Comments on the trend of China's carton industry

the advanced equipment, industry scale, product quality and output value benefits of Guangdong carton packaging have surpassed those of other provinces and cities in the country. This is my view after visiting the carton packaging industry exhibition in Guangdong recently, and then inspecting the carton packaging and carton machinery enterprises in Guangdong. There are about 800 corrugated board production lines representing the high level of the carton industry in Guangdong, while our Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai combined, there are less than 500 lines. The annual output value of carton packaging in Guangdong is about 15billion. And our Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai combined, about 13billion. When processing cartons, Guangdong enterprises generally use high strength, low gram weight, low cost and quality assurance. The production of carton paper by our mainland enterprises is still fluctuating. In Guangdong carton packaging market, supply and demand are basically balanced, enterprises compete in an orderly manner, large and small enterprises have a clear division of specialization, and enterprises are in a good state of development, which are better than mainland enterprises. Guangdong's carton packaging surpasses, thanks to Guangdong's strong economic strength and the industry's leading and developed light industry; It also benefited from the return of Hong Kong (the proportion of cartons supplied to Hong Kong accounted for 30% of Guangdong's share) and the integration with Guangdong's economy, and Hong Kong was connected to the international market. Guangdong is blessed by nature

China's carton packaging industry has moved from vicious competition to benign development; From middle and low level to high level; From domestic high level to international level

the development future of carton packaging in China lies in combination, intended to work together. In the future, if the enterprises do not change, they will process cartons on cartons and produce cartons on cartons. Sooner or later, they will be eliminated

-- the combination of carton packaging and papermaking. The combination of cartons and papermaking has long been realized in developed countries; Paper making is combined with forest. However, China has been separated for a long time. In recent years, there has been a combination of cartons and papermaking, and the combination of papermaking and cartons, and the development momentum is very fast. "Shanying paper industry group company" in Maanshan City, Anhui Province has brought in a small carton factory and invested in a corrugated production line, which mainly produces paperboard and supplies small factories in the surrounding areas. Due to self papermaking, low paper cost, and the two advantages of welfare enterprises, the annual output value is 60million, which not only sells tens of thousands of tons of paper, but also obtains considerable profits. They have tasted the sweetness, and in the future, they are on a high-end line, ready to make 100 million. At the same time, three carton factories were merged and newly established in Suzhou and Yangzhou. Nanjing Jiangning paper mill invested in cartons online this year, specializing in the production of corrugated board. The situation is very good. In Dongguan, Guangdong Province, we saw the Hong Kong wholly-owned "Liwen paper mill Co., Ltd." which not only makes paper, but also produces cartons, which is a complete combination. What is the scale of the combination of "Liwen" papermaking and cartons? The daily output value is 10million. "Liwen" built its own power plant and wharf in Haiyu Development Zone, Changshu City, Jiangsu Province. Someone asked, "Liwen" in Changshu paper, is not to do cartons? I think the model of "Liwen" in Dongguan will also be applied to Changshu. "Wuxi Hengfeng Paper Industry Co., Ltd." is one of the cartons making paper. The annual output value of cartons is 60million yuan. The funds accumulated in cartons for many years are invested in the establishment of paper mills. Yangzhou Jialong paper products Co., Ltd. also produces cartons. For its own needs, it also runs a paper mill. There is also a form of joint office Changshu Honghua foreign trade packaging Co., Ltd., with an annual output of 40-50 million cartons. They feel that they use a large amount of paper, and they invest in paper making in other places

-- combination of carton and carton (color box). It has long existed abroad. "China Changfeng Packaging Co., Ltd." introduces Italy's high-end corrugated production line, which is known as the first in Asia. It can not only produce AAA corrugated board, but also process the finest corrugated board. It can be seen that foreign countries have combined equipment design. China has long separated cartons from color boxes. In terms of classification, cartons are transportation packaging and large packaging; The color box is sales package and small package. Carton factory produces large packages; The printing factory processes small packages. In the future, we should combine size and packaging. Large, if the deviation from the specified value is detected, the key to the combination is the later printing machine. The high-grade printing requirements of color boxes will lead to the consistency of carton and color box printing

