Honeycomb carton has become a new type of packaging material!

In 2018, for manufacturing companies, the rise in raw materials represented by paper products still has a great impact. "In April, the price of packaging paper rose by 6%-8% compared with March. Lin Please, president of Dongguan Paper Products Manufacturing Industry Association. Driven by leading enterprises, the paper industry has set off a new round of growth this year. The price has had varying degrees of impact on the upstream and downstream industrial chains.

The letter of price increase for packaging paper strikes again, and corrugated paper and boxboard paper are raised by 50-100 yuan / ton

From April 23rd to April 24th, many paper mills in Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong and other provinces and cities announced price increases, with an increase of 50-100 yuan/ton. As in the past, the reason for the price increase announced by the paper mill this time is still that the price of waste paper raw materials has risen sharply, resulting in an increase in production costs.

However, according to relevant data, from April to now, although the price of packaging paper has fluctuated many times, it still shows a trend of upward fluctuations. According to the information disclosed by people from paper mills, packaging mills and paper industry analysts, the price of packaging paper may be easy to rise and difficult to fall under the strong support of the price of waste paper and the gradual recovery of market demand. price trend.

Many parties say that demand will improve in May, and paper prices still have room to rise

However, some corrugated paper dealers revealed that in some areas, the number of orders is considerable. All in all, the current market is in a stalemate, with paper prices rising and falling, and the specific performance varies from region to region.

Why are paper prices so high?

A person in charge of a company bluntly said that with the rapid increase in environmental protection requirements in recent years, a number of small and medium-sized paper mills have been shut down or integrated into production. The rise in paper prices is inseparable from the rising prices of raw materials. It seems that this is the result of multiple factors such as shortage of raw materials, increased environmental protection requirements, and labor costs.

In addition to following the trend and increasing prices, are there other countermeasures?

Many companies have already started to prepare. On the one hand, looking for alternatives to carton boxes and developing new material packaging; on the other hand, minimizing packaging costs has gradually become a major trend in recent years. Several major brands such as Midea, Haier, Hisense, and SF Express have gradually put into use honeycomb carton boxes, which greatly reduces packaging costs and is more in line with national environmental protection requirements.

Today's world has entered a high-tech and information age, we must face reality, be practical and pragmatic, learn from others without repeating others; we must accelerate progress, but also seek truth from facts; we must strengthen ourselves, and horizontally combine to continuously improve. The technical grade and overall level of honeycomb paperboard equipment and products, and at the same time continue to develop, build and improve the honeycomb paperboard market, win the market with integrity, strive for the market with quality, gain the market with service, and expand the market with development. We believe that in the near future, honeycomb paperboard will have new development and new progress achievements.
