Over-packaged goods no one applauded

Today, in major shopping malls and supermarkets in the capital, health products and foods that are “fattened” by the outer packaging are everywhere: most of the American ginseng tablets known as gift packs can be seen as large and light. Can be opened, only to know that only near the packaging machine 'target = _blank> some thin thin film near the transparent film, inside the plug is more than 20 times the ginseng piece of waste paper. According to the person in charge of the supermarket food department, there is a large box of black sesame paste, which contains 6 small boxes, each containing 8 small bags filled with air, and the black of these 8 small bags For sesame paste, you only need to fit two sachets. The over-packaging of drugs is not optimistic. Mr. Li, who lives in the Asian Games Village, told reporters that he recently bought a box of Suxiao Jiuxin Pills. The manufacturers changed from the past bottled to carton packaging, and added a layer of plastic film in the box. Not only that, but also a tin film on the outside of each pill. The grade of the package came up, but it was extremely inconvenient to use.

With these manufacturers to use excessive packaging as a promotional tool, with less charge, compared with small charge, there are some manufacturers use excessive packaging to fake, but also makes the majority of consumers hate. In December 2000, the National Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision showed the results of 45 types of fortified milk powder quality inspections in 45 companies in 11 cities. Although some of the products were exquisitely packaged, the quality was not optimistic. There were 36 types of products that were cut corners and were not added. Without nutritional supplements, vitamins and trace elements are low, and many indicators are below the standard minimum of half or no added vitamins and trace elements at all. They do not reach primary and secondary school students, the elderly, and some lack nutrition. The special population strengthens the purpose of nutrition. There are six kinds of products with unsatisfactory hygienic indicators, and the net product content of four companies cannot meet the net content of 300-500g in the "Quality Packaging Measurement Supervision Regulations" of the State Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision, and the negative deviation must not exceed 3%. % of the request. Among them, the Yili brand Yili milk powder produced by Inner Mongolia Ulanchabuth Dairy Factory had a net error of -6.8%. To account for 400 grams per bag, each bag of powdered milk is given to consumers by 27.2 grams, according to the product sales price of 5.4 yuan per bag, each bag is deducted from consumers by 0.37 yuan. Calculating the company's annual output of 500 tons, the company will give consumers less milk powder a year, equivalent to more than 460,000 yuan in profits.

The phenomenon of excessive packaging of goods has caused great concern among people from all walks of life. At the Fourth Session of the Ninth CPPCC National Committee, members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) responded extremely strongly and made a special proposal No. 3263 on the issue of excessive packaging of goods.

For this reason, this reporter interviewed the Deputy Secretary-General of the China Packaging Technology Association of the State Economic and Trade Commission and the senior engineer Che Xiangfu. According to him, the excessive packaging problem involved in the proposal of No. 3263 of the CPPCC is a matter within the scope of green packaging. One of the important signs in the meaning of “green packaging” is that the material used is the most provincial, that is, it is reduced. The developed countries in the world require packaging to use green packaging as much as possible. The important connotation of green packaging is the “3R+1D” principle, which is REDUCE reduction, REUSE reuse, RECYCLE recycling and DEGRADALE degradability.

According to Deputy Secretary-General Che Xiangfu, at present, there has been such excessive packaging in the country, and the situation has become more and more serious. If this situation is not stopped in time, not only is a lot of resources wasted, but also a lot of packaging waste has been generated. Urban waste increases processing costs, resulting in great waste of effective resources.

On the issue of excessive packaging of goods, Lu Yingfang, senior engineer of the Urban Construction Management Division of the Ministry of Construction, told reporters that over-packaging of goods has caused ordinary people to spend more money and the second is to waste resources. Overpacking increases production costs and causes environmental pollution. Third, wastes that are overpacked are rarely reusable, and disposal costs are also high.

The reporter learned from relevant parties that excessive packaging of goods has attracted the attention of the relevant state departments. In order to prevent the spread of excessive packaging activities, the State Economic and Trade Commission is working to formulate a national green packaging industry development plan. It is reported that the draft plan has been finalized and is in the process of validation. Relevant experts also pointed out that China's packaging regulations and green packaging development management system must be established in the planning process, so that the packaging industry in China has laws and can be effectively managed.
