The output of special packaging equipment is increasing year by year Packaging machinery refers to the machinery that can complete all or part of the packaging process of products and commodities, mainly completing weighing, filling, wrapping, sealing and other processes, as well as the related before and after processes, such as cleaning, stacking and disassembly, etc. In addition, can also complete the measurement or seal on the package and other processes. Packaging products with mechanical equipment can improve production efficiency, reduce labor force, directly improve the economic benefits of enterprise production, suitable for mass production and manufacturing, and can meet the standard of clean environment.
In the process of continuous and large-scale industrial production, packaging is the last step. Packaging can play the role of protecting, beautifying, publicizing and selling products, improve the competitiveness of goods, and realize packaging automation can effectively improve production capacity, ensure product quality, and help reduce production costs. Packaging automation is the use of automation devices to control and manage the packaging process, so that it is in accordance with the predetermined procedures automatically.
1. New growth point of the industry to pull the overall growth of packaging machinery industry
Food, beverage and other fast moving consumer goods, electronics, medicine and other areas with high degree of mobility and intelligence, digital transformation and intelligent manufacturing as the main driving force, with the transformation and upgrading of traditional production lines as the main form, the need for intelligent equipment and intelligent production lines is increasing. In recent years, traditional food, automatic brewing, consumer electronics, solid medicine and other fields are realizing rapid industrial upgrading, which further drives the overall growth of China's packaging machinery industry.
2. The enterprise scale is small
There are many small and medium-sized enterprises in China's packaging machinery industry, which are small in scale, weak in independent research and development ability, few enterprises with high starting point, many low-level repeated construction, weak in comprehensive competitiveness, and no well-known brands in the world. Every year, nearly 15% of the enterprises in the industry change production or close down, but another 15% of the enterprises are added to the industry. In 2020, due to the impact of the epidemic, many enterprises switched to manufacturing mask machines or related industries.
3. The level of intelligentization of packaging machinery has been significantly improved
Since China issued "Made in China 2025" in 2015, the process of Intelligent manufacturing in China has started to accelerate. In the wave of intelligence, mechanical intelligence has become an important focus of development in the industrial field, and this also makes the packaging machinery is bound to intelligent transformation. In recent years, under the support of the national industrial policy, some enterprises through independent innovation, the introduction and absorption of foreign advanced technology, the technical level has been greatly improved, the proportion of automation in the field of packaging machinery in China has exceeded 50%, which has laid a good foundation for the development of intelligent.

(Unit: 10,000 units, %)
In 2020, the output of special packaging equipment in China reached 263,400 units, with a year-on-year growth of 25.2%. By April 2021, the output of special packaging equipment in China was 228,200 units, up 244.6% from the same period in 2020.
The export amount increased year by year
Before the 1980s, China's packaging machinery mainly imported from Germany, France, Italy, Japan and other world machinery and equipment manufacturing powers. After more than 20 years of development, China's packaging machinery has become one of the ten industries in the machinery industry, for the rapid development of China's packaging industry to provide a strong guarantee, some packaging machinery to fill the domestic gap, has been able to basically meet the needs of the domestic market, some products are exported.
According to statistics from the General Administration of Customs of China, in 2018-2019, China imported about 140,000 packaging machinery and exported about 9 million packaging machinery. In 2020, China imported 145,800 packaging machinery and exported 14.27 million packaging machinery. It can be seen that with the continuous improvement of the overall strength of China's packaging machinery industry, the export quantity of China's packaging machinery products is increasing.

Import and Export Value of China's Packaging Machinery from 2017 to 2021 (Unit: USD 100 million)
From the import and export amount, the import amount of Packaging machinery fluctuates and the export amount increases year by year. In 2020, the total import volume of packaging machinery in China reached us $1.57 billion, and the export volume reached US $2.962 billion.
3. The market size of packaging machinery is about 34.6 billion yuan
According to the China Machinery Industry Yearbook 2019 released in January 2020, by the end of 2018, there were 319 enterprises above designated size in China's packaging equipment manufacturing industry, and their main business revenue reached 31.046 billion yuan, with a year-on-year growth of 6.14%. Combined with the manufacturing output and import and export of special packaging equipment in China, it is estimated that the market size of special packaging equipment manufacturing industry in China is about 34.6 billion yuan.

As a supporting industry in many fields of national economy, packaging industry benefits from the prosperity of other industries, and its technological progress and supporting services also react on other industries. With the continuous improvement of social material civilization and spiritual civilization, the competition of packaging machinery industry at home and abroad is becoming increasingly fierce, and China's packaging machinery industry is facing new challenges. Multi-purpose, high quality, high efficiency and intelligence will become the development direction of packaging machinery products in the future:
Multi-purpose, high quality
Packaging is a necessary condition for commodities to enter the circulation field. It is the key to the development of the industry to produce packaging machinery with higher quality by following the consumption demand and concept of packaging industry and consumers. Packaging machine has been seeking high quality, individuation and flexibility under the condition of meeting functional requirements and safe production. This requires the equipment to be more functional, can adapt to different packaging forms, shapes, sizes, material structure and closed structure as a standard function no longer need to add accessories or other customized solutions, can fully and effectively solve the product needs of various uses.
High efficiency and intelligence
Affected by the increasingly fierce market competition in the downstream industry, large-scale and intensive production forms, rising human resource costs and other factors, packaging equipment is playing an increasingly important role in production and logistics. Highly automated, efficient, intelligent and energy-saving packaging equipment has been favored by the downstream industry. The traditional packaging equipment is gradually combined with the field bus technology, transmission control technology, motion control technology, automatic identification technology and safety detection technology, so that the intelligent packaging equipment arises at the historic moment and is constantly improved. Fully automatic, unmanned, integrated packaging equipment is the good opportunity to flourish at present. Packaging machinery will cooperate with the trend of industrial automation, and constantly promote the overall competitiveness of intelligent packaging equipment.
Green environmental protection
The future of green environmental protection is the same environmental theme, the theme for packaging industry which is closely linked with the people's life, how to improve the mechanical, how to be more to keep up with the idea of green production how to make production safer, more delicate, more suited to demand, and many other problems also need to think ahead of our business social issue.
