The Problems in the Development of Kraft Paper Packaging Industry in China

[China Packaging Network News] Although China's packaging kraft paper industry is sold at home and abroad, it has also received praise from many packaging companies. However, compared with the international level, there are still many deficiencies. Then what needs to change the situation in the packaging kraft industry in China?


One: excess capacity, small business size


According to statistics, at present, there are about 2,000 packaging kraft paper companies in China, and there are only about 80 paper-making kraft paper companies with a level of more than 1 million tons. However, most of the companies are still small workshops. In particular, papermaking equipment is still far behind compared with developed countries.


2: Reliance on foreign pulp too much, lack of homemade commercial pulp


China's paper pulp for packaging kraft papers mainly relies on imports from abroad, and is greatly affected by external influences. According to the latest statistics from the US Pulp Bureau this year, 80% of US pulp is exported to China. At present, there are less than one-third of the kraft paper manufacturers that can produce their own pulp in China.


III: After the packaging kraft paper industry clusters have passed, causing the packaging kraft paper industry to enter the era of meager profits


China's packaging kraft paper manufacturers are mainly concentrated in the Pearl River Delta and the Yangtze River Delta. Industrial clusters are too high, large and medium-sized enterprises are scattered, and the entire industry chain is not connected properly, resulting in low profit for the entire packaging kraft paper industry.
