Five trends in plastic packaging market
Five trends in plastic packaging market
Because of the different nature of commodities, there will be different results in the selection of packaging materials, which also forms the continuous expansion of the types of packaging materials involved in today's packaging industry. Although plastic packaging materials have not yet achieved the goal of environmental protection, it is still the most common part of the packaging industry. According to the analysis, the plastic packaging material market will present the following trend in the future.
Packaging lightweight
Lightweight is a commonly used industrial vocabulary, which is used to describe the practice of reducing packaging weight by using fewer materials. Lightweight materials are becoming more and more popular in the field of packaging. Almost every kind of plastic packaging emphasizes this point on the shape and structure. Reducing the weight and thickness of packaging materials is faced with many challenges. Lightweight packaging needs to maintain the original packaging performance and function, which is a major test for the production technology of lightweight packaging materials. In the past few years, through a series of material innovation and technological progress, packaging lightweight has made great progress.
Functional film
In recent years, the market momentum of plastic film is positive, which is obviously higher than that of traditional packaging materials, such as paper packaging, cardboard, aluminum foil and other markets. At the same time, packaging film is thinner and more functional, which promotes the growth of this market at a higher speed. In such a fast-growing market, more and more companies will invest in functional films in the future, so as to accelerate technological innovation and promote the emergence of new products.
Bio plastics
As we all know, oil is a rare and non renewable resource. The imbalance of oil reserves in various countries and the predatory exploitation of oil resources by developed countries have become an important factor causing the world turbulence. Therefore, the development of biodegradable materials and reducing the consumption of petrochemical resources have gradually become the consensus of all countries in the world, especially developed countries. In recent years, the development of related technology is very rapid, more and more bioplastics appear in the field of packaging.
In mold labeling package
As early as more than 10 years ago, the in mold labeling technology has been introduced into China's plastic packaging market, and has caused a great sensation in the industry. However, due to the constraints of various factors, it has not been able to make a breakthrough in domestic development, and its market share is still very small. Fortunately, in the past two years, the domestic internal label packaging market, which has been covered by solid ice for many years, has been revitalized, setting off a small upsurge in the plastic packaging market. Especially in the field of FMCG packaging, under the pressure of rising labor cost, there are not a few FMCG enterprises that investigate and adopt the in mold labeling packaging technology in the market.
Convenient packaging
In the past, packaging has done enough work in terms of shelf display, protection and convenient transportation, but there are still insufficient in terms of packaging convenience. Nowadays, with the improvement of living standards and the acceleration of social rhythm, consumers' requirements for packaging are constantly improving, so as to promote the innovation and development of packaging in convenience. In the past, many plastic packages had to be opened with the help of teeth or scissors, but now most of these packages have a more convenient and quick way to open.
