Reasons Why Foam Dinnerware Was Forbidden

Introduction

According to sources of raw materials, production processes, degradation method and recovery levels, disposable dinnerware could be divided into the following three categories: the 1, biodegradable dinnerware type: such as paper products (including pulp molding, paperboard coating type), edible powder molding type, vegetable fiber molding type, etc.; 2 optical / biodegradable material type: optical / biodegradable plastics (non-foamed) type, such as light biodegradable PP type; 3, materials easy to recycle: such as polypropylene based (PP), high-impact polystyrene class (HIPS), biaxially oriented polystyrene (BOPS), natural inorganic mineral-filled polypropylene composite products.

Reasons Why Foam Dinnerware Was Forbidden

Why did Chinese government forbid foam plastic dinnerware? The Chinese government issued regulations about prohibition of the manufacture, sale and use of disposable foam plastic dinnerware, starting from January 1, 2001 for the following reasons: 1, foam plastic dinnerware is difficult to recycle and reuse after being used and abandoned; 2, foam plastic dinnerware is not easy to decay and degrade in the environment; 3, the foaming agents used in the production of some foam plastic dinnerware enterprises are butane (i.e. lighter gas), which is inflammable and unsafe; 4, harmful substances of the foam plastic dinnerware are easily soluble out at high temperatures (> 65 ° C), which is unsafe during using. Especially when being used in the microwave, it is easily melted; 5, this product is in large size, inconvenient for transportation as well as warehousing; 6, foam plastic is difficult to decompose, but pollutes the environment and is harmful to human body; 7, there are alternative products coming up (corn starch tableware).



Harm of Using Foam Plastic Dinnerware

What harm does using fake environmentally friendly lunch boxes have? Fake environmentally friendly lunch boxes contains a large number of inorganic mineral filler products such as talcum powder or calcium carbonate (there are a few dinnerware made from waste plastics or waste paper, with more danger). The purity of acetic acid residue exceeds several times than that of national standards. Environmental protection and food hygiene of those lunch boxes do not reach the standards, which are easy to cause diseases such as gallstones, and significant harm to body health.

Along with the development of biodegradable dinnerware, people's environmental awareness becomes more and more strong, and more and more disposable tableware wholesale suppliers have arisen.

Disposable Tableware Sampling Pass Rate was Low

Safety and Importance of Biodegradable Tableware

With the implementation of the "Food Safety Law" and other relevant food safety regulations and policies, the food packaging industry, product quality has been greatly improved. However, are there any disposable tableware products which have not been issued still in production and sales? And certified products are really safe and secure? There is no quality problem? Recently, the International Food Packaging Association put forward the scientific countermeasures and suggestions to solve the problems of disposable plastic tableware, disposable biodegradable tableware, as well as related products in contact with food, such as instant noodle bowls, fresh tray, tea cups, tofu box survey detected released, while the abuse of raw and auxiliary materials and additives as well as indiscriminate labeling product information.



Various Biodegradable Dinnerware is Unqualified

It is understood that, in June 2012, the International Food Packaging Association in Beijing Hyflux environmental technology consulting center formed an investigation team on the wholesale market in Beijing, Guangdong, vendors, supermarket sales and use disposable biodegradable dinnerware, plastic bowls, fresh tray, tofu boxes, plastic cups, etc. to investigate, and randomly purchased 31 kinds of products, sent to a qualified testing agency for testing. The result shows that qualified for 20 species, 11 kinds of substandard, a pass rate of 64.5%. Supermarket submission products involving 15 species, while only 8 are qualified, 7 failed. Carrefour supermarkets and Wal-Mart supermarket sales of white plastic tray detection failed. The survey found that only 70% of the sellers to understand the state of the implementation of the requirements of the market access of disposable plastic tableware, boycott the sale of illegal production license, and sales of the product can do to obtain the production license of the production enterprises, inspection report, and business license.

Strengthen Management to Biodegradable Dinnerware is Important

It is reported that China has a clear selection of raw and auxiliary materials for food containers, packaging materials and other requirements, and the majority of manufacturing enterprises are in accordance with national regulations and standards requirements, the use of new food-grade raw material production, talc and other additives used also in line with the food-grade requirements. The survey found that individual enterprises illegal use of industrial grade talc, purchased scrap production of disposable polystyrene tableware, but for qualified post-test data. Therefore, for the supervision of the production enterprises, the sources of raw materials, procurement, production, processing, storage and multi-link should be monitored in order to prevent such violations.

