The can has the following advantages as a package: First, it has excellent barrier properties. It has good barrier properties against light, gas and water, and its properties such as moisture resistance and aroma retention greatly exceed other types of packaging materials such as plastics and paper. It can effectively protect the contents for a long time and is suitable for multiple requirements of packaging. Second, it has excellent mechanical properties, high metal strength, excellent mechanical properties, and is better than other packaging materials in terms of high temperature resistance, humidity resistance, pressure resistance, insect resistance and resistance to harmful substances. Third, it is not easy to break, easy to carry, and adapt to the fast-paced life of modern society. Fourth, the surface decoration is good, which can improve the beauty and grade of the packaged objects, stimulate consumption and promote sales. Fifth, it can be recycled to the furnace for recycling. Therefore, cans are widely used in packaging services in food, canning, beverage and other industries. On the other hand, because the cost of cans is slightly higher than that of glass bottles and PET plastic bottles, it is less popular in economically underdeveloped areas. Generally, with the development of the economy and the improvement of people's living standards, the utilization rate will be greatly increased. increase.
From the perspective of per capita consumption, the Chinese can packaging market has great potential. More than 400 billion cans are produced in the world each year. China's cans consume about 24 cans per capita, while the United States consumes about 460 cans per capita. From the analysis of per capita consumption, there is still much room for development in China.
Cans packaging has a huge market space, and naturally requires high-quality beverages and easy-to-cap high-speed production equipment to match. The production of beverages and easy-to-open lids has been in the domestic market since the 1980s. The high-speed production equipment for beverages and lids used by the production enterprises has been dependent on imports from European and American countries.
In the international market, the production of beverages and easy-to-open lids in developed countries such as Europe, America and Japan is relatively stable. The demand for equipment is mainly the replacement of equipment, and the demand for new equipment will not have a big breakthrough. However, in the field of full-opening and easy-opening of food, the market prospect of high-speed production equipment is still very promising.
In emerging economies and regions, such as Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and South America, due to the rapid growth of macroeconomics, the per capita consumption capacity, regardless of beverages or food can be easily developed, is in a high-speed development stage, beverage easy to pull high-speed production equipment The market is vast.
