The hottest metal packaging industry in China has

The potential of China's metal packaging industry is limitless

metal packaging is an important part of China's packaging industry, and its output value accounts for about 10% of the total output value of China's packaging industry, mainly providing packaging services for food, cans, beverages, fats, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and other industries. Metal containers flourished from the late 1980s to the mid-1990s. In recent years, with the development of technology and the strengthening of industry management, the market order has been further improved, and will gradually enter a stable and orderly period of benign development

metal packaging has the characteristics of capital intensive, technology intensive, domestic demand oriented, export-oriented, high product substitution, large seasonal changes in the market, and high market concentration. Metal packaging products can be divided into iron products (cans, boxes), cans (including aluminum two-piece cans, steel two-piece cans, tinplate three piece cans), aerosol cans (tinplate made of exquisite pharmaceutical cans, pesticide cans, cosmetics cans, etc.), food cans (cans, liquids to ensure the stability and accuracy of test results. Or solid food cans, etc.) and all kinds of bottle caps (crown cap, unscrew cap, aluminum anti-theft cap). There are also chemical barrels made of 1-18 liters of sheet metal and 20-200 liters of steel barrels made of cold rolled sheet and zinc sheet

at present, the equipment of China's metal container manufacturing industry has strong strength. There are 26 production lines for two-piece cans, with an annual production capacity of more than 12 billion (the current market demand is about 7 billion). Tinplate three piece can manufacturing equipment has more than 500 imported and domestic full-automatic resistance welding machines of various models, and its products supply about 4billion in the beverage industry and about 3.8 billion in the food canning industry a year. The annual output of aerosol cans can reach 600million. There are more than 200 crown cap production lines in China, and more than 90% of the equipment is imported from abroad, with an annual market demand of 35billion. The annual processing capacity of steel barrels is about 40 ~ 50 million. Iron printing equipment has more than 400 production lines across the country. Imported equipment and domestic equipment print more than 15 billion times a year according to the evaluation. The annual demand for tinplate in the whole industry is about 1.4 million tons. With the improvement of the production capacity of domestic tinplate, the import of tinplate will be gradually reduced, and it will soon be self-sufficient, but some high-end products still need to be imported in a small amount

the tinplate three piece can manufacturing equipment has more than 500 imported and domestic full-automatic or semi-automatic production lines of various models. Its products supply about 4billion in the beverage industry and about 3.8 billion in the food can industry a year. The annual production capacity of aerosol cans reaches 600million. There are nearly 300 crown cap production lines in China, more than 90% of the equipment is imported from abroad, and the annual market demand is 40billion. The annual processing capacity of steel barrels is about 40 ~ 50 million. Iron printing equipment has more than 500 production lines across the country, with half imported equipment and half domestic equipment, printing more than 16 billion times a year

the largest user of metal packaging in China is the food industry, followed by chemical products. In addition, cosmetics and drugs also account for a certain proportion. With the continuous development of China's national economy and the continuous growth of people's consumption, the rapid development of upstream related industries will push the metal packaging industry out of the trough

at present, the beverage industry is developing rapidly. Although plastic bottles, glass bottles, composite paper bags and other packaging occupy a certain share, two-piece cans and three piece cans still occupy an advantage. For example, the beer market share of metal cans is growing. The demand for metal barrels and cans in oil and chemical industry, petroleum products, medicine, cosmetics and other industries will grow exponentially. In 2001, the total output of metal packaging products reached 2.05 million tons (including hot and cold rolled plates), which is expected to reach 2.88 million tons by 2005. At the beginning of the new century, China has joined the WTO. The metal packaging industry should improve its industrialization level, improve its comprehensive strength, grasp the opportunity of the western development, and jointly create a broad space for benign development

in terms of per capita consumption, the domestic metal packaging market still has great potential. At present, about 410billion metal cans are produced in the world every year. Among them, there are about 320billion beverage cans, 75billion food cans and 10billion spray cans; The annual sales of beverage cans and food cans in Europe are 33billion and 27billion respectively; The growth rates of the sales of beverage cans and food cans in Asia in the past 10 years are: 250% for two pieces of beverage cans, 63% for three pieces of beverage cans and 71% for food cans respectively; The annual consumption of beverage cans in China is 11billion cans (7billion two-piece cans and 4billion three-piece cans), and the per capita consumption is less than 8 cans, while the annual consumption in Japan is 18billion cans and that in South Korea is 3.2 billion cans

if China's annual per capita consumption increases to 10 cans, of course, the right manufacturer should be selected. Jinan new era Gold Testing Instrument Co., Ltd. requires a supply capacity of 13billion cans every year; In addition, the consumption level of canned food in China is low, with an annual per capita consumption of less than 1.5 kg. The annual per capita consumption level of canned food in Europe is 50 kg, and the annual per capita consumption level of Japanese is 23 kg. At present, the domestic metal packaging market shows a trend of supply exceeding demand, but from the analysis of per capita consumption, there is still much room for development
