 The global plastic packing industry is developing forwards to some features. The new polyester packing is sound and promising. The biodegradable plastics are coming more and more focused. The foamed plastic is being developed to be non-pollution. The entire industry is on its way to be environment friendly.

Besides, the plastic packing industry is working hard on developing. There are some factors of its changes.

1.       Membranes are created into thin, multi-functional and highly separated. Soft plastic packing materials are popular within this country in recent years. Highly separated and multi-functional preservative film and sterile packing film are growing fast. With the development of printing, soft plastic packing is walking further and expanding wider into an era of Color Revolution.

2.       The construction of the plastic packing is changing. It is important to satisfy the need of packing as well as reducing the wastes as environmental protection has become a main theme in the world. Co-extruded packaging film is the one. It is cost-saving, adapting and easy to use. Most essentially, it is an environment friendly packing product. Because of its advantages, it has grown fast and it was about 40% of soft plastic packing film worldwide. As its product construction is changed, it is okay for snack manufacturers to use it.

3.       The market of vegetable preservative film is hopeful. China is a big country of vegetable and fruits. However, bad packing would lead to a loss of the fruit because of decomposition. Polythene film and polypropylene film would be good enough for packing fresh vegetable and fruits.

4.       Plastic bottle market is good. Beverage industry is of great business opportunity. Beverage manufacturers are producing various kinds of drink for consumers. The producing amount is raising 20% per year. The market of PET bottle is promising. With development of plastic packing materials, PS, ABS and PE have become strong rivals for PET.

5.       Recently, there is a trend to pack beer with PET bottle. Its permeability resistance is efficient as glass. In the meanwhile, the PET can be sterilized in high temperature, which has expanded its market. Also, it can be used for packing tea drink.  

6.       Bottle water was mainly packed with PVC and PET. But, in the past few years, PC water bottle is chasing. It is a opportunity for investing PC packing.

In conclusion, to pack environment friendly is the basic requirement no matter of what kind of plastic would be opted. Cutting of the waste and solving the problem of recycling are both essential. Non-pollution packing material would be welcomed globally.
