On the Market Development of Honeycomb Paperboard

Honeycomb paperboard is welcomed by the market for its characteristics of light weight, low cost, high strength and recyclability, especially in developed countries and regions such as the Netherlands, the United States, and Japan. Has become a new type of green packaging that saves resources and protects the environment.
As an industry, honeycomb has more than 50 years of history abroad. Although China has only 10 years of development time, we have worked hard to develop a generation after generation of cellular devices. However, the total is still in its infancy. China's cellular development is still a virgin land.
Honeycomb paper products involve all walks of life, especially in the field of packaging and construction. Paper-based plastic and paper-based wood have become the trend of the times and their prospects are widely viewed. In 1998, the U.S. government believed that China’s wood had a natural parasite and prohibited the import of Chinese wood products. Soon, European and American countries and Canada also successively issued bans on China. The export of wood packaging in China is facing a crisis. In order to solve the obstacles to the export of wood packaging, the Chinese government has proposed emergency measures to replace wood packaging with packaging made of honeycomb paperboard. Inspired by policies, we have been advancing with difficulties. The development of the cellular business in twists and turns is like injecting a potent agent. The nation's cellular industry is getting hotter, and it is the statistics for the “National Honeycomb Board Development Strategy Seminar and Equipment Exhibition Fair 2001”. In China, more than 100 honeycomb paperboard production lines have been developed, although it is not enough to meet the needs of the domestic honeycomb paperboard market. But honeycomb has been recognized by the market and it has been accepted by the market. There are also many companies are also eager to try on the cellular line equipment. However, in the years that followed, the hundreds of honeycomb paperboard manufacturing companies had gone through hardships and twists and turns, some were difficult labor, some were small and some were discontinued. Few provinces and cities have been able to persevere. Therefore, people in the industry lament that the honeycomb is good, but the market is too vague!
Honeycomb is an emerging industry in the world and has strong vitality. However, cellular products have its particularity. On the one hand, it has the characteristics of environmental protection. On the other hand, it is a substitute product. The dispute. Of course, strong products must replace inferior products. The advantage of honeycomb products is green packaging, which is becoming a climate change. Why is it so difficult for honeycomb products to enter the market? The main reason is that it is difficult to develop ideal alternative products, and it is closely related to the downstream processing equipment. The development of the cellular business only lasted for several decades, and foreign high-tech has imposed a blockade on us. Take honeycomb trays as an example. The cellular manufacturers are almost all hand-made. Therefore, there are low efficiency, low output, low quality, and expense. More, of course, the cost is higher. The poor quality of handmade products is not welcome. Foreign pallet production lines have high technological content and are expensive and of high quality. However, they are elusive for some small domestic enterprises. The operation of foreign equipment is difficult, accessories are difficult to purchase, and maintenance is difficult. Therefore, we must design a post-processing equipment for honeycomb paperboard that is suitable for our country's situation and factory conditions in order to adapt to the needs of the Chinese market and to truly open up new channels for green packaging.
In order to process honeycomb paperboard into a marketable product, the quality of honeycomb paperboard itself cannot be ignored, including paper and composite adhesive fastness, and post-processing equipment is also very important. Not only ensure the quality of the product, but also an important part of ensuring product quality. Honeycomb paperboard can be processed into pads, trays, light walls, sanitary ware, and more. The use of honeycomb paper products has become more and more widely used. However, there is no specific domestic manufacturer of post-processing equipment for honeycomb paperboard. In the 2001 Beijing Cellular Symposium, everyone agreed that this is the bottleneck of cellular development. There is still no company that has developed post-processing equipment. The reason for this is that the research and development of post-honey processing equipment is risky and the benefit is low. The big manufacturers are reluctant to do it, and the small plants cannot do it. Therefore, the cellular market is still vague and the situation is still in a vicious circle.
Looking at the overall situation, any enterprise that successfully develops the honeycomb paperboard market must have technical personnel who are familiar with the cellular performance and are familiar with the downstream processing equipment. What kinds of cellular products are needed in the market, and companies will develop suitable products adaptively, so these enterprises The more and more products, the more and more market, the final situation is a virtuous circle.
