Green Packaging and Packaging (I)

<

First, the rise of green packaging 1. The emergence of green packaging China began production and use of green packaging materials and products in the mid-1980s, the most typical of which is pulp molding and honeycomb paperboard products. In only a dozen years, with the exception of a few remote mountainous regions, there are signs of green packaging companies everywhere. The national investment in the industry has exceeded 10 billion yuan, and the number of direct employees exceeds 100,000. The annual output of paper pulp is several hundred thousand tons. The production capacity of paper cutlery is more than 5 billion (pieces), and more than 1,000 equipment production lines are used. The total output value exceeds 12 billion yuan.
2. Development status of green packaging (1) Rapid development. Due to the pressure of green packaging for export commodities, the rise of domestic environmental protection undertakings and the support of the government, the rapid development of China's green packaging industry, the increasing use of environment-friendly packaging materials, the gradual increase in market share, and the increasing technological content Some products have also reached the international advanced level and have a better market in the international market. The packaging machinery that produces green packaging products has also seen a boom in production and sales. At the same time, improper packing such as over-packaging and false packaging has gradually intensified, arousing public attention and adopting certain measures to make packaging gradually take the road of normalization. In terms of disposal of packaging waste, a small number of professional packaging waste recycling organizations have been established, and there are industrialization trends.
For example, the disposable snack box recycling website in Beijing was established in September 1997. After the recycling of disposable snack boxes, some of them were crushed and then pelletized by Beijing Baolv Plastics Processing Co., Ltd. to produce various injection-molded products; the other part was from Beijing. Kaifa Environmental Technology Center has produced a series of architectural, decoration, waterproof, and anti-freezing adhesives - "Kaifa Rubber Pa" under special additives and proprietary process conditions, and has achieved good economic and social benefits. In addition, the waste of resources and environmental pollution in the development of the packaging industry, like other industrial environmental issues, are valued by the government and gradually controlled as the environmental protection industry in China develops. What is particularly gratifying is that the concept of green consumption has begun to be accepted by Chinese consumers and the market for the green packaging industry has continued to expand.
(2) Development is one-sided. In the minds of the packaging industry and the general public, green packaging is often regarded as greening of packaging products, and the packaging products made of environmentally-degradable materials are erroneously treated as green packaging, regardless of whether the production of the packaging products caused Environmental pollution and waste of resources, as well as reuse of packaged products after use, have led to some misconceptions about green packaging. If the paper packaging is regarded as a green packaging, the plastic packaging is placed on the opposite side of the green packaging, and even the polyethylene poisoning theory is proposed and the slogan of paper-based plastic molding is fully implemented. As everyone knows, green packaging considers the environmental impact of packaging from the entire life cycle of the product. Paper packaging does not meet the requirements of green packaging if it is improperly recycled, and plastic packaging, if it achieves the goals of reduction, resource recycling, etc., is promoted by green packaging.
Plastics have the advantage that other packaging materials cannot be replaced, and a total ban on plastics will result in greater packaging contamination. China's forest resources are limited, and the pollution of other papermaking raw materials is also difficult to control. It is neither practical nor environmentally friendly to implement paper-based plastics. Moreover, even in developed countries that strictly implement green packaging, plastics are also the most rapidly growing packaging materials. The main measure to reduce the environmental impact of plastics is to strengthen recycling control rather than unilaterally prohibiting it. Therefore, many important aspects of green packaging, such as the reduction of packaging materials, recycling and reuse of packaging waste, have not received corresponding attention. The related green packaging industry is also underdeveloped, especially packaging. The waste recycling industry is still lagging behind.
(3) Unbalanced development. First of all, the time for different companies to implement green packaging is not synchronized, and the earliest green packaging companies are export-oriented enterprises. Such companies are influenced by the international market and have a better understanding of green packaging. They have quickly adjusted their packaging strategies. Enterprises that rely mainly on the domestic market are slow to respond to green packaging. In recent years, they have only begun to engage in green packaging. Secondly, the development of the regions is not balanced, and the green packaging in the economically developed regions has developed rapidly. The green packaging in the central and western regions where the economy is relatively backward has not received sufficient attention and publicity. The development is slow. In the treatment of packaging waste, local policies and laws are inconsistent, resulting in the transfer of packaging pollution to economically underdeveloped areas.
Second, the predicament of the green packaging 1. Economic factors restrict the development of green packaging Due to the use of advanced technology, the company's limited production scale and other reasons, green packaging products are often more expensive than traditional packaging products, so in the competition with traditional packaging products At that time, there was no price advantage, which directly led to the disadvantage of green packaging products in the market competition. Taking various new types of green tableware as an example, the disposable equipment for pulp molded tableware has a high input cost (an annual output of 30 million lunch boxes and an investment of 3 million yuan or more), most of which are intermittent production, low yield, and qualified product cost. At least 0.30 yuan/only. Plant fiber (rice and wheat shell) cutlery is superior to all current foamed polystyrene substitutes in terms of cost, but each box (without lid) is still above 0.2 yuan. Light/biodegradable polypropylene tableware is the most widely used alternative to pulp molded tableware in addition to pulp molded tableware. Its cost is about 0.20 yuan per person. The cost of cardboard cutlery is higher, and each (box) is above 0.40 yuan. Starch utensils cost more than 0.20 yuan, while the cost of disposable foam polystyrene tableware is only 0.07 yuan. It is the price disadvantage that has become the bottleneck restricting the development of green tableware. (To be continued)
