Aluminium and the lives of ordinary people

In recent years, with the change of Chinese dining habits, beer consumption has soared.

In 2005, the national beer output was 30.62 million tons, ranking first in the world for many consecutive years. The packaging aluminum foil also increased rapidly, reaching the annual consumption of aluminum foil more than 10 thousand tons, and there is still a large incremental space.

Pet food packaging: In recent years, pet food packaging products made of aluminum foil have developed rapidly in the European and American markets. At present, it is still a blank market to be developed in China, with great potential for application and consumption.

In addition, with the development of new packaging technology, new packaging methods such as selective aluminum foil packaging, antifreeze aluminum foil packaging, anticondensation aluminum foil packaging, aseptic packaging, tetra Pak will open a series of new incremental market space for the application of aluminum foil in the packaging field.

From the perspective of the development prospect of China's packaging industry, the country has put forward the development plan of agricultural industrialization in the field of food, and food processing is listed as a priority development field. It is expected that the output value of food packaging will increase by more than 12% annually in the future.

Dairy products and beverages have become the most promising industries, and various soft packaging varieties appear in the market.

At present, the annual output value of China's pharmaceutical packaging industry is 15 billion yuan, which can only meet 80% of the packaging needs of domestic pharmaceutical enterprises. It is expected that the pharmaceutical packaging industry will realize rapid development during the eleventh Five-Year Plan period.

In the daily chemical industry, the daily chemical products are entering the market boom period, the development potential is huge, in the packaging industry is one of the fastest new and developing markets.

It can be seen that the future growth space of China's aluminum foil demand is mainly in the packaging of aluminum foil to support a large capacity of the market.

Industry experts predict that by the end of the eleventh Five-Year Plan, the annual demand for aluminum foil used in packaging in China will reach about 250,000 tons, which will be 1.3 times the current consumption of aluminum foil used in packaging.

In the next few years, the growth rate of aluminum foil used in packaging will greatly exceed that of China's air conditioning, decoration and cable applications.
