Plastic packaging has been widely optimistic prospects

In the world plastics industry, the largest amount of packaging enterprises, usually accounts for 25% of the total amount of plastic -70% to the plastics industry the most developed States, Japan and Germany, for instance, plastic packaging accounts for 27.2% share of the total consumption of plastics , 32.8% and 27.2%, while China accounted for about 25% of plastic packaging plastics consumption ratios.

    Plastic packaging advantages are: light, soft, less waste, small occupied space, low cost and high cost effectiveness, and therefore more competitive than the rigid packaging, the direction of the plastic material development is to improve performance, reduce costs and environmentally friendly .

    With plastic new varieties, new grades development, processing technology and mechanical improvements to enhance the performance of materials and packaging products, can reduce material consumption and costs, but also with people's demands on the environment.

    According to the European Plastics Manufacturers Association study showed that nearly a decade, the average weight of plastics used in packaging fell 28% reduction in the amount of 1.8 million tons per year, saving resources, including plastic packaging film is most effective, accounting for 70% of savings above, the European packaging materials consumption was 66.4 million tons, of which 11.6 million tons of plastic is 17%, accounting for 50% of packaged goods.

    Therefore we can say, especially plastics plastic packaging is the most effective way to reduce packaging weight, reduce the weight even more than the recovery of a large amount of repeat, the rational use of resources, the role of the maximum.

    Germany "plastic" magazine in the importance of the plastic flexible packaging in food packaging it comes to point out that it has become part of the culture, in addition to the packaging effect, it can prevent damage to the packaging, reduce storage requirements, to consumers provide information more effectively to customer service, so that goods easy home management, and easy to store and transport. This can be represented by the following figures: in developing countries 30% -50% of food in storage and transport damage, while Western European countries currently only 1% -2% of plastic packaging plastic packaging market due to its good overall performance. and low cost, making it one of the fastest growing varieties of packaging.

    It can be seen, the average annual growth rate of plastic packaging consumption in the past and end to all higher than other packaging methods, not only to increase faster than the paper packaging, but also higher than the hard plastic packaging. US data name of the business communications firm plastic packaging industry special report on changing the public provided: total amount of the world's plastic packaging market in 2001 only amounted to 6.31 million tons, the largest amount of food packaging, to 1.68 million tons.

    In short, colorful plastic flexible packaging for its excellent overall performance, continue to replace other packaging, increasing use, reasonable price and benefit the environment and become the fastest-growing products packaging industry, the next few years will continue to maintain good growth.

    To enhance market competitiveness, it will be thin-walled plastic flexible packaging, high-performance direction, multilayer composite membrane demand is growing faster than ordinary single-layer film. The development of new grades and plastics processing technology progress and development of plastic flexible technological progress. Polyethylene films and biaxially oriented polypropylene film applications in coal-ene on the packaging of the most promising.
