Forecast Analysis of the Development Prospect of British Packaging Industry in 2012

[ppzhan summary] According to the data of relevant research companies, the average annual compound growth rate of the British packaging industry reached 4.07% between 2006 and 2010, and its annual compound growth rate is expected to reach between 2011 and 2015. 3.16%, the total industrial output value exceeds 20 billion US dollars. In fact, the impact of the global economic crisis on the UK is very large. The gross domestic product (GDP) of the UK has shrunk by 4.9% in 2009, and the level of employment and consumption is not optimistic. Although the demand for packaging in the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries continues to grow, the UK packaging industry will still face serious challenges in the coming years due to the limits of domestic consumption.

Exports drive the development of the packaging machinery industry In the past few years, the UK packaging machinery industry has achieved a compound annual growth rate of 6.61%. In 2010 alone, its output value exceeded 400 million US dollars. And in the next few years, it will still maintain such a strong growth momentum. As the demand for food and beverage products continues to grow in the Gulf countries and other developing countries, the UK packaging machinery manufacturing industry will also usher in a new export peak.

In addition to strong export demand, the UK's domestic market demand for packaging machinery will also increase in the next few years. Consumers hope to use multi-functional environmentally friendly packaging, which requires the packaging machinery industry to develop and produce specialized products that meet the various packaging needs of users.

Food and manufacturing industries drive growth From now until 2015, the food, beverage and manufacturing industries will be the main growth drivers for the UK packaging industry. Of all the packaging consumed in the UK, the food and beverage industry accounts for 70%, the pharmaceutical industry accounts for 10%, and personal care products account for around 6%. Therefore, the development of these industries will have a positive impact on the packaging industry. Among them, the growth of the food and beverage industry is stable, and its compound annual growth rate will reach 6.5% in the next few years.

In addition, the pharmaceutical industry's contribution to the packaging industry will be very large in the next few years. With the aging of the population, the advancement of the pharmaceutical industry and the awareness of public health, the demand for medicines in British society will gradually increase. As a result, the packaging industry, which provides blister, vial and carton packs for these drugs, will also benefit.

Lightweight environmentally friendly packaging will become mainstream In recent years, the UK packaging industry has begun to move closer to more environmentally friendly packaging solutions. Many plastic packaging companies have begun to replace petroleum-based thermoplastics with degradable materials that are used as raw materials, and hope to reduce the weight of packaging products and improve their environmental performance. The packaging industry is also trying to replace traditional hard plastics with thinner plastics to reduce the amount of plastic used in the UK by around 1900 tons per year. This trend will continue in the coming years as consumer demand for environmentally friendly packaging that consumes less energy and produces less waste grows.

Not only are consumers demanding environmentally friendly packaging, but the British government has also introduced a series of regulations to encourage people to produce and use environmentally friendly packaging. The UK Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs has issued a directive to reduce the environmental impact of packaging, requiring the UK to recycle 55% of packaging materials annually and regenerate 60% of packaging materials. As of 2008, the UK has overfulfilled its mission, and their packaging material recovery and recycling rates have reached 60% and 65%, respectively. Now, the UK Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs has set a new goal of increasing the recycling rate of all packaging materials to 80% by 2020.
