other alcohol-based properties due to the presence of alcohol-resistant The disadvantages of poor temperature resistance, poor oil resistance, and poor water resistance, the amount of use is decreasing year by year. Chlorinated polypropylene ink has the fastest adhesion to BOPP and has become the most widely used variety in China. However, due to residual chlorine and toluene and other aromatic hydrocarbons introduced in the production of ink, its use as a solvent may cause food pollution. , Does not meet environmental protection requirements, which brings great unsafe use.

Polyester polyurethane ink is developing rapidly due to its many modified varieties, wide application range, temperature resistance, good water resistance, high printing gloss, low toxicity, and is gradually accelerating the pace of replacing chlorinated polypropylene ink. Although alcohol-soluble inks are currently used less frequently, their growth rate is also accelerating. More and more enterprises are using alcohol-soluble inks in combination with two-component polyurethane adhesives to reduce the use and emissions of toluene.

At present, there are more and more types of green food on the market, but many green foods do not use green packaging. Green packaging should use environmentally friendly packaging materials, printing inks and adhesives. The 21st century is a century of environmental protection. Environmental issues are becoming increasingly important, and resources and energy resources are becoming more intense. Building a circular economy and society and taking the road of sustainable development have become the focus and urgent task of global attention, and have become the norm for the development of all walks of life and human activities.