-- combination of carton and honeycomb. In foreign countries, processing honeycomb cartons with honeycomb composite paperboard meets the standard of corrugated cartons, and the cost of honeycomb cartons is 20% lower than that of corrugated cartons. Honeycomb experts from Beijing and Nanjing have successfully trial produced in Beijing. Paper corrugated and paper honeycomb belong to the same paper structure and are siblings. Moreover, the honeycomb carton can be corrugated to show the industry its research results in the production process of high-efficiency carbon fiber composites in recent years. The subsequent tool processing of paperboard, but now the honeycomb carton has not been trial production, let alone mass production. The opening of this road will expand the new field of cartons. It is believed that Chinese carton packaging enterprises will be able to develop honeycomb cartons in the near future

-- carton packaging is far from the combination of advanced areas and backward areas. Now the state calls for the development of the northwest. In addition to the national investment in development, it is more about mobilizing enterprises in developed regions to develop and run enterprises in the northwest. Foreign businessmen are optimistic about China's market and have come to China to invest and set up factories. However, few packaging enterprises in advanced regions set up enterprises in backward regions. Many packaging enterprises only send "Imperial Envoys" to pay special attention to the dumping of products in transit. We should know that the market in backward areas is a potential market and a developing market. There is great potential to develop and set up enterprises there

in the 1990s, I have been communicating and cooperating with famous carton machinery experts in China, and I have some knowledge of them. In recent years, I have many contacts with southern carton machinery to understand the development of southern China. Recently, I visited several carton machinery enterprises after visiting the exhibition, and recently I went to Guangdong carton machinery enterprises for research. After recalling and comparing, I found that the technical focus of China's carton machinery is moving from north to south, and it is expected to form a unique Southern advantage in three to five years. Corrugated sheet and single-sided machines have been eliminated in developed areas of carton packaging; Low grade production lines are also disappearing. The primary carton machinery here will be used for a period of time in the less developed areas of carton packaging, but it will only have a service life of three to five years. The specialization of carton packaging is actually divided into two parts. One is the cardboard line to ensure the internal quality of cardboard; At one end is a printing machine, which shows the appearance and image quality of the carton. What kind of equipment, what kind of cartons to produce; What grade of equipment, processing what kind of carton quality. Equipment is the key to the competition among large enterprises in the future, which has been the consensus of carton experts. Now the domestic technology of low-grade tile line general printing machines has matured. In recent years, many unknown machinery factories are doing a lot of advertising, and processing machinery is sold cheaply, which is an impact on high-grade carton equipment, but this phenomenon will not last long

the manufacturing technology of carton equipment in China, northern enterprises focus on research, but also rely on practice to explore and develop cautiously. Southern enterprises are taking advantage of foreign advanced technology and turning it into mine for rapid development. It's not that northern enterprises don't understand the know-how of Southern enterprises, and state-owned enterprises have little money in their financial accounts, so they can only bite the old bones. The money in the bag of the boss of Southern enterprises is bulging, which is the difference between the north and the south

the new development of carton machinery: the back lane will change to the front lane, and the front Lane will change to the back lane. What's going on? The former is the corrugated production line, which has fully guaranteed the quality of paper analysis due to the saturation of aliphatic double bonds. There is a mismatch between back-end printing and the front-end printing of many enterprises. Now cartons and color boxes are emphasizing back-end printing, and we should strengthen back-end printing. So it is necessary to change the position. We should also see the role of back printing, which is not only needed by large enterprises, but also by small enterprises. A small paper box factory in Suzhou has treated all domestic single-sided machines and single-sided machines for corrugated production, and has entered Taiwan's printing machines and carton gluing machines. The investment is small. It takes cardboard from large enterprises and processes cartons that are exactly the same as those processed by large enterprises. In other words, small and medium-sized enterprises on the high-end printing press, can also compete with large enterprises. Therefore, the back track printer will play an important role for a long time in the future
