Future development of beverage packaging materials

According to Canadean's research, whether in the world or in Western Europe (China Packaging Network), the market share of PET and glass as packaging materials are among the best, which is also the demand for global bottled water and carbonated beverage market by region. Obvious performance. The market share of metal cans in the Western European market is much lower than in the global market. In other countries or regions, among the many materials used to package carbonated drinks, metal cans appear to be more active. Most beverage manufacturers only pay attention to economic efficiency, and rarely consider issues from an ecological perspective. "More and more products require more differentiated packaging" has become the trend of the beverage industry. The development of beverage packaging machinery technology will become the ultimate driving force of this trend.

In the next 3-5 years, the beverage market will develop low-sugar or sugar-free beverages as well as natural and dairy-containing products while developing existing juices, teas, bottled drinking water, functional beverages, and carbonated beverages. And other healthy beverages are developing. The development trend of products will further promote the development of differentiated packaging, such as PET aseptic cold filling and packaging, HDPE (barrier layer in the middle) milk packaging (packaged products), and aseptic carton packaging. The diversity of beverage product development will ultimately drive innovation in beverage packaging materials and structures. The unique advantages of low consumption of raw materials, low cost, and ease of portability have determined that beverage packaging must be continuously improved in technology, in order to keep pace with the development of beverages, beers, red wine, coffee, honey and carbonic acid that are commonly used as packaging materials for cans or glass. Drinks and other beverages, with the continuous improvement of functional films, plastic flexible packaging replacement bottled containers, and widely used is an inevitable trend.

The greening of packaging materials and production processes indicates that solvent-free composites and extruded composite multi-layer co-extruded functional films will find more applications in beverage packaging. The future world affects six trends in the beverage packaging material market: eye-catching disposable plastics; pursuing cost-effective green plastics (packaging materials); and plastics as the most preferred material, as fast-paced plastics can be lighter and more Environmental protection; new and more flexible; rapid development of bagging technology, raising its production cost and speed to the high-speed glass bottle production level; the second most simplified, reducing costs and overall carbon footprint, which will become the ultimate trend of the beverage packaging industry.
