How will the pharmaceutical packaging industry change in 2018?

China is the second largest packaging country in the world after the United States. Relevant data show that the total output value of the national packaging industry in 2016 exceeded the 1.9 trillion mark. In 2017, the packaging industry continued to upgrade and move towards the "two trillion" club. Behind the rapid growth of China's packaging industry is the rapid economic and social development and the enrichment of people's living standards. Among them, as a part of the packaging industry, pharmaceutical packaging has made an important contribution to the total output value. Now, 2018 has arrived. This year is known as the second year of the packaging industry since the reform and opening up, which will have a certain impact on the pharmaceutical packaging and other industries. So, in the current context, how will China's pharmaceutical packaging industry move forward?

Environmental protection efforts continue to increase industry reshuffle kicked off

In recent years, China's environmental protection has been intensified, which means that for the field of pharmaceutical packaging, it means internal reform of the industry. Industry experts said that the national environmental protection efforts will continue to increase in 2018, and the industry reshuffle will begin. This also means that small packaging companies with low production technology and weak packaging quality will be eliminated, and leading packaging companies with a complete and efficient supply chain will have the advantage and divide the market into "blue oceans".

Demand continues to increase packaging technology content to be increased

Pharmaceutical packaging equipment refers to the equipment that completes all or part of the pharmaceutical packaging process. In addition, it also includes auxiliary equipment such as stamping and metering. In the packaging process of pharmaceuticals, it includes the main packaging processes such as filling, wrapping, and sealing, as well as related before and after. Procedures, such as cleaning, stacking, and disassembly.

Step up the layout of smart packaging to hunt for two trillion markets

In addition, China's pharmaceutical packaging industry still has problems such as weak industry independent innovation capabilities, low level of automation, informationization and intelligence in the packaging manufacturing process. Under the background of consumption upgrade, the domestic demand for high-end packaging will steadily increase, and packaging leaders with high automation and intelligent qualifications will continue to benefit.

Insiders said that in 2018, affected by policies, packaging production will bid farewell to the single-factory model, prompting low-end factories to enter the group's combined factories, 2.5 factories, smart factories, and unmanned factories, and are committed to creating efficient, unmanned, intelligent super Scale-shared chemical plant.
