China corrugated box industry status and trends (2)

The integration of forest, pulp, and paper resources is accelerating.
Experts know: What does the carton factory do? Move paper in, process paper cartons out or paper. The bulk of the cost of the company is that paper and paper account for 75% of the total cost of the company. Carton is a processing industry, dry carton is a bitter trade, carton book is profitable, and the competition is fierce and dangerous. Small carton factory, low investment, low technical content, so the carton factory is particularly large, and very scattered, the average life expectancy is short, carton factory is like a switch factory, often open and close, the industry is very unstable, what are the reasons? China's paper Long-term separation of industry resources. Planting forests, pulp, paper, cartons, and waste paper each have their own "sweeping snow before the door." China's forest resources are poor, forests are not replanted and felled. Wood pulp relies on imports for a long period of time. Paper does not produce pulp and it does not do cartons or cartons. The production paper is used to find paper mills, and the used waste paper is distributed. This long-term separation of paper resources is the backwardness of the paper industry in our country, and the backwardness brings about great waste. In recent years, great changes have taken place in China's paper industry. From the separation of paper resources, it has begun to emerge from integration and integration. 

China's paper industry began to implement the integration of forestry, pulp, and paper, and the International Paper Group's investment in China also developed the integration of paper industry resources. Under the influence of the integration of China's paper industry, many papermaking groups in China have focused on the development of carton production in recent years. Anhui Ma’anshan Eagle’s Paper Group set up a carton factory locally three years ago. Two high-grade corrugated production lines were introduced before and after, with an annual output value of nearly 100 million yuan. Then, in order to increase the scale of papermaking and expand the output of papermaking, they successively Carton factory has attracted much attention from the industry. In recent years, paper mills have made cardboard cartons and paper cartons have set up paper mills for new developments. 

The integration of forestry, pulp, and paper in China's paper industry relies heavily on the development of forest and pulp resources. In China, it is possible to effectively grow forest land and develop forestry economy. With Linyuan, it is possible to change the long-term dependence on imported wood pulp. The international pulp price has fluctuate very violently in recent years. The amplitude above and below exceeds 100%, and the paper price cannot be so greatly jumped. Paper raw materials are in the hands of others, and we will always be passive and suffer. And huge economic losses. 

China's paper market has become a hot spot for investment in China. In this short span of several years, the international paper giants have invested in the mainland and have become an important part of China's paper industry. According to our incomplete understanding, at present, the Indonesian Golden Light Group - Asia Pulp & Paper Company (APP) is one of the top ten paper companies in the world and the largest paper group in Asia. No one can be in the Chinese paper industry. ratio. China has 4 billion U.S. dollars of assets, advanced equipment, and sales of 13.1 billion yuan last year. In the field of forest-pulp-paper integration, APP has established five major forest plantations in Guangdong, Guangxi, and Hainan, planting more than 1.5 million mu, and this year it will expand by more than 100 million mu. The "Princess of Japan Paper," ranked sixth in the global paper industry, has invested 13.9 billion yuan in Jiangsu Nantong this year, with an annual production of 1.2 million tons. In the United States, “Baolong” Paper, Hong Kong’s “Lee Wen” Paper, and “Tongda” Paper have established papermaking bases in the Yangtze River Delta’s “Taicang”, “Changshu” and “Changzhou” regions, mainly producing paperboard cartons. At the same time, the introduction of high-grade corrugated production line to produce cartons.

The total number of corrugated production lines in China will come down from the peak. In the future, the number of corrugated production lines will come down year after year, while the high-grade corrugated production line will go up step by step. This one up and down, the inevitable trend of market economy development. Whatever is lacking in society, people are pursuing quantity and satisfying basic needs; when society has something out of surplus, people must pay attention to quality and meet higher demands. This is basic knowledge. Now, what is the extent of corrugated cartons production lines in China? The average operating rate of corrugated production lines is now below 40%, which is more than 1 times of the total. From the level of future development of the production line, it is not more than 1 times, and dozens of times. For example, an Italian corrugated production line introduced by Changzhou Changfeng Packaging Co., Ltd. has value and output equivalent to more than 20 domestic production lines. In the future, we will examine the level of corrugated cartons in an area instead of looking at the total number of production lines, but rather how many high-end production lines are known. In the future, the width of corrugated production lines will grow from narrow to wide; the speed of the production line will be medium to fast. High-speed development; automation control (computer) develops from single-row to serialization. With the development of corrugated production lines to high grades, those low-grade aging production lines will be gradually phased out. The production lines that are treated as “second-hand goods” can only be used as waste products and not as normal production lines. 

Now that there is a serious excess of corrugated production lines, some people have suggested that it is not possible to put on the production line in the future. This is a wrong view. In fact, the development of the corrugated box industry has always been on the upswing and has never stopped the development of high grades. What about the following equipment of the corrugated production line? In a word, there is nothing wrong with following the “production line” and it is also necessary to use less and more precision.

The corrugated box industry and carton machinery manufacturing industry are even more specialized in the division of labor.
Corrugated carton manufacturers' “centralized plate making and decentralized processing” is developed from the coastal economically developed regions to other parts of China. Carton machinery manufacturing industry, from large-scale enterprises in the production of high-grade corrugated production line, and gradually to high-grade professional development. The medium and low-grade corrugated production lines and post-processing equipment of the production line of small and medium-sized enterprises are gradually developing professionally in later-stage equipment. The middle-to-high-grade corrugated production line is manufactured from a single centralized production line, and is specialized in decentralized processing and centralized assembly. The domestically produced parts are combined with imported accessories. In the future, high-end production lines will gradually shift from the competition among the manufacturing industries in mainland China to the competition between mainland China and Taiwan's manufacturing industry. The competition will be in quality and quality in technology and cost. After the carton equipment manufacturing, also follow the production line to improve the grade and quality. Professional division of labor is a measure of the level of an industry. The deepening, refinement, and refinement of professional division of labor represent the level of modernization. 

The combination of corrugated cardboard with color printing and honeycomb paperboard has become a new trend in the future.
The appearance of corrugated boxes has become the focus of market users. China's long-term use of corrugated board standards as the quality of cartons, due to the popularity of the production line and the development of high-grade line, the quality of corrugated board has been resolved. The quality of the carton is changed from cardboard to carton printing and the appearance of the carton.
