Recently, the goods association jointly released in Shanghai hotel Sullivan's 2021 carbon neutral sustainable development report under the background of PET bottles (hereinafter referred to as "" report").
The report is based on objective facts and detailed data, intuitively explained domestic PET bottle recycling, the layout and the current status of bottled products such as master kong enterprises as an example, at the same time show the enterprise in the sustainable development of the PET some specific actions in the work. The report release site, master kong share their under the background of carbon neutral for the PET sustainable development efforts.

The report points out, look from consumption, bottle grade PET consumption growth in China, from 6.33 million tons in 2016 up to 2020 tonnes in 9.49 million. In 2020, China's total consumption of 9.49 million tons of PET bottles, although affected by the epidemic in 2020, exports fell to 2.34 million tons, accounting for 24.7% of the total consumption, but the amount of domestic demand continues to expand, reached 7.15 million tons, up 24.3% from a year earlier.
From the point of production, the capacity of bottle grade PET is always greater than consumption, its output from 2016 in 2019 to 10.44 million tons, 7.58 million tons of growth is a net exporter of PET bottles.

At present, bottled water and bottled drinks is a major consumption of PET bottle. From the perspective of a domestic PET bottle downstream consumption distribution, bottled water and bottled drinks were the main consumption areas, the total accounted for as high as 75%. Among them, the bottled water consumption accounts for more than 41%, is the most important field of consumption of bottle grade PET 8% carbonated drinks, fruit and vegetable juice 8%, other 18% bottled drinks.
Because PET bottle material non-toxic, odorless, tasteless, can direct contact with food grade product characteristics, PET bottle packaging materials became the most preferred beverage industry. Beverage companies, therefore, can be said to be the main downstream consumer, PET bottle beverage enterprises is very important for the sustainable development of the PET bottle has the same effect. And in response to the state environmental protection call for, at present already has - some head drink enterprises such as kang teacher, an active part in the environmental protection work of PET bottles, in the sustainable development of PET bottle for the industry to play a leading role and the social public.

But PET environmental protection work is still because of the domestic consumer acceptance, the reduction of industry progress. At present, the lightweight bottles either technology or recycled PET materials technology, has been relatively mature, but is still not widely used at home, the main reason is that the cost and the problem of consumer acceptance.
On lightweight bottle acceptance issues, in order to improve the experience of the consumer, the west and was the company puts forward the concept of "moderate gram", refers to the packaging can bring about better consumption experience at the same time, reduce the loss of raw materials not necessary area. From the perspective of technological development for the packaging material to carry on the fine management, in every link to reduce the use amount of plastic as far as possible, so that it can not only let consumers to accept, and can reduce the unnecessary waste of resources.

To continue the report points out, recycled PET acceptance issues, the current domestic production of high quality plastic renewable particles, the quality can reach the world level, at the same level have been able to meet the performance and security cosmetics bottles. But as a result of the domestic consumer acceptance, even in a technical environment under a good condition, recycled PET market were not good, affected by the consumption side, supply side capacity has not increased significantly, from 2016 to 2020, the Chinese renewable PET starts continues to decline, from 50% to 33%.
