Green packaging application

Today's green products involve eating, wearing, using, living, playing and other fields. Take green foods as an example, organic food products strictly follow production, processing, packaging, transportation, and storage processes to meet hygiene standards throughout the production process. As soon as China joins the WTO, there will be more goods exported in the future and the requirements for product packaging will be more stringent.

Speaking of product packaging, although we all know that the role of packaging is to protect the goods, beautify the goods, and increase the added value. It also serves as an advertising campaign, stimulating consumer interest and motivating customers. However, from the perspective of green packaging requirements, green packaging is also called “friends of the environment,” “ecological packaging,” “pollution-free packaging,” and its most important meaning is protection of the environment and the regeneration of resources.” It is defined as Recycling, reusing or degrading corrosion, and appropriate packaging that does not cause harm to humans and the environment throughout the product's life cycle."

From the requirements of the above-mentioned green packaging, packaging is divided into single packaging, internal packaging, and external packaging; functional and domestic packaging and export packaging, special packaging; according to the use of materials divided into wooden boxes, cartons, glass and other Containers, plastics, bags, hemp ropes, metals, plants and other packaging; according to the packaging method is divided into waterproof, moisture, rust, buffer, vacuum, shading, heat, cold, decompression, freezing, fire, gas, Explosion-proof and other packaging. However, product packaging is not only beautiful and firm. The requirements for green packaging in the future will be based on the first meaning and reduction of packaging, that is, the amount of packaging should be reduced under the conditions of protection, convenience, and sales. The second requirement is repeated use, which is easy to recycle and regenerate, and it can be used to achieve the purpose of use. Such as KFC, McDonald's will be recycled after fast food packaging recycling, both to achieve the purpose of green harmless, but also reduce the packaging test by recycling. In the future, non-degradable plastic packaging is strictly prohibited, and biodegradable packaging must be recycled.

The 21st century is the era of green consumption and will be a green century full of boundless vitality. According to reports, countries in the world are paying more attention to the implementation of environmental protection and sustainable development strategies. For this reason, green environmental protection, green consumption, green technology, green products, green culture, and green packaging have become the mainstream of the world. The concept of consumption advocated by it and the green products produced by producers and operators must all consider how green packaging can meet the needs of domestic and foreign markets.

A prominent problem currently facing is that product packaging should not only have beautiful packaging, special features, simplicity, practicality, but also innovative strategies to meet the requirements of the times and cater to the consumer demand of modern urban and rural residents and the needs of foreign markets. The packaging material to be purchased is harmless to humans and organisms; it does not contain toxic elements, halogen heavy metals, or its content is controlled below relevant standards.

For this reason, higher requirements are placed on green packaging for production and business units such as industrial and commercial enterprises, agriculture, animal husbandry, and aquatic products. The production and business operators are required to be market-centered and target consumers' needs. Packaging products should be collected from raw materials, processed materials, manufactured products, sold products, used products, recycled, recycled, and recycled until the final processing of the entire life cycle. The environment causes public hazards. To this end, it is necessary to change the packaging strategy and export packaging strategy to meet the new requirements of green packaging.
