China's food packaging machinery industry development status

The statistical data of China Machinery Industry Federation reflects the problems in China's food processing and packaging machinery industry. In terms of operating efficiency, the profit rate of the entire machinery industry in the first half of the year increased by 86.13% year-on-year, of which, the food processing and packaging machinery industry was the lowest, only increasing to 26%. There are nearly 6,000 food and packaging machinery manufacturers across the country, but about 2,000 of them are not stable enough. Nearly 15% of companies convert or close down each year, and about the same number of new companies enter the industry. These data on the one hand illustrate the attractiveness and vitality of the industry, and everyone's optimism about its prospects. On the other hand, it also shows how fierce competition in this industry is.

What kind of development status of China's food packaging machinery industry is in the end, what is the bottleneck that restricts the development of the industry, and how can it overcome the bottleneck and achieve significant development?

First, competing with peers, fierce price competition China's food packaging machinery industry, most of the SMEs rely on prices to win. The overall starting point of the industry was originally low, and there were a number of companies in a region that were producing, with repeatability and low profits. As a result, many people compete for customers and "kill each other." Competition is fierce. Everyone is desperate to bargain, resulting in those customers who have absolute choice and negotiating bargaining power in the negotiations. They can choose mechanical products with relatively low prices and relatively good quality.

However, those SMEs who waited for orders did not receive profits from their customers, and did not have the funds to expand their scale and invest in technological R&D. They still had no advantage in negotiating with foreign customers, and they could only resort to price wars once again, resulting in vicious competition.

Second, the lack of technological innovation In the food packaging machinery industry, many SMEs are reluctant to introduce foreign advanced technologies, and they have no funds for high-tech research and development. Foreign technologies have patents. We cannot afford many of our prices. We have to develop our own technologies and we lack the funds and technical personnel. The technical transformation is very difficult.

In addition, there are about 1,300 varieties of packaging machinery in China, lacking high-tech, high-precision, high-quality accessory products, low product performance, poor stability and reliability, short life span, rough surface treatment, and unattractive appearance. The technology of packaging machinery in China The level as a whole is about 20 years behind the advanced countries. From the point of view of scientific research product development, it still basically remains in the test imitation stage, and its own development ability is not strong, and scientific research investment is low. The funds only account for 1% of sales, while developed countries are as high as 8 to 10%.

According to statistics, the export volume of packaging machinery in China is less than 5% of the total output value, but the import volume is roughly equivalent to the total output value. This shows that China's demand for packaging machinery gap is very large, compared with foreign products, domestic packaging machinery, the gap between the level of science and technology is still relatively large, far from meeting domestic demand.

Therefore, if China's food packaging machinery industry wants to make rapid progress, it should proceed from reality. While introducing technology, independent innovation is also essential; it must also be aligned with foreign large-scale enterprises, and technically the DPRK should be fully integrated and developed. The impact of human costs; this can produce equipment that suits the needs of the domestic market.
