Reviewing the reform and opening up, the metal container Packaging industry has made great progress. It has now included a metal container packaging industry system in which tin cans, sealed cans, steel drums and various bottle caps are integrated. It is one of the important categories of the national packaging industry for 20 years. After a period of turbulence, it developed from scratch, from small to large, and from weak to strong. The products are high-grade packaging, mainly for food, canned foods, beverages, oils, and chemicals. , pharmaceuticals, culture, education and cosmetics and other related industries provide product packaging services. As the Metal Packaging is beautifully printed and finely manufactured, it has a long shelf life and is easy to carry. It is particularly suitable for travel, field operations, and the needs of the battlefield, and is well received by consumers.
In the early 1950s, there were only a few semi-mechanized factories in major cities in Beijing, Tianjin, and Guangzhou. It started in the mid-60s and developed rapidly in the 1970s. Really enter the fast lane, or after the reform and opening up. In particular, the "Eighth Five-Year Plan" period is the heyday of the development of metal packaging.
Before the reform and opening up, there were only 168 factories across the country in 1979. So far it has reached about 1,500, which is an increase of 8 times before the establishment of the Association. The main reasons for the rapid development are as follows: First, the increase in output of large-scale development products in related industries, exports The volume has continued to grow. Second, foreign investors are very interested in China's huge market. They flock to come to China for cooperation and set up factories. Third, the development of township enterprises and the increase of private enterprises. So far, foreign-funded enterprises have built up a large number of companies, large investments, a high starting point, and advanced equipment technologies, which have expanded the scale of the industry.
The main products have forecasted that the total output could reach 1.7 million tons in 2000, including the main products: 6.5 billion aluminum two-piece cans, three tin cans, including 7 billion drinks and cans, and 700 million spray cans. There are only 50 billion bottles, various types of bottle caps and easy-pull diseases, about 40 million 20-200-liter steel drums, and more than 5 billion barrels of other solid products.
The proportion of economic properties of metal container manufacturing enterprises including special equipment and raw material suppliers is 30% for state-owned enterprises, 28% for foreign-funded enterprises, 32% for collective enterprises, 3% for wholly foreign-owned enterprises, and 7% for private enterprises. There are about 60 large-scale enterprise groups whose total assets are more than 100 million yuan, or more than 1 billion, or even several billion yuan, in which the total assets are calculated in Renminbi. Among them, there are representative ones, such as Futerpol Group and Fujian Union Construction Group. , Sanshui Jianli Baofu Container Co., Ltd., Hangzhou Zhongliang Meite Company, Wuxi Huapeng Jiaduobao Bottle Cap Company, Haikou Coconut Projection Tank Company, Shanghai Ziquan Packaging Company, Tianjin Wanhua Stock Company, Shandong Li Peng Packaging Co., Ltd. , Beijing Ao Ruijin Xinmei Can Making Co., Ltd., Shanghai Meilin Zheng Guanghe Group, India Iron Can Making Co., Ltd., Beijing Crown Can Making Co., Ltd., and Sinopec Sales Company-owned steel barrel factory. Equipment manufacturing and supply of raw and auxiliary materials for large companies such as: Shanghai Baosteel Tinplate factory, Wugang tinplate factory, Taiwan unified tinplate company, Guangdong Zhongyue tinplate company, Guangzhou ICI coating company, Suzhou PPG packaging coating company, the United States Grace ( China) sealant factory and so on.
The main problems that currently exist are:
1. The metal container packaging industry introduced a large number of advanced equipment during the 10 years from 1986 to 1996. For example, two cans were increased from 13 original automatic production lines to 26, and their speed was between 1000 and 1800 per minute. The capacity of the introduction of nearly 200 automatic production lines in the film cans is 800-1200 per minute for equipment, and the rest is for medium and low speeds; the Crown covers the introduction of about 150 advanced stamping equipment with a speed of 110,000 per hour and 140,000 per hour respectively. 270,000, only these three items can be seen as normal. Therefore, they appealed to the competent authorities to strengthen macro-control. Now the operating rate of most factories is about 50%, and there is still great potential. This is the consequence of blindly launching macroeconomic dislocation.
