At present, the development direction of China's packaging paper is high-strength, low-weight, multi-functional; development of medium and high-grade cartons products, with emphasis on multi-color corrugated cartons, to meet the needs of cartons at home and abroad; to develop new technologies and products for the packaging of cellular products, In order to gradually replace wood product packaging; full use of China's renewable natural resources, the development of straw (grain molding) packaging industry as a raw material, to replace the foam plastic production cutlery boxes, trays and industrial products packaging products.
According to experts, paper and plastic are cheap and easy to process, and raw materials are widely available. Therefore, paper and plastic packaging are widely used in daily life. However, due to the fact that plastic packaging materials are not easy to degrade on their own and cause problems such as environmental pollution, it is determined by international authoritative experts that paper is a promising green packaging material.
It is reported that in the food and instrument industry, paper container packaging has largely replaced tin cans and aluminum cans. In paper packaging containers, paper bags are the most widely used and therefore the largest proportion. Grain products, such as rice, flour, etc., are packed in paper containers, fresh fruits, vegetables, etc. are also used in paper bags, and even some fruits that are afraid of pressure are first packed in paper bags and then packed in cartons. Nowadays, the development direction of paper products in the world is that the products are versatile, such as moisture-proof, fresh-keeping, heat preservation, sterilization, anti-corrosion and other functions, so as to better protect and preserve foods.
In recent years, China's paper packaging has achieved rapid development, but compared with the international market, it still appears to be lagging behind. It still needs to further improve the performance and cost of packaging paper, paper packaging machinery and packaging technology, and design of paper packaging containers. Accelerate the pace of research and development. This involves the cooperation of papermaking, machinery, packaging and other industries. The development of paper packaging containers will not only bring many business opportunities, but also be a powerful measure for environmental protection.
