With the gradual implementation of the "Prohibition of foreign garbage into the country to promote the implementation of the reform of solid waste import management plan," foreign trash ban on immigration into the final stage.For the plastics industry, the opportunities and challenges co-exist, the industry believes that the future development of waste plastics may Four major trends show.
Foreign garbage countless entry countdown plastic industry opportunities and challenges co-exist
From the July 27, 2017 release of the "prohibit the import of foreign rubbish solid waste import management system reform implementation plan" over the past three months.
With the gradual implementation of the program, foreign garbage imports also entered the final stage
In the past decades of reform and opening up, China has been the world's e-waste processing center.According to statistics of the Customs, average annual consumption of waste plastics from developed countries such as Europe and the United States exceeds 7 million tons.
Waste plastics imports through the development of decades of development formed a complete industrial chain, has been perfectly integrated into the domestic supply chain of plastics, with the implementation of the program is bound to break the domestic supply and demand in a short period of time, it will be the original overall Rising plastic prices pushed up further.
Plastic is the basic raw material for the manufacturing industry. Although the manufacturing industry has seen an already seemingly cold wintry this year, it will continue to face a 2018 which is even colder.
But the challenge is always with the opportunity.
Demand will not change due to government decrees.China, while no longer importing waste plastics, still needs the domestic market, which will be a huge opportunity for manufacturing industry in 2018. For the future development of waste plastics, personally think there will be the following trends:
Into foreign markets
With China's exit, Southeast Asia is bound to take the plate.For those who have a mature technology programs in the domestic low-end manufacturers, to enter the foreign markets may be a good choice.
Develop high-end plastic recycling technology
With the increasingly sharp environmental issues, low-end manufacturing will never be the ultimate way out, so high-end plastic recycling technology can not only fill the market, but also get government support.
Emerging new composite materials market
With the intervention of the domestic environmental protection departments, the industry standard of the future plastic market will be higher and higher, the old platform can no longer meet the market demand, and the emerging composite materials market may directly break through the existing industry bottlenecks.
Imported plastic particles
Compared with research and development of new technical materials, the import of plastic particles is the easiest and brutal way to solve the problem temporarily. Therefore, import of plastic particles will also be an opportunity in the market demand situation.
