03 Paper container from barbaric growth to steady and sustainable development

With the continuous promotion of the global plastic policy, brands at home and abroad have launched sustainable development plans, plastic reduction is imperative, and paper container as one of the best substitutes for plastic, has received unprecedented attention and pursuit. In particular, in recent years, the domestic and foreign sales industry has developed rapidly. Last year, the takeout income broke through the scale of one trillion. Driven by paper instead of plastic and stimulated by multiple markets, paper containers are bound to embrace rapid development.

In this context, more and more equipment manufacturers and printing enterprises have flooded into the paper container track. The paper container market once showed a savage growth, but with the maturity of technology, standardization of production and standardization of products, the paper container market is gradually moving towards steady and sustainable development.

The author found that the south China printing labels show innovation to set up a "paper container packing zone", hold huge amounts of paper container production equipment, set on the paper cups, paper bags, paper tableware, such as innovation paper-plastic packaging technology equipment, and environmental protection, paper base, the composite material, can let the audience quickly, systematic and comprehensive understanding of the paper container latest technology, equipment and products.
