With the improvement of production process, technical level and the popularization of green environmental protection concept, paper printed packaging has been able to partially replace plastic packaging, metal packaging, glass packaging and other packaging forms due to its advantages such as wide source of production raw materials, low cost, easy logistics and transportation, easy storage and recyclability of packaging materials, and its application scope is becoming wider and wider.
Proportion of operating income
While meeting the needs of the masses, printing and packaging products show the trend of quality, personalization and customization. Green printing and digital printing are developing rapidly. In 2020, the national printing and copying industry realized an operating income of 1199.102 billion yuan and a total profit of 55.502 billion yuan. Among them, the operating income of packaging and decoration printing was 950.331 billion yuan, accounting for 79.25% of the total printing and copying business income.
Development prospect
1. National policies support industry development
The support of national policies will bring long-term encouragement and support to the paper product printing and packaging industry. The state has issued relevant policies to encourage and support the development of the paper product printing and packaging industry. In addition, the state has revised laws and regulations such as the Cleaner Production Promotion Law of the people's Republic of China, the environmental protection law of the people's Republic of China, and the measures for the use and recycling of disposable plastic products in the commercial field (Trial Implementation), further clarifying the mandatory requirements for the printing and packaging of paper products in environmental protection, which is conducive to the further growth of the market demand of the industry.
2. Residents' income growth drives the development of packaging industry
With the continuous development of China's economy, the per capita income of residents continues to grow, and the demand for consumption continues to increase. All kinds of consumer goods are inseparable from packaging, and paper packaging accounts for the largest proportion of all packaging. Therefore, the growth of social consumer goods will continue to drive the development of the paper printing and packaging industry.
3. The demand for printing and packaging of paper products has increased due to the increased requirements for environmental protection
In recent years, the national development and Reform Commission and other departments have successively issued documents such as the opinions on Further Strengthening the treatment of plastic pollution, the opinions on Further Strengthening the treatment of plastic pollution, and the notice on accelerating the green transformation of express packaging. The environmental protection requirements have been increased layer by layer. While China's economy is developing rapidly, it is paying more and more attention to green development and sustainable development. In this context, every link of paper packaging products, from raw materials to packaging design, manufacturing to product recycling, can maximize resource saving, efficiency and harmlessness, and the market prospect of paper packaging products is broad.
