Eco-Friendly Food Packaging has been a New Trend

China's packaging industry shows a great deal of growth potentiality

Since the beginning of the 21st century, the overall level of China's packaging industry shows a great deal of growth potentiality compared with some developed countries. With China's rapid economic development, China packaging industry has entered a healthy, stable and fast growth stage, which maintained the high growth rate of 7% during 2006-2010, with a total output of 450 billion RMB. The sustained rapid and healthy development of Chinese food, beverage, pharmaceutical, tobacco, electronics and other industries also provide a broad market for the packing bags industries at home and abroad.

Khaki-colored bags are the mostly used packaging in the 1970s

The khaki-colored bags are the mostly used packaging in the 1970s, which were used to package candy, cookies, pastries and other snacks. It is said that only if you bought a pound or more snacks, you were able to enjoy the packaging practices of the salesperson performance at the time, and products less than a pound were packed by triangle paper bags which were pasted well in advance.

The plastic packaging accounts a large market share but causes serious pollution

Plastic bags started to be used about in the early 1980s, which has gradually developed into the mainstream material of today's food packaging container. Now, a lot of food packaging is made of plastic in supermarkets and shopping malls. The plastic food packaging accounts a large market share, which also causes serious pollution. Some of the poor quality food packaging flow into the market, toxic and hazardous materials added in the packaging for the finished products, which have become the "invisible killer" in the daily lives of people.

Environmentally friendly plastic bag alternatives are needed

"Plastic limit order" was formally implemented on June 1, 2008. A plastic bag is usually 2-3 cents in supermarkets and shopping malls, which might be able to hold back litter phenomenon, but people have been relied on plastic bags too long. The insiders said that calling on people to less use plastic shopping bags, it is a priority to speed up to research and develop lightweight, safe and environmentally friendly plastic bag alternatives.

The tin box packaging is still in use

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, tin packaging quietly stepped into the lives of people, among which the moon cake tin is most representative. Since the 1990s, although the packaging is iron, the appearance has been revised into a variety of shapes and sprayed with brightly colored paint, making consumers to ignore the food taste in the packaging, just want to hurry up to take the iron box home and use it as a beautiful storage box. It was the practicality that tempted the consumers. So far, many businesses still continue to use the tin box packaging.

   The packaging with recycled materials as raw materials is welcome

When people's awareness of environmental protection is growing, the requirement for food packaging bags is higher and higher. The packaging with recycled materials as raw materials is welcome by more and more people. The traditional packaging containers, such as baskets, paper, and string bag or even of straw rope in the early years not only avoid the luxury packaging and reduce costs, but also are environmentally friendly. Today, this low-carbon packaging is cycled again.
