Packaging

Packaging serves as a crucial bridge between products and consumers. The packaging industry has a wide range of applications and the requirements of each sector are unique. For example, the food packaging industry needs to extend the shelf life, while the industrial packaging industry needs higher mechanical properties to resist mechanical damage. Compared with other packaging products, consumers are more and more inclined to plastic packaging, because plastic packaging is lighter and easier to handle. Similarly, large manufacturers prefer plastic packaging because of the lower production costs of plastics.

Why Use Plastics in the Packaging Industry

Plastics can be widely used as packaging materials in different industries for the following main reasons:

• Plastics are lightweight and cost-effective, and can provide durability, safety and flexibility while maintaining hygiene.
• Plastics are versatile, recyclable, sustainable, and have a low energy demand during the production process.
• Plastics can protect, preserve, store and transport products in a convenient and effective way.

Plastic Applications for Packaging

Plastics play an important role in the packaging industry with their excellent properties. The main applications are as follows:

• Food packaging: Plastics are widely used for food packaging because of their ability to preserve freshness, prevent contamination and extend shelf life. They not only ensure the safety and convenience of food storage, but also provide a positive market prospect.
• Beverage packaging: Plastic containers such as PET bottles are commonly used to package drinks such as fruit juice and soda. These plastic containers are lightweight, unbreakable, easy to recycle, and are ideal packaging for various beverages.
• Personal care and cosmetics packaging: Plastics are an integral part of personal care and cosmetics packaging. They ensure that products are hygienic and protected from external factors. In addition, plastics offer design flexibility. They can be designed in highly creative shapes and sizes to enhance brand image.
• Pharmaceutical packaging: Plastics play a vital role in pharmaceutical packaging to ensure the safe storage and delivery of medicines. Plastic containers such as blister packs and vials are designed to maintain product integrity and tamper resistance.
• E-commerce packaging: With the vigorous development of e-commerce and the expansion of global export activities, the demand for plastic packaging is increasing. Plastics can be used as packaging materials such as bubble wrap, air pillows, and protective sleeves. These packaging materials prevent product damage during transportation and improve the customer's out-of-the-box experience.
