Interpretation of the development status of China's packaging machinery industry

China's packaging machinery started relatively late, and the industrial system was not formed in 1980. After the reform and opening up, the demand for packaging machinery from the society increased constantly. With the government's attention and support, China's packaging machinery developed rapidly, with an average annual growth rate of over 30%. In the 1990s, it still grew by more than 20%. After more than 20 years of development, China packaging machinery has become one of the top 10 industries in the machinery industry.

Industry operating efficiency tends to improve

With the packaging gradually evolved into a marketing tool and consumer demand for packaging convenience and product information, packaging machinery market has also made considerable progress. From 2010 to 2017, China's main business income of packaging special equipment shows an overall growth trend, but the growth rate fluctuates greatly. In 2017, China's main business income of packaging special equipment was 32.51 billion yuan, up 4.89% year on year.

Similar to the main operating income above the scale of packaging special equipment, in recent years, the total profit of China's packaging special equipment also presents instability, but generally tends to be good for development, increasing from 1.321 billion yuan in 2010 to 1.793 billion yuan in 2017, a total increase of 472 million yuan.

With the rapid development of packaging market demand, China's packaging machinery industry has also ushered in a good period of development under the promotion of such factors as the enhancement of technical level and the gradual emergence of import substitution effect. From 2014 to 2017, the output of special packaging equipment in China was in a relatively stable state, maintaining around 10 sets. As of July 2018, the output of special packaging equipment in China reached 51,515 sets, down by 6.8% year on year.

Zhejiang production is the largest, hebei the fastest growth

From January to July, 2018, the output of packaging special equipment in major regions of the country showed a year-on-year growth, except for jiangsu, jilin and hebei, the other regions all realized a significant downward trend. The top five provinces and cities are zhejiang province, Beijing, hubei province, Shanghai and guangdong province, but zhejiang province has completed the cumulative production of 9,984 units, down 21.81% year on year. The cumulative output of Beijing has reached 8,230 units, down 3.14% year-on-year. Hubei completed the cumulative production of 7306 units, down 2.79% year on year; Shanghai completed the cumulative production of 5,090 units, down 6.07 percent year-on-year. Guangdong completed the cumulative production of 4,922 units, down 39.93 percent year-on-year.

Packaging professional equipment development trend

According to the "2018-2023 China packaging industry market forecast and investment strategic planning analysis report" analysis, in recent years, China's packaging machinery industry has made rapid development, but also some low-level repeated construction phenomenon. According to relevant data, compared with industrial developed countries, China's food and packaging machinery products are 25% to 30% lacking in variety and 15-25 years behind in technical level. The future development of China's packaging machinery market will present the following development trends:

Trend 1: packaging machinery technology content is increasing

China's existing packaging machinery products are of low technical content, while many advanced technologies have been applied to packaging machinery in foreign countries, such as remote control technology (including monitoring), stepper motor technology, automatic flexible compensation technology, laser cutting technology, information processing technology and so on.

Trend 2: packaging machinery market is becoming increasingly monopolized

At present, in addition to corrugated box packaging machinery and some small packaging machinery in China has a certain scale and advantages, other packaging machinery is almost not systematic and scale, especially in the market demand for some complete packaging production lines, in the world packaging market are monopolized by several large packaging machinery enterprises (groups).

Trend three: packaging machinery parts production specialization

International packaging world attaches great importance to improve the packing machinery processing and the whole packaging system general ability, so packaging machinery spare parts production specialization is the inevitable trend in the development, a lot of parts by the packaging machinery factory production no longer, but by some common standard parts factory production, some special parts by highly specialized production factory production, really famous packing machine factory will likely be assembly plant. Products to multi-functional and single, high-speed bipolar development. The ultimate function of packaging machinery is to improve production efficiency and product diversification.
