Problems and measures of the hottest tobacco packa

Problems and measures of China's tobacco packaging industry

I) current situation and problems of China's tobacco packaging industry

China is the largest cigarette market in the world. In order to share the market share as much as possible, each cigarette factory in China shows its magic power and constantly brings forth the new. Therefore, China's tobacco packaging market has witnessed an unprecedented prosperity. The packaging of some products has even far exceeded the packaging level of some famous international brands, especially the hard packaging of cigarettes, which has created the historical precedent of tobacco packaging in the world. Gold, silver and frosted packaging, as well as the most cutting-edge technologies in the world packaging industry (such as hot stamping, holographic anti-counterfeiting, etc.) have all appeared on the hard packaging of cigarettes in China

since the reform and opening up, China's tobacco packaging technology has achieved rapid development. Cigarette box packaging has been in the forefront of national packaging from coated paper soft box packaging to ordinary white cardboard, glass cardboard and aluminum foil gold and silver cardboard hard box packaging, and then to pet mirror composite cardboard hard box packaging, and the introduction of high-end sanding technology. Now, the domestic tobacco industry has launched laser rainbow paperboard (including BOPP laser rainbow paperboard and pet laser rainbow paperboard) hard wrapped cigarette packs, which gives people a refreshing feeling and has led the tobacco industry to adopt laser rainbow paperboard The market is gradually expanding due to the upsurge of poor jaw quality. China's tobacco packaging has reached a new level in material selection: from the partial use of laser materials for decoration (such as laser anodized hot stamping) to the overall and full page combination of laser materials and printing

although China's tobacco packaging industry has made a lot of investment and improvement, there are still the following problems:

1 There is still a huge gap in the overall technical level compared with foreign countries

2. The proportion of hard flip cigarette packs only accounts for 50%, and the process of high-grade is slow

3. Excess production capacity, idle equipment, and excessive corporate debt

4. The cigarette packaging industry relies too much on the tobacco industry

in terms of the current fashionable laser rainbow cardboard hard box packaging in the domestic tobacco industry, BOPP laser rainbow cardboard is mainly provided by Taiwan yongtoyota company, and pet laser rainbow cardboard is mainly provided by Taiwan guangqun company. The tobacco industry hopes that domestic packaging enterprises will pay close attention to research and development, form production capacity as soon as possible, develop and grow in competition, and meet the needs of the tobacco packaging industry

(II) the requirements and expectations of China's tobacco industry for the packaging industry

after China's accession to the WTO, although foreign cigarettes will not be enough to change China's existing tobacco pattern within 3 to 5 years, these years are precisely an important period for the reshuffle of China's tobacco market and the relocation of the industry. The fierce competition between domestic cigarettes and foreign cigarettes for the retail terminal market has also begun. The tobacco industry also puts forward higher requirements for tobacco packaging. The use of new materials, new equipment, new processes and design, and anti-counterfeiting means is more practical, which is different from the packaging of other products. The particularity of the production of tobacco packaging industry includes:

1 large batch, long version, long line, high speed

2. Protect the color, flavor and taste of tobacco products

3. The effect of cigarette label surface decoration is very high

4. Anti counterfeiting requirements

5. Environmental protection requirements

the difference between general tobacco packaging and high-quality tobacco packaging usually lies in:

1 Whether the package is perfect, firm and compression resistant

2. Whether the boundary is clear and not easy to distort

3. Whether the box cover is well covered to ensure that the inner frame will not be exposed

4. Whether the joints are straight and properly connected

5. Whether the printing style matches the whole structure

6. Whether all colors are coordinated

7. Whether there are mistakes, spots, mottled spots or filler lines on the printing

few models below 10kN. Before, there was no tobacco packaging in the world that could match the packaging design of brand cigarettes in Asia, especially China. However, if there was a lack of high-quality packaging materials, great design would also be wasted. Therefore, the packaging materials of tobacco are also very important

(III) the development opportunity of China's tobacco packaging industry

after China's entry into the WTO, China's tobacco packaging products will further develop towards high-quality and international large sample measurement errors, the competition in the tobacco packaging industry will become more intense, and the use of new materials, new equipment, new processes and design, and anti-counterfeiting means will become more practical, At the same time, the comprehensive strength of tobacco packaging enterprises will become a key factor for tobacco enterprises to consider when choosing suppliers. The tobacco industry will undergo a reshuffle after China's entry into WTO, which will certainly cause a new round of fierce competition among tobacco packaging suppliers

1) changes in the marketing mode of tobacco packaging products

with the adjustment of China's tobacco industrial structure, the market concentration is greatly improved, the marketing channels of tobacco packaging enterprises are relatively reduced, the market public relations objectives are more centralized, and the single market share is increased. Tobacco packaging enterprises can "concentrate their firepower" to win more orders

2) tobacco packaging products tend to be high-grade, high-tech, and have higher and higher requirements for quality. After the implementation of the new tobacco tax system in 2001, low-grade cigarettes are almost unprofitable, and the competition in the tobacco industry gradually turns to medium and high-grade cigarettes. This trend will become more obvious with the continuous reduction of the cost of domestic medium and high-grade cigarettes and the entry of foreign cigarettes after China's entry into the WTO. The tobacco industry has higher and higher requirements for the quality of packaging products, and pays more attention to new packaging materials, new processes and new technologies. Packaging enterprises are required to increase the scientific and technological content of products while strictly ensuring the product quality, and improve the product grade, so as to meet the needs of fierce competition among major tobacco brands

3) the design style of tobacco packaging products will tend to internationalization

after China's entry into WTO, foreign tobacco will compete with Chinese tobacco enterprises in the same market, forcing Chinese tobacco enterprises to accelerate the process of internationalization and go abroad as soon as possible. This will certainly require higher quality, firmer, cleaner and more innovative tobacco packaging products, and the design style will also be more international. When exporting, Chinese tobacco manufacturers should consider two major non key points in packaging at normal temperature, namely, the purity and cleanness of packaging. In particular, the European and North American markets are very sensitive to the purity and cleanliness of food and tobacco packaging, and tobacco enterprises will pay more attention
