What innovations will the packaging industry see?
At present, the world has entered a major change unseen in a century, and different industries will also undergo profound changes. What major changes will take place in the packaging industry in the future?
1. The arrival of the era of packaging automation
Automation is an important milestone in the development of the industry. From manual to mechanization, from mechanization to the combination of electronic and mechanization, automation has emerged. Therefore, we found that the packaging industry automation is based on the packaging automation formed by robotic arms and grippers, which can eliminate human differences and do safe processing, thereby promoting the development of the industry. The automation of the packaging industry is carried out step by step, which is the basis for the development of the entire industry. This kind of automation realizes a model with machines as the core and information control as the means, which opens the stage of industry progress.
2. The arrival of the era of customized packaging
Since the traditional manufacturing industry is to produce products to meet customers' solutions to current problems. However, due to the improvement of management capabilities and the strengthening of customer services, especially the arrival of the era of service-oriented transformation, customized packaging has become a new service method for customer problems after automation. Customization can understand the needs of customers, meet customer needs, and make customers' personalization well reflected.
3. The arrival of the era of degradable packaging
Packaging emphasizes packaging materials, and the original plastics are not degradable. With the introduction of the plastic restriction order in our country in 2021, the international community has proposed a complete plastic ban in 2024, so finding biodegradable packaging has become a market effort. Biodegradation can revolutionize packaging materials, including starch, cellulose, polylactic acid (PLA), polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), and polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), as well as other biopolymers New packaging materials, these packaging materials have formed the concept of biodegradation. This is the arrival of a new era that we can see, and the development space is very large.
4. The arrival of the era of packaging Internet
The Internet has profoundly changed society, and the Internet has formed the characteristics of people's extensive connection. At present, it has moved from the Internet era to the digital economy era, but the Internet era still realizes a combination of machines, people and customers, so a concept of digital transformation has been formed. As a result, a concept of smart packaging has been formed. Through technologies such as smart packaging, QR code smart labels, RFID and near field communication (NFC) chips, authentication, connectivity, and security are guaranteed. This brings AR packaging formed by AR technology, creating more opportunities to interact with customers through the provision of a series of product content, discount codes and video tutorials.
5. Changes in returnable packaging
Recyclable packaging is an important area in the future, both an environmental concept and an energy saving concept. More and more countries prohibit the use of single-use plastics. In order to meet regulatory requirements, companies can use degradable plastics, especially recyclables, on the one hand; on the other hand, they can save raw materials and make full use of them to reflect value. For example, post-consumer resin (PCR) is a recyclable packaging material extracted from waste and has played a very large role. This is a circular use of the packaging field.
6. 3D printing
3D printing is actually a new model based on Internet technology. Through 3D printing, it can solve the high cost, time-consuming and wasteful production of traditional enterprises. Through 3D printing, one-time molding can be used to avoid the generation of more plastic waste. This technology is gradually improving and maturing, and it will become the future. an important track.
The above are several innovative changes in the packaging industry before the big change...
