Development characteristics of the hottest flexibl

Development characteristics of flexible packaging market at home and abroad

at present, in China, taking Jiangsu, Wuxi and Changzhou as examples, Wuxi and Changzhou have approved more than 120 wholly foreign-owned and joint venture packaging and printing enterprises, with a registered capital of more than 600million yuan. This development momentum requires us to pay attention to the development of the packaging and printing industry. Among the four pillars of the modern packaging industry, paper, plastic, glass and metal, paper products and plastic flexible packaging have the fastest growth

1. Vigorously develop paper-based packaging and printing products

focus on the development of high-end cartons and folding cartons with low gram weight, high strength and light weight, and develop in the direction of gift and color. First of all, paper products packaging based on folding cartons will have greater development space. Second, multilayer paperboard composites are more and more widely used. As users have higher and higher requirements for the quality and performance of paper products, the consumption of multilayer materials has a further increasing trend. For example, wine boxes and food boxes are mostly made of 2-3 layers of composite cardboard materials, and multi-layer materials (4-7 layers) based on paper will be more and more widely used in the field of paper packaging (such as beverage cartons) with high barrier requirements

2. Vigorously develop paper plastic packaging

paper and plastic are the two most widely used materials in the packaging and printing industry in terms of mechanical property experiments of metal, non-metal, composite materials and products, and will coexist for a long time. Plastic flexible packaging plays an increasingly important role in many fields, such as food, medicine (there are more than 6000 pharmaceutical enterprises in China, with annual sales of 120billion yuan), health products, dairy products, cosmetics, washing supplies and so on. At present, the development of plastic packaging products in the world presents the following characteristics: new polyester packaging has a better future; New degradable plastics are concerned; Attention has been paid to zero pollution of foamed plastics

the development of domestic plastic packaging focuses on the following aspects: high barrier packaging materials that improve protection performance and prolong shelf life, such as the development and application of high barrier coextrusion composite film; Development and application of sterile packaging materials, antibacterial packaging films and radiation resistant packaging films: suitable for electromagnetic cookers and microwave oven heating packaging materials; Controlled atmosphere packaging of packaging materials suitable for the storage of agricultural products such as grain; Composite film for electromagnetic shielding; Web paper and sheet fed gravure printing products will have great development according to market needs

at present, there are a variety of universal experimental machines on the market. 3. Pollution-free green packaging has been paid more and more attention by the society.

at present, China's packaging and printing enterprises are developing in a healthy and orderly direction

about 20% - 30% of consumer goods in today's U.S. market are in the form of flexible packaging. The factors that promote the continuous expansion of flexible packaging market share are the progressiveness of the blocking performance of sheet structure and the economic and high-quality flexo printing effect. Among them, flexible packaging has a huge market share in trademark printing, and the packaging of metal and glass containers in this market is constantly giving way to flexible packaging materials such as pet and other hard plastics. In the coming years, standing small bag packaging will be the most dynamic market in the flexible packaging industry

the printing industry in the United States has taken flexographic printing as the first choice for flexible packaging. The reason for choosing experimental principle: flexographic printing is because the overall cost is less than intaglio printing in small and medium-sized printing volume. The main factors driving the development of flexible packaging are as follows: aluminum plastic composite film packaging of food, cosmetics and drugs has become a trend; The growth of disposable drug packaging; Consumers' demand for household convenience food is increasing. In order to attract potential consumers to buy the same kind of products, American businesses will adopt different packaging forms. For example, tuna and dried cereals have aluminum, folding cartons, flexographic packaging and other forms, so the printing volume is relatively small, making flexographic more acceptable than intaglio
