Paper packaging will become the future direction of high-grade food packaging
As we all know, the prosperity of any industry will promote the rapid development of other industries. The brutal growth of the e-commerce industry has led to the boom of the logistics express industry, and the prosperity of the automobile industry has stimulated the demand for the oil industry. Similarly, higher sales in the food industry will naturally make the food packaging industry progress together.
For food, packaging not only serves as a container, but also ensures the quality and prolongs the selling period. In the past, packaging materials in the food industry were widely used in glass packaging, metal packaging, paper packaging and plastic packaging.
Because glass and metal packaging are relatively expensive and bulky compared with plastic packaging and paper packaging, most foods are packaged in paper or plastic, except for special foods. However, in the future, food packaging materials may be more and more limited to paper packaging.
With the improvement of social and economic level and the deepening of civilization, the state and government pay more and more attention to environmental protection. In recent years, China has repeatedly issued environmental protection policies, and local governments have promulgated laws and regulations, which has greatly deepened the impression of environmental awareness in people's minds. People's demand for environmental protection has naturally increased.
According to the survey, the amount of plastic in food packaging accounts for 1/4 of the total plastic production. In supermarkets and shopping malls, food packaged with plastic is ubiquitous. The plastic packaging of puffed food and the plastic covering of instant noodles not only cause the waste of resources caused by over-packaging, but also form a lot of white garbage.
The amount of garbage produced by plastic packaging is incalculable and difficult to decompose. Landfill in the soil is difficult to decay, causing great harm to land resources and water resources. Even if burned by fire, the generated gas will still pollute the air and damage people's health.
Therefore, at least in high-end food, plastic packaging will be less and less used in the future, and paper packaging will replace it. Compared with glass packaging and metal packaging, paper packaging has lower cost, easier manufacture, lighter quality and easier processing.
At the same time, compared with plastic packaging, paper packaging is easy to degrade and recycle, and has little impact on the environment. With the gradual improvement of people's awareness of environmental protection and the emergence of zero packaging, simple packaging and green packaging, the global industrial and economic system has taken a great advantage
In addition, paper packaging is moving towards the perspective of aesthetic improvement. More and more people find that paper packaging not only is fashionable and beautiful, but also reflects a delicate and generous characteristics. For example, the traditional festivals such as Valentine's Day or Qixi Festival, which used plastic packaging in the past, used paper packaging, which not only foils the charming and beautiful characteristics of flowers, but also reflects the high-end atmosphere.
In the food industry, besides the fried food and milk beverage, which had been packaged in paper, such as disposable lunch boxes, chocolate and other desserts have gradually expanded to paper packaging. It can be predicted that in the near future, under the global environment of calling for green packaging, the food packaging industry will usher in greater opportunities. Paper packaging will become the main trend of the future food industry.
When opportunities arise, challenges will naturally arise.
The changes in food packaging will also bring about certain reforms in enterprises. Industrial transformation, thinking transformation, method transformation and other issues will gradually reflect in this wave of trends. How to find the gaps in the industry, how to accelerate technological innovation, how to enhance service improvement, and how to gain the upper hand in the industry are all challenges worth pondering.