2. Tinplate has been relying on imports for more than 40 years. Only 50,000 tons of Wuhan Iron & Steel and 70,000 tons of Guangdong Zhongyue Tinplate Iron & Steel Co., Ltd. are produced in China. The state pays a lot of foreign exchange imports. In 1996, the Ministry of Metallurgy made a decision on the production of domestically produced tinplate on the agenda: Shanghai Baosteel launched 400,000 tons, Wuhan Iron and Steel increased its output to 150,000 tons, and another 120000 tons of Zhongyue Tinplate Co. Wuxi unified 150,000 tons of tinplate and 150,000 tons of Wuzhou unified tinplate company. In addition, 8 tinplate factories in Guangzhou Pacific, Haikou Haiyu, Fuzhou Zhongri, Shanghai Yichang and Shenyang Zhongyi have been put into operation. The total output is expected to reach 1.6 million tons by 2005. At present, the annual demand for tinplate in China is about 80-100 million tons, and the situation of oversupply is again under control and should be controlled.
3. Due to the oversupply of the market, various companies have caused chaos in the market in order to seize the market, cut prices each other, and disorderly competition. Due to the complex specifications of metal packaging products, we preferred to use the crown cap as a pilot point, and it was difficult to reach a consensus by convening several leading companies to feel the price limit difficult. In the future, we will continue to work hard to gradually carry out this work.
New Century Development Ideas:
1. There should be a sense of urgency to enter the WTO. Competition in the domestic and foreign markets will become more intense in the future. The top priority is to accelerate the establishment of domestic brand names and promote the organization of leading groups led by leading companies. Take joint and loose-type combination methods or strong cooperation to enhance competitive strength.
2. It is to consolidate existing brand names. Such as: the existing two-piece cans, three-piece cans, spray cans. The vast majority of product quality has caught up with the international level of similar products. For example, the quality of the metal printing of Hangzhou Zhongliang Meitei is a leading position in the printed iron industry. There are also products of the above large enterprises, some of which are close to the brand level. In the future, the tree brand strategy will continue to be promoted and ISO international certification will be promoted as soon as possible on the basis of reaching the national standard in order to strengthen its competitiveness in the international arena.
3. At present, there is fierce competition among domestic and foreign talents. Without high-quality talent, it is difficult to improve product quality and scientific enterprise management. Therefore, it is necessary to speed up the introduction of talented people and at the same time adopt short-term training and higher education in combination with lower-quality employees to improve the overall quality of the industry.
Although China's metal packaging products have improved in terms of product quality, some products have reached the level of similar international products; but it depends on technology and raw and auxiliary materials, and our technological level and raw and auxiliary materials still have a gap compared with advanced countries. Should improve product quality as soon as possible.
Since the 1990s, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States, and France have all successfully developed “copper iron” that can completely replace tinplate. This is an epoch-making advancement. Nowadays, developed countries have adopted ultra-thin steel sheets with a thickness of 0.07-0.12 mm. . The cans made of aluminum alloy plates can be heated in a microwave oven. Taiwan in China is testing cans that can be directly heated by fire, and the outer printed patterns and inner coating films do not fall off.
Advanced countries are more advanced than our country in terms of raw and auxiliary materials. After joining the WTO, it is inevitable that we must import high-quality raw materials. We must keep up, get rid of imports or import less, we must accelerate the development of high-quality materials and strengthen our competitiveness. The market potential of our country is very large. The average annual capacity of cans in China is less than 8 cans, while the average annual per capita in the United States has reached 380 cans. Metal cans have been widely used in foreign countries. China's metal cans have great development prospects. With the rapid economic growth in China, the people’s living standards have improved, and metal packaging has increased. The industry will come out of the trough and usher in the Ascendant. Our industry will surely thrive.
