The development trend analysis of plastic hollow container industry

Medical bottle experienced rapid development looking forward to new field expansion

With the reform of medical system and kinds of drugs increased, the packing of the drugs. is from the original paper bags, plastic bags, glass bottles to polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester bottles, aluminum strip packing and packaging, plastic packaging has made significant progress in the pharmaceutical packaging market, at present, our country has already formed the hebei cangzhou, taizhou yuhuan, guangdong foshan three medicine production base, and has experienced rapid development.

However, with the development of the plastic medicine bottle industry, the concentration of the plastic medicine bottle market in China is far from enough, and the competition is becoming more and more fierce. The whole plastic medicine bottle market is in a chaotic situation of chaos, and there are not a few small non-standard medical bottle manufacturers. So. In this prospect, to achieve good development, plastic pharmaceutical bottle enterprises must improve from the following aspects:

Strengthen scientific and technological investment and technological innovation, actively explore new areas of the medical bottle market; (2) Domestic hollow equipment manufacturers should take this opportunity to grasp the development trend of plastic medicine bottles, develop new high-efficiency and high-performance medicine bottle forming equipment, and strive to shorten the gap with international advanced technology and equipment.

Zhuochuang predicts that in the next few years, the global pharmaceutical packaging market will become the second largest economic growth point in the plastic bottle packaging industry, and China will become the fastest growing pharmaceutical plastic bottle packaging producer. By 2050, China will be the world's largest market for packaging plastic bottles for medicines.

PC drinking water package bottle (bucket) popularity, but the industry to be standardized

From 2008 to 2012, domestic packaged drinking water output showed a rapid growth trend, from 23.5 million tons in 2008 to 55.63 million tons in 2012, with an average annual growth rate of up to 24%. In 2010, domestic packaged drinking water production grew the fastest, with A year-on-year growth of up to 40%. Then, in 2011, the bpa bottle incident caused the consumption of pc-based drinking buckets to be restricted, and recycled drinking buckets must be made of polycarbonate PC, resulting in A significant decrease in the growth rate of drinking water market. With the popularity of Pc drinking bucket, the growth rate of domestic packaged drinking water consumption began to pick up. In 2012, the output of domestic packaged drinking water was 55.63 million tons, with a year-on-year growth of 16%, and the growth rate picked up compared with 2011.

According to zhuochuang's incomplete investigation, there are over 500 bucket brands in China, and about 20 new production lines were put on in the first half of 2013. China's PC bucket industry leading enterprises stand out, the top three enterprises are China Foshan Kexin Plastic Group, Jinan Plastic research plastic products, Zhuhai Hualin bottle, the total capacity of the three enterprises accounted for about 70 percent of the total capacity of domestic PC bucket. However, from the trend, China's PC bucket market due to the relatively low technical threshold, the number of people in the market rapid expansion, the industry profit squeeze is obvious.

In addition, the current industry "selling water does not make money, sell barrels to make money" phenomenon, PC imported raw materials at a high price and manufacturers of speculative psychology to lead to drinking water barrels of different materials, the industry is very irregular. Therefore, it has become a pressing matter of the moment to perfect the relevant standards of bucket and revise the market access system.

Cosmetics, washing products bottle widely used in the trinity of development is the direction

With the improvement of people's consumption level and consumption ability, the production and sales of cosmetics and washing products have developed well. Plastic because of its design and color variety is various, light and convenient, the advantage such as environmental protection becomes the pet that wash protect package, nearly two years application also is more and more extensive. In general, in the past two years, the cosmetics and washing products plastic packaging bottle industry has highlighted the following three characteristics :(1) enterprises pay more attention to product appearance design in order to better improve product competitiveness; (2) More diversified specifications to better meet the needs of people at different levels; (3) Material selection is more diversified. Ordinary cosmetic bottles and washing products bottles are mostly made of HDPE, mainly because HDPE has better transparency and corrosion resistance.

