[China Packaging News] the "double 11" in 2017 has ended vigorously. It is estimated that the total volume of express business in China is expected to exceed 1.5 billion pieces, but experts said that according to research, the recycling rate of express packages is far from enough

shopping on the Internet has become a new lifestyle that affects hundreds of millions of people. Houenlong, President of Suning Tesco, said in an interview with CNR that in 2016, the corrugated box base paper used for express parcels in China was about 72 million trees, and only 1.555 million trees were used in a small Xing'an Mountain. The "double 11" in 2017 has ended vigorously. Recently, the investment in polyurethane exterior wall insulation material industry has increased sharply. It is estimated that the total volume of express business in China is expected to exceed 1.5 billion pieces, but experts said that according to research, the recycling rate of express packages is far from enough. The joint issuance of materials by ten departments determines the relevant guidance on the quality of the experimental machine, and the green development of the express industry still needs to be explored

package "These express companies account for 90% of the express market share in the country, which is enough to circle the earth seven and a half times.

the National Post Office predicts that during the double 11 this year, the total volume of express yurucheng business in the country is expected to exceed 1.5 billion pieces. If these packaging boxes are connected, the number of packages on the double 11 is enough to circle the earth seven and a half times.

how to deal with express garbage with a huge amount, a wide variety and rapid growth is attracting more and more attention. At the site of a well-known express delivery enterprise in Xicheng District, Beijing, the staff said that the waste of express delivery was mainly handled by customers

in fact, many consumers will throw away the box after the express is opened. Ms. Zhu, a consumer in Jiangsu Province, said, "plastic must not be thrown away at all, because that kind of plastic is very thin, it is really not very environmentally friendly, and it is not usually used."

if these express boxes are useless at home, they can be sold to the waste purchase station. However, the price of packaging cartons is very low. Some buyers said that one kilogram can only be sold for 80 cents. Many people don't collect cartons and sell them

how to deal with the huge number of paper boxes thrown into the garbage can

a staff member of a waste treatment company in Beijing told that the recycled waste paper and waste cartons would be beaten into pulp, made into corrugated paper, and then made into cartons. If it cannot be recycled, it will be used for incineration and power generation

corrugated boxes are mainly used in China's express delivery industry. Corrugated base paper is generally made by mixing one or more of wood pulp, straw pulp and waste pulp. Professor wenzongguo, director of the circular economy industry research center of Tsinghua University, said that in fact, only about a quarter of express cartons are recycled. "The recovery rate is relatively low. We have done some research before. In terms of weight, the recovery rate of express cartons is only about 50% to 60%, and the recycling rate of recycling is only about 50%

another three quarters have entered China's environmental sanitation system, some of which are reused, and the other are landfilled or incinerated. The treatment methods of different cities are different

ten sectors: by 2020, the application proportion of degradable green packaging materials will increase to 50%

the huge express waste has increased the pressure on the environment. Recently, the State Post Office, the national development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of science and technology and other ten departments jointly issued the "guiding opinions on jointly promoting green packaging in the express industry", which defined the three major goals during the "13th five year plan", namely, greening, reduction and recycling, and achieved obvious results. It is proposed that by 2020, the application proportion of degradable green packaging materials will be increased to 50%. This year's double 11, major express companies have taken measures on Green Express

in view of the existing problems, the opinions of the ten departments made it clear that it is necessary to improve the regulations and standards of green packaging in the express industry, increase the supply and use of express green packaging products, and implement the green certification of express packaging products. Professor wenzongguo believes that at present, there is no unified and mandatory green packaging standard in China, and express delivery has the problem of excessive packaging. The materials and shapes used by various companies are inconsistent, which is not conducive to recycling. He suggests that the relevant legislative provisions on express packaging should be improved as soon as possible, "it is necessary to specify the specification, level and even quality of packaging materials, and even have labels in laws, regulations and standards."

this year's double 11 ended with a bang. People are amazed at the huge volume of transactions and the amazing volume of express delivery, but in the next few days, people may come back to count the amount of refunds and the number of fake goods this year. Get rid of the busy numbers, real sales, ensure the quality of goods, and how to make express packaging greener. These are the things that should be paid more attention to after the prosperity
