With the improvement of production process and technical level, as well as the popularization of the concept of green environmental protection, paper printed packaging materials have been able to partially replace plastic packaging, metal packaging, glass packaging and other forms of packaging due to their advantages such as extensive sources of production materials, low cost, convenient logistics and transportation, easy storage, and recyclable packaging materials.

The printing and packaging products, while meeting the needs of popularization, show the trend of quality, personalization and customization. Green printing and digital printing are developing rapidly. In 2020, the national printing and reproduction industry will achieve an operating revenue of 1199.102 billion yuan and a total profit of 55.502 billion yuan. Among them, the business income of packaging, decoration and printing was 950.331 billion yuan, accounting for 79.25% of the total business income of printing and copying owners.

1. National policies support industry development

The support of national policies will bring long-term encouragement and support to the paper product printing and packaging industry. The country has issued relevant policies to encourage and support the development of the paper product printing and packaging industry. In addition, the state has successively revised laws and regulations such as the Cleaner Production Promotion Law of the People's Republic of China, the Environmental Protection Law of the People's Republic of China, and the Measures for Reporting the Use and Recycling of Disposable Plastic Products in the Commercial Field (for Trial Implementation) to further clarify the mandatory requirements of paper products printing and packaging in environmental protection, which is conducive to the further growth of industry market demand.

2. The growth of residents' income drives the development of packaging industry

With the continuous development of China's economy, the per capita income of residents continues to grow, and the demand for consumption is also growing. All kinds of consumer goods can not be separated from packaging, and paper packaging accounts for the largest proportion of all packaging, so the growth of social consumer goods will continue to drive the development of paper printing and packaging industry.

3. The demand for printing and packaging of paper products increases due to the improvement of requirements for environmental protection

In recent years, the National Development and Reform Commission and other departments have successively issued the Opinions on Further Strengthening the Control of Plastic Pollution, the Opinions on Further Strengthening the Control of Plastic Pollution, the Notice on Accelerating the Green Transformation of Express Packaging and other documents. Environmental protection requirements are increased layer by layer. China is paying more attention to green development and sustainable development while developing rapidly. In this context, every link of paper packaging products, from raw materials to packaging design, manufacturing to product recycling, can maximize resource conservation, efficiency and harmlessness. Paper packaging products have broad market prospects.
