Refuse stretch film and polyolefin shrink film packing

Refuse stretch film and polyolefin shrink film packing

Currently, the food industry refuses to stretch film and polyolefin shrink film packaging, and rejects the phenomenon of excessive waste. There are also growing calls for the use of renewable materials or sustainable forest products for production. Besides professionals, there are also increasing calls for environmental protection and low-carbon packaging from the public. In addition to the improvement of people's cognitive level, this phenomenon is also related to the influence caused by "excessive packaging".

stretch film and polyolefin shrink film packaging has become a public nuisance

Excessive packaging of commodities has become a major public hazard in today's society. It not only brings economic loss to the society, but also brings some social problems.

Over stretch film and polyolefin shrink film packaging not only causes huge amounts of household waste, but also encourages commercial fraud and harms consumers.

Data show that some luxury goods packaging costs have been accounted for 70% of the total price of the products, is a presumptuous guest usurps the host's role, the more "dirty" businessman the chance to sell other goods, consumers purchased for costly efforts by ordinary even inferior goods.

In addition, excessive stretch film and polyolefin shrink film packaging also induce social extravagance, conceal corrupt behaviors and aggravate social discord. Sky-high mooncakes, sky-high foreign wine, sky-high health care products, etc., induce the wind of social luxury; Over-packaged holiday gifts have been used by some as a "figleaf", with expensive securities, gifts and even money, as a way of offering bribes.

Overstretch film and polyolefin shrink film packaging not only affects our daily lives, but also wastes our limited energy. It is an inevitable trend to reject excessive packaging and advocate environmental protection and low-carbon packaging. Food packaging is an essential part of food circulation market, before the procedure, refer to related information, the author found that there are many influence factors in food packaging can low carbon, but mainly packaging materials and packaging design of the two aspects of factors.

Stretch film and polyolefin shrink film packaging materials have developed towards low carbon

1. Reusable and recycled packaging materials

Re-use the packaging, such as beer, beverage, soy sauce, vinegar, etc. In Sweden and other countries, PET PET PET bottles and PC bottles are reused more than 20 times. Wellman of the Netherlands and Johnson of the United States recycle 100% of PET containers.

The reuse of packaging materials and regeneration, only extended the plastic polymer materials as the service life of the packaging materials, such as when after reaching its service life, still face handling of waste and environmental pollution problems.

2. Edible stretch film and polyolefin shrink film packaging materials

For decades, the familiar sticky rice paper used in candy wrappers and the corn baking cups that pack ice cream are typical edible stretch film and polyolefin shrink film wrappers.

Currently, the commonly used edible preservative film has developed into a multi-functional edible film made of a variety of biological macromolecules (proteins and polysaccharides) and lipids. This kind of composite membrane mainly through different intermolecular interaction, the formation of a stable emulsion, and then make the solvent evaporation and drying to form porous, transparent or translucent three-dimensional network structure of the film, the network structure of the porous thin film has obvious waterproof and the certain choice of permeability, thus in the food industry, especially in the aspect of fresh-keeping, has broad application prospects.

3. Degradable stretch film and polyolefin shrink film materials

Degradable stretch film and polyolefin shrink film materials refer to a kind of plastic whose chemical structure changes in a specific environment which causes performance loss at a certain time.

Biodegradable stretch film and polyolefin shrink film packaging material has the functions and features of the traditional plastic, and can be done in life, the role of ultraviolet light through the sun or the microbial action of soil and water, in a natural environment degradation and reduction, finally back into the ecological environment in the form of non-toxic, return to nature.

It is reported that a new environment-friendly food stretch film and polyolefin shrink film packaging material is expected to be available in the United States in the near future. This newly developed food packaging film can prevent the infiltration of oxygen and thus achieve the effect of fresh preservation. Because the ingredients of this new material are mainly from vegetables and fruits that are not suitable for human consumption, it is a kind of material that can be decomposed naturally and meet the environmental requirements. It is estimated that this new material will probably replace the traditional polyethylene plastic film and become the main material in the food packaging industry in the future.

Stretch film and polyolefin shrink film packaging design is also low carbon

In the field of packaging, product packaging appearance is also important, therefore, the designers in the design of the packing, in addition to the pursuit of innovation, also should try to convey the product features and brand personality.

Considering the environmental requirements of consumers, the overall weight of products and the packaging material of stretch film are also two important factors. And targeted design strategy can integrate quality into products, so as to improve the price point and profit space of enterprises and reduce the waste of materials. For example, the common cube wine box in the American market is a good example. It can make the product stand out from many competitors with its unique shape.

Carton producer Chesapeake (Chesapeake) of the company's marketing director think bobby houghton, a good design and reasonable structure can not only reduce packaging waste, but also in some cases to reduce use of plastic.

Environmental protection of the stretch film packaging material, combined with targeted design, will reduce the waste of materials, the corresponding also reduces the production cost of enterprise, increase the profit, but low carbon is much more than this, better is to reduce carbon emissions, protect our survival environment, create a good living environment.

Whether it's the goebbon-hagen conference or the "low carbon" debate at the two sessions, there are signs that the quest for a low-carbon path has become a trend of social development and consensus. The sustainable development of any country is inseparable from the effective and rational use of resources, in recent decades in our country economy high speed development, the achievement has attracted worldwide attention, but there is no denying the fact that our economic development model is established on the basis of high energy consumption and high pollution. In the field of food industry, environmental protection, low carbon voice rising, "excessive pallet stretch film packaging", "packaging" blindly high carbon packing have also improved, but in the face of the existing achievement we cannot be lax, comb train of thought, to explore a better form of low-carbon packaging, for the development of our low carbon stretch film packaging.