With the improvement of consumers' consumption level, transparent polypropylene CPP and transparent polyester PET have also been further added to the list of cleaning and protecting plastic bottles. In addition, in recent years, the application of in-mold labeling technology has also improved the level of packaging cosmetics, washing products. The development of green packaging materials, nanomaterials modification and antibacterial materials is also being used in the packaging of cosmetics and washing products.

However, the current cosmetics bottles, cleaning and care products bottle industry problems are also relatively prominent, such as the proliferation of small enterprises, leading enterprises rare, and disorderly competition. There are many kinds of cosmetics and lack of standardization in the industry. Many cosmetics bottles and care bottles have excessive packaging and defective products.

From the perspective of development trend, due to the prominent advantages of plastic bottles, the development of plastic bottles of various functions used in cosmetics, washing products packaging is also very promising. Pay attention to the development and use of new materials and new technologies to meet the needs of different grades of product packaging and consumers. For example, pay attention to the product structure design, humanized design, keep up with the development needs of The Times; The development of green environmental protection cleaning packaging bottles and so on. In a word, the future development direction of plastic cleaning and protecting packaging bottle industry is the trinity of protection, function and decoration.

Compared with small and medium-sized plastic packaging containers, large plastic packaging containers have the characteristics of easy transportation, easy handling, less storage and transportation costs, easy filling and discharging, less residual liquid, etc. In the guidance of the 12th Five-Year Plan, it is proposed that priority should be given to the development of large-capacity PE and IBC barrels and the development and promotion of technological content such as automobile fuel tank. Large hollow container will become one of the important development directions of hollow packing container.

Tons of packaging plastic container will gradually become the mainstream of liquid packaging products

IBC(Intermediate Bulk Container), commonly known as tons of packaging plastic Container, IS a new generation of international popular industrial packaging containers, but also the development trend of today's packaging industry, IBC barrels used in plastic and steel is only 60% of the same volume of plastic barrels, transport loading efficiency than ordinary plastic barrels increased by more than 15%. At present, some hollow enterprises in China have successively carried out technological innovation in the framework design, tray design and multi-layer container function of barrels, and developed their own new generation OF IBC barrels, which filled the domestic gap and quickly opened up the domestic and foreign markets. To sum up, the container is easy to use, economical and durable. With the development of internationalization, it will gradually become the mainstream product of liquid packaging.

Automobile fuel tank achieved rapid development prospects continue to look good

The development of automobile plastic fuel tank in China started from Jiangsu Yangzhou Plastic No.2 Factory (the predecessor of Yap Automobile Parts Co., LTD.). According to incomplete statistics, the market share of the market for the plastic fuel tank in China's passenger car market has reached around 70%, China's production of cars, Volkswagen santana, jetta, audi A6, and audi A4, passat B5 dongfeng Citroen senna, Picasso, the Elysee, chery QQ, etc. Use the plastic fuel tank. Automotive material technology development is the main direction of lightweight and environmental protection, the dead weight of a car reduced by 10%, fuel consumption can be reduced by 6-8%. Fuel tank plastic is the trend of modern automobile fuel tank manufacturing.

Although the plastic hollow container industry is generally promising in recent years, there are still many problems to be solved that hinder the development of the industry. For example :(1) small scale, too dispersed, low comprehensive competitiveness; (2) Investment in hollow container equipment is quite blind, and high-end equipment is mostly imported with low localization rate; (3) Weak independent innovation ability, unreasonable product structure, and excess production capacity of low-end products.

Zhuo Chuang believes that the development of plastic hollow container industry in the later period should realize the following changes: 1. Accelerate the cultivation of leading enterprises to realize the large-scale development of the industry; 2. 2. Strengthen technical innovation of equipment and improve the share of domestic machinery and equipment. 3. Accelerate technological innovation, develop new process equipment, and realize energy saving and consumption reduction technology in the production of hollow container products. The realization of lightweight and thin-walled packaging containers is conducive to the development of the packaging container industry towards sanitation, environmental protection and reuse. Use product differentiation to develop functional packaging products.
