The global economy and industrial system are developing the concept of "zero degree packaging", "simplified packaging" and "green packaging" with packaging revolution as the forerunner, and put into practice. Green commodities and green packaging have become a hot spot in the packaging industry.

Green packaging is a high-tech form of packaging, from raw materials to packaging design, manufacturing and recycling of products, each link should be energy-saving, efficient and harmless. Ecological packaging materials have attracted worldwide attention, and their research should be considered from the whole process of development, design, production, use and waste.

With the rapid development of China's economy and the improvement of people's quality of life, the demand for microwave food, snack food and frozen food will be increasing, which will directly drive the demand for food packaging. China's food and packaging machinery industry will maintain a positive growth for a long time to come.

With the increasing demand for environmental protection of packaging in the international market, paper packaging materials have been developed to meet the requirements of rapid commodity inspection and customs clearance in order to achieve rapid logistics and cost saving. By product classification, the output of China's paper packaging products will reach 36 million tons by 2015.

When excessive packaging became a rat in the street, when everyone shouted, the paper packaging once again came into sight. The most primitive packaging, paper packaging has its green environmental advantages. Metals, woodwork and other packaging are seldom used again, and the cost of recovery is not as good as that of newspapers.

Green packaging as one of the development trends of packaging, paper packaging and paper packaging containers as a member of green packaging, how will it develop?

The development of paper packaging printing technology will have the following new characteristics: single-layer materials to multi-layer materials; offset printing, gravure, flexography, screen printing and other printing methods coexist and flexography will grow fastest; single sheet paper to web paper, single machine to online production; a variety of related new technologies integrated applications (such as computer settings) The whole production system is constantly optimized, including digital technology, laser processing technology and new materials.

The development trend of paper packaging containers is: one-time molded paper containers will gradually replace the existing molded combined paper containers; deep coating technology will gradually replace the past wax coating; composite technology has become an important technology in the development of paper containers; CAD and CAM systems will greatly shorten the design and manufacturing cycle of paper packaging containers.

In addition, paper products packaging focuses on the development of low gram weight, high strength, lightweight high-grade paper packaging, to achieve standardization, serialization, multi-variety, multi-substrate, multi-purpose goals.

It is understood that from 2011 to 2015, the total output value of China's packaging industry is expected to exceed 600 billion yuan, with an average annual growth rate of about 16%. By product classification, the output of China's paper packaging products will reach 36 million tons by 2015, 94.66 million tons of plastic packaging products, 4.91 million tons of metal packaging products, 15.5 million tons of glass packaging products and 1.2 million sets of packaging machinery.

It is expected that recycling economy will become the main mode of packaging industry development in the future, recycling and utilization of waste packaging resources will be industrialized, green packaging materials will be vigorously developed and developed, and basic packaging industry will be accelerated.
