Packaging industry and international integration

It is reported that there are more than 15,000 packaging enterprises in China's counties and more than 2.2 million employees. The total output value of the packaging industry in China ranks 14th among the 40 major industries in the national economy and bears more than 3 trillion yuan in domestic commodities annually. Materials and packaging tasks for more than $200 billion worth of export goods. The rapid growth of the packaging industry shows the vitality of the packaging industry under the socialist market economic system. Moreover, as people’s material and cultural needs continue to increase and international competition for goods and markets in the world economy increases after the accession to the WTO, Its status and role in the national economy will be more prominent.
In the development of modern market economy, commodity packaging bears the role of protecting commodities, facilitating storage and transportation, and propagating and beautifying commodities. Its importance is increasingly being valued by manufacturers, businesses, and consumers. With the rapid development of China's national economy, the people’s living standards have greatly improved, and the market economy, especially the various types of commodity supermarkets, has become a universal, and has formed a sharp increase in the use of various types of commodity packaging. After more than 20 years of reform and opening up, China's packaging industry has grown rapidly at an annual rate of 15%.
However, we should also be soberly aware that there is still a big gap between China's packaging industry and the developed countries in the world economy. Such as: industrial structure, enterprise scale, product quality and grade, scientific and technological level and development capacity, basic level of packaging industry, comprehensive utilization level, and environmental protection and personnel quality. The shortage of scientific and technological personnel and the weak development capability are important factors that restrict the development of China's packaging industry and technological progress. Therefore, we must clearly understand China's current packaging industry and understand how to develop China's packaging industry in a fiercely competitive world economy.
With international standards, the adoption of international standards. The foreign exchange earned through exports is an international market business. If we want to show our talents in the international market competition, we must make every effort to make our products internationalized. To achieve product internationalization, an important way is to actively introduce international standards to standardize the company's production behavior to eliminate "technical barriers in trade." In order to win the power to win the international commercial warfare, the standards of many developed countries’ products show an “increase” pattern, that is, the national standard is higher than the international standard, the ministerial standard is higher than the national standard, and the internal control standard of the enterprise is higher than the ministerial standard. Worked on its own product standards to lead the world in leading standards, and constantly refreshed the international standard indicators, effectively promoted the process of internationalization of products driven by technological innovation, and ensured that their foreign trade products were the best in the international market. Many experiences show that adopting international standards to improve product quality is not only a prerequisite for advancing the internationalization of China's enterprise products, but also a potential for enhancing the competitiveness of China's enterprise products in the international market. As long as our enterprises enhance their sense of competition, actively adopt international standards, and actively create conditions for formulating internal control standards that exceed international standards, and ensure high-quality products with high product standards, we can make our products take the road to internationalization. A decisive step.
Formulate a national green packaging development plan. The so-called green packaging not only requires the least packaging materials, has the least amount of waste, but also saves resources and energy; it is easy to recycle, reuse and recycle; the waste burns to produce new energy without secondary pollution; the packaging material is minimally and spontaneously decomposed, not polluted environment. The development of green packaging is a technological revolution in the packaging industry and an inevitable trend for the world packaging industry to adapt to the tide of environmental protection. Especially after having joined the WTO, green packaging has become a new type of non-tariff barrier. For this reason, the packaging industry must change its concepts, strengthen its awareness of pollution-free, and adapt to new competition caused by new standards and new regulations put forward by countries on packaging materials and waste. The development of China's packaging industry should strongly implement the following points: promote the "green design" program, promote appropriate packaging, focus on reducing packaging; establish an effective recycling system for packaging waste, improve the recycling rate of packaging, and develop packaging for recycling; Strengthen policy guidance and support, research and development are not harmful to the ecological environment or little pollution. It is conducive to the replacement of traditional packaging with high-performance, functional packaging materials for recycling. To prohibit or restrict the use of certain packaging materials and strictly control the content of harmful substances; enterprises engaged in waste packaging and packaging should implement a tilt policy and enjoy preferential policies for the environmental protection industry.
To develop education, strengthen the training and introduction of talents, and take the road of joint development of production, education, and research. At present, the development of complex packaging technology, the development of the global market and the strong growth of the packaging industry will inevitably depend more and more on the development of packaging education and the development of packaging human resources. For a long time, China has neglected the role of packaging education and science and technology in the development of the packaging industry, which has made it impossible for packaging companies' human resources to rapidly turn into actual productivity, resulting in a very low human capital stock of packaging companies, and an increase in the phenomenon of brain drain in the packaging industry. Seriously, China's packaging industry is lagging behind in its overall level of science and technology. On the one hand, it lacks scientific and technological achievements. On the other hand, certain scientific and technological achievements cannot be directly used in production to directly translate into productivity. In view of this, China must pay close attention to the training and introduction of talents at this stage. Talent development should be used as the basic strategy for the development of China's packaging industry.
