Market prospect of China's plastic packaging industry in 2021

1. More secure and stable performance
In order to ensure the safety of packaged food, the performance of packaging materials is particularly important. For example, fatty food requires high oxygen and oil resistance, dry food requires high moisture resistance, aromatic food requires high aroma retention, fresh fruit and vegetable food requires high air permeability, and the bottle cap of drinking water requires stable air tightness and easy opening. In addition, the packaging materials should have high tensile strength, tear resistance, impact resistance, excellent chemical stability, no chemical reaction with the food inside to ensure the safety of the contents.
2. Environmentally friendly and recyclable materials
Environmental protection packaging can reduce environmental pollution, maintain ecological balance, and is conducive to building a low-carbon economy and resource-saving society. The environmental protection of plastic packaging and container manufacturing industry is mainly reflected in the degree of recycling, and its main technologies are plastic recycling processing technology, degradable technology and so on. The high recycling of plastics can improve and eliminate the hidden danger of white pollution caused by plastic packaging materials, and enhance the utilization rate of resources. In the future, with the continuous research and development of new materials, new materials will give full play to the function of packaging materials, reduce and eliminate the pollution of plastic packaging materials to the ecological environment, and improve the safety and environmental performance of plastic packaging.
3. Ultra thin and lightweight products
Under the condition of meeting the existing functions, the development of plastic packaging towards lightweight and ultra-thin is the inevitable trend of the future development of the industry. Packaging lightweight can not only reduce the consumption of packaging raw materials, but also reduce the unit energy consumption and cost of products in the process of logistics and transportation. It can bring considerable economic benefits for enterprises, alleviate people's concerns about environmental protection and sustainable development, and realize a win-win situation between enterprise economic benefits and social public interests.
4. Automatic and intelligent production process
With the continuous improvement of the level of science and technology and the upgrading and adjustment of the industrial structure of China's manufacturing industry, the computer-aided fully automated production line is becoming the development trend of the industry. The popularization of automatic production technology greatly shortens the production cycle, improves the production efficiency, so as to meet the purpose of maximizing benefits and minimizing production costs. Automation and intelligent technology of plastic packaging industry will be the development trend of the industry.
