Green packaging industry is changing

In recent years, the rapid development of China's green packaging industry, and the increasing use of environmentally friendly packaging materials, the market share has gradually increased, the technology content is getting higher and higher, and some products have reached the international advanced level. However, relevant people believe that there is still one-sidedness in the development of green packaging in China.
One-sided understanding of the concept of green packaging In many people's minds, green packaging is often one-sidedly understood as the greening of packaging products. Wrongly, packaging products made from easily degradable materials are regarded as green packaging, without asking for the production of packaging products. Whether it causes environmental pollution and waste of resources, or the reuse of packaged products after use, there has been some misunderstanding of 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.
In fact, 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 and recycling, is promoted by green packaging.
Regardless of the national conditions, a paper-based plastic has the advantage that other packaging materials cannot be replaced, and a complete ban on plastics will cause greater packaging pollution. China's forest resources are limited, and the pollution problems of other raw materials for papermaking are also difficult to control. It is neither realistic 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, at present, many important aspects of China's green packaging, such as the reduction of packaging materials, the recycling and recycling of packaging waste, have not received corresponding attention. The related green packaging industry is also very underdeveloped, especially The recycling industry for packaging waste is still lagging behind.
Different companies in different regions have unbalanced development. First of all, the time for different companies to implement green packaging is not synchronized. 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. The response to green packaging by companies based primarily on the domestic market is relatively slow. In recent years, they have only begun to engage in green packaging. Secondly, the development of the regions is uneven, and the green packaging in the economically developed regions has developed rapidly. In the central and western regions where the economy is relatively backward, the green packaging has not received sufficient attention and publicity, and the development is slow.
