Accelerate Technical Innovation, Meet WTO and Discuss Market from a Package Design

The days of China’s entry into the WTO are getting closer and closer. In order to gain a firm foothold in the market, some companies in the packaging industry in China some days ago are engaged in a "strong-strong" alliance. Statistics show that of the more than 20,000 packaging companies in the country, most are small and medium-sized enterprises, while small enterprises account for the majority. "Strong - strong" alliance, the remaining small business will be the way to go? Can we use the "opportunity and challenge" of "entering the WTO" to make such enterprises reform faster and better?
If small companies do not want to be eliminated and plan to continue development, we believe that accelerating technological innovation is a good way. The fact is that the country is also very concerned about the fate of SMEs. In 1999, it issued the "Decision on Strengthening Technological Innovation, Developing High-tech, and Industrialization," and officially launched the SME Innovation Fund for Science and Technology. It was established in June this year. More than 1000 items, 9.6 billion yuan of funds were arranged, and the average support strength was about 750,000 yuan per item. The use of loan interest subsidy and unpaid subsidy support SMEs, including packaging companies, to develop faster.
The author visited a chief engineer of a packaging company. He talked about the leadership of some small and medium-sized packaging companies. He did not know that the UN held the 1992 Conference on Environment and Development and adopted the "Declaration on Rio Environment and Development" and "21st Century Agenda". The world has set off a green wave centered on protecting the environment and conserving resources. These business leaders are not sure how to follow the development of the society and follow the path of the market. He also cited practical examples of several different benefits resulting from a package design to marketing. These examples are the internal and external packagings designed by the chief factory's packaging factory for the exquisite large-scale vases exported by the ceramics factory. His first design and manufacture was in the sixties and seventies. The outer packaging material is wood plywood and the inner lining is paper debris. At that time, due to the limitations of the times and materials, the design was unreasonable and there were "bubble, loose, and empty phenomena", and the pressure was poor. Caused by the export of high rate of damage to the loan, the packing box was broken and broken. Because it involves "floating across the ocean", it also wastes a lot of ocean shipping costs. Later, the factory staff made many suggestions and changed the structural design. Filler scraps were replaced with EPS foam for cushion liners. The outer packaging was changed to a multi-layer corrugated cardboard, and the outermost wood was used to nail the board. As a result of this packaging, the overall size is reduced, the cushioning force is improved, and the amount of packaging material is reduced accordingly. Everyone is satisfied. However, it also encountered a problem: the international "banned white pollution" policy is implemented in succession. The conditions for green packaging materials recognized by various countries in the world are "3R and 1D", ie, reduction, reuse, recycling, and degradation. And stressed that packaging products should not cause pollution to the human body and the environment throughout the entire life cycle. The chief engineer found the Guangzhou Nanba Grass Fiber Company and used the "non-contaminated paper pulp to form a honeycomb paperboard" technology to design a new scheme. The package was a "have" structure. The two up and down three-dimensional convex and concave blocks were all based on the outside of the vase. Type come. The bars in the figure are all honeycomb holes. Place the vase underneath, cover it with a cover, and wrap it with a tough mesh belt. The packaging is completed. The entire program is simple and neat. The packaging is non-polluting, saving materials, labor hours, waterproof, flame retardant, and low cost. Inside and outside packaging form a scientific whole. Some problems in the export trade transport package have basically been solved.
