Convenient packaging for green packaging

I. To cater for future development and develop green packaging

In 2003, information at the United States International Packaging Exhibition showed that the trend of packaging in the next decade is to provide consumers with more convenient packaging. Since 70% of consumers are shopping nearby, retail packaging has become an important factor affecting sales promotion. Consumers like the packaging of different shapes, specifications, styles and weights. For this reason, retail stores pay more attention to product packaging design.

Another message is: The future packaging materials and packaging systems will be the trend of decreasing total costs. The packaging industry uses lighter materials to reduce shipping costs, suppliers and manufacturers move toward the least amount of materials, shorten production time, use special designs, and provide a variety of packaging operations. The packaging industry is working to reduce packaging waste and manpower required in the process, and how to reduce inventory and handling costs in the distribution system.

Environmental issues are the main theme of packaging and the development of green packaging; reduction of environmental pollution is a major event for both the country and the people. It is also a major event for the country and the company to establish its reputation. Japan's packaging regulations stipulate that packaging costs should be less than 15% of the value of goods; Italy's plastic bag pollution tax is 100 lire/a. Recently, South Korea has introduced a series of measures to strictly limit the use of disposable goods including packaging. Shoppers will not be given shopping bags at shopping malls in Korea. If customers don't bring their own bags, they will need to spend 100 won (approx. 0.8 yuan) to buy them. Shops will also be repurchased according to the original price, and customers can also use old bags to go to the mall. New bags to control the production of packaging waste. Many other countries also provide effective packaging regulations, strictly control the production of packaging waste and emphasize recycling. Our country has a large population. According to the use of each person every day and five plastic bags, the consequences will be disastrous.

Second, the concept of convenient packaging and the proposed problems

Convenient packaging concept:

1. The design of packaging structure is simple and reasonable, which is conducive to folding, opening and closing, folding and storage, such as the design of various convenient paper bags.

2, low cost. Convenient packaging uses less raw materials, making it possible to make simple paper bags and cartons from reproducible moisture-proof paper.

When designing, attention should be paid to the opening and closing of the packaging box, and folding and stacking in a flat shape. The whole is convenient for combination operation; the portable part is firm and durable; the volume in the transportation process is as small as possible, which can reduce the cost and improve the transportation efficiency. To make successful packaging design successful, you need to do the following tasks.

1. The State needs to formulate practical measures to restrict the use of disposable packaging and plastic bags, and to eliminate the unlimited availability of plastic bags. At the same time, it is of great significance to strengthen the recycling and utilization of waste. This is not only a technical issue, but also a design issue. It is also a legal issue. It requires government, enterprises, design, and social consumers to work together to achieve the 3R principle of packaging waste disposal, that is, reduce and reuse. (Reu8e), Recycle, to achieve the ultimate goal of protecting the environment.

2. At the same time as a specialty store or supermarket sells a series of products of the same crystal brand, according to the needs of the product, the design of a simple package is consciously introduced to replace the convenient plastic bag of the store. For example, McDonald's fast food-style packaging and products are introduced at the same time, such as series foods, series of candy, series of dried fruits and other cooked food, where companies and design agencies need to play a role in guiding consumption.

3, convenient packaging has a special product of the special nature. Such as the use of specific product symbols and signs of wrapping paper or paper bags. Using specific packaging structures and design packaging styles can avoid many repetitive designs and highlight the brand and characteristics of the product.

4. The packaging of goods and the contents of the packaging are all affiliated. Bulk items, oily items, snack foods, etc. are each adapted to the packaging materials and structural styles.

Third, the application of paper bags

In the United States and Japan, paper bags are second only to paper cartons. Paper bags are one of the oldest and most widely used forms of packaging and have many advantages.

Simplicity Among all kinds of packaging methods, paper bags are the simplest and most efficient general packaging. In retail stores, salespersons can pack without skilled skills. The sealing of bag mouths is simple and easy to open, even if it is convenient. It is the buyer who can also pack and operate it by himself.

Low price In all packaging forms, in addition to the form of belts and other packaging accessories, paper bags are undoubtedly the cheapest packaging containers, because paper bags are light and freight is the cheapest (except heavy bag packaging).

The perimeter of the anti-pollution paper bag is completely closed, so it can effectively prevent dust and other external harmful substances from contaminating the contents. In addition, the harmful components in the paper are minimal and will not contaminate the contents, which is conducive to food packaging.

The suitability of the contents to be packaged with paper bags is not limited by the appearance of the product, and whatever the shape of the product can be packaged in bags.

Items that are easy to carry and carry in a bag are easy to carry, carry, stack, store, and store.
