Japan to reduce packaging of a typical case of
       A few days ago, Shanghai Bao Xie Baoxie Japan hosted the "packaging and environmental protection," the delegation of the Sino-Japanese packaging expert on packaging and packaging waste, the environment and other issues to carry out the exchange, especially on social and economic development problems in today's issue of deep-seated The seminar discussions. At the meeting of experts to Japan in Shanghai with their counterparts in the reduction of packaging products, the advanced experience of a number of cases we should learn from the study. Stones from other hills, we can learn, is special:

First, Sony's new electronics package

       Based on Sony's "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Replace" four principles to advance the company's product packaging. They not only follow the "reduce, reuse, recycling," circular economy "3R" principles, but also the use of alternative (replace), to find ways to improve the product packaging. We look at a few examples. The company in 1998 for large models of TV's foam materials (EPS) buffer packaging material to improve the use of small 8-EPS packaging materials division to buffer earthquake, a decrease of 40% EPS use; the use of some products in front of EPS materials, corrugated cardboard behind the use of materials, and special outer shape of corrugated cardboard boxes in order to save resources; other small models of television sets using molded pulp material to replace the original material EPS.

Second, Dai Nippon Printing Co., Ltd. The new packaging

      The packaging enterprises implement the four principles of environmental awareness, that is, reduction of packaging materials, packaging used to reduce the volume, the use of recycling and reduce environmental pollution.

(1) reduction of packaging materials used in principle: reduce the thickness of the containers, films, low-rise cuts, change the packaging materials and other methods;

(2) use the principle of reducing the volume of packaging used: groove box, cardboard boxes indentation on the surface, change the packaging materials and so on, see product cases, the use of beverage bottles after the volume has become very small, easy recovery;

(3) the use of the principle of recycling: such as the use of easy separation of paper containers, plastic cartons put to use after the paper, plastic separation, waste reduction, to deal with aspects that; also can be easily separated from a thermoplastic molding Containers.

(4) to reduce environmental pollution: the enterprise in product packaging materials, in areas such as technology improvements and reduce production of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and protecting the environment.

Third, the Japanese can manufacturing of packaging products Co., Ltd.

       Can the development of the Japanese plastic composite metal cans TULC (Toyo Ultimate Can) cans to PET and synthesis of 2 tin cans, used mainly targeted at the beverage cans. This compound can both save and easy-to-recycle materials, in the process of making low-power, low consumption, environmental-friendly products. Can Toyo also an ultra-light-level R & D and production of glass bottles. Using materials such as the production of 187 ml of Niunai Ping thickness of only 1.63 mm, 89 g weight, general Niunai Ping 2.26 mm thick and weighing 130 grams, lighter than 40% of the bottles can be repeatedly used 40 times more than . The company also produces non-wood fibers in paper cups and biodegradable paper-plastic cup. Can Japanese in order to make plastic packaging barrels, bottles used in the deal to reduce the size of the plastic barrels in the design of the ring a few folds, can be easily discarded when folded to reduce the size, type of plastic (bottles) from as many as the type of 500 ml to 10 liters capacity, and other varieties.

       From more than a few Japanese companies packaging products in the actual case we can clearly see Japanese counterparts in the reduction of packaging has done a great deal of fruitful research and development. We must vigorously promote the packaging industry as a whole strategy of sustainable development of green packaging, packaging requirements for the design, manufacture, use and should be dealt with in line with the low consumption, reduction, less pollution, such as ecological and environmental protection requirements