Development Analysis of Green Biodegradable Tableware

Green Biodegradable Tableware Industrial Restructuring

After the second half of last year, most of the green tableware manufacturers entered the adjustment period for an action, this in itself is an inevitable process in the development of green tableware industry, also one important reason of the last year's entire alternative work to be more relaxed. However, due to the lack of good guidance and advocacy, this is ignorant or poorly understood by many outsiders, so many who care about the development of green biodegradable dinnerware but not too familiar with the situation are worried, because this part of the work mismatches, on the one hand, to make consumers more confused, on the other hand also affects the confidence of investors in the investment. This adjustment is actually integrated resource accumulation of forces, is a necessary preparations poised to re-compete for market.

Survival Difficulty of Paper Tableware Companies

In this adjustment of market-oriented strategic, the core to the variety, quality and production, paper tableware manufacturers withstand the most aggressive impact from it. According to incomplete statistics, there are about more than 2/3 of the paper tableware manufacturing enterprises have ceased, all paper tableware manufacturers had no three classes a day full production records, paper tableware production and market share have considerable degree of decline, some enterprises the original can barely started due to lack of liquidity, the market is shrinking, or other reasons, have discontinued close, those who are able to maintain normal production of paper tableware manufacturers in the country is probably not more than 20 in the second half of last year. This phenomenon has caused great anxiety of the paper tableware manufacturing enterprises.



Crack Down on Poor-quality Disposable Tableware

According to reports from the two major producers of instant noodles, environmental tableware that they replaced this year, among which, the cardboard packing group accounted for a large proportion. There is an unavoidable problem in tableware eliminated and alternative, it is banned foam type plastic cutlery, and other equally non-degradable foam plastic tableware has openly its simple mode of production and low cost, occupies large-scale market share, we believe that similar to two non-degradable plastic tableware, environmental hazards are essentially the same, and some even face-lift of foam tableware, but not in the "blacklist" column, so was able to evade the prohibition eliminated bad luck, this will not only affect the balance of the entire cutlery market, but also largely weakened the enforcement of the national policy.

Eco Friendly Tableware Dominates the Market

Pater Tableware Needs to Cross the "5 Cents Threshold"

The development of environmental protection tableware production industry also faces many problems, but the support of relevant policies, worth looking forward to the future market prospects. For the high cost of environmental protection tableware, was the image of the foam plastic tableware cheaper than environmental tableware, 0.5 RMB called "environmental tableware encounter threshold of 5 cents. Paper tableware wants to reduce cost, and there is a certain degree of difficulty. Foam tableware uses fewer raw materials, and environmental protection tableware uses more "material." For example, the market price of one ton of foam plastic dinnerware is 8,000 RMB, while the price of 1 ton of raw materials of biodegradable dinnerware is 7,000 RMB, but a foam tableware raw material weight is 5 grams, and the biodegradable tableware is 15 grams. Plastic foam tableware production technology has matured, the costs can be controlled. Production of environmentally friendly tableware is still under development, all sectors of production and efficiency is not high, naturally lead to the costs do not fall down.

Methods to Reduce Cost of Disposable Tableware

To further reduce the cost of production of disposable tableware, we can have multifaceted explorations. We can rely on a new recipe, to find a lower cost of raw materials to improve processing; the new design of the mold; expand the production scale. But no matter in what way, and only when the market price of the environmental protection tableware is equal to twice the price of raw materials enterprises to make a buck. This is a clear need for policy support. Shenling eco friendly paper tableware works out so one way: the research and development of new formulations and looking for a lower cost of raw material, and improve the production process, relying on the progress of production technology, continuously improve product quality while reducing production costs, aiming to build China's largest disposable environmentally friendly tableware enterprise and enter into the world market.

QS System Raises Threshold for Paper Tableware

At present, the situation is in the right direction. The QS audit work has been carried out for a year, food plastic packaging, containers, tools and other products production license review of the rules was released in July 2006 in accordance with the State General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine requirements of at least 1/3 of the small and medium-sized companies will certainly be eliminated. Our food with plastic products QS audit from September 2006 by the State General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine was officially launched. And in accordance with the requirements of the rules, the production of food, plastic products business should have good ventilation, disinfection , dust and other facilities.
