2. New business industry
There are two main products operated by the new company: EPP circulating insulation box and PP circulating hollow board packing box. EPP circulation incubator belongs to the product of logistics turnover box. Standardized logistics turnover box refers to a small box container with foldable, reusable, good technical performance, high quality and in line with national standards. It can be widely used in many fields, such as agricultural and sideline product transportation, industrial intermediate turnover, lunch distribution in primary and secondary schools and so on. In recent years, with the continuous and rapid development of logistics industry, the use of logistics packaging materials is increasing, resulting in a large amount of resource consumption and environmental pollution. The cycle sharing of standardized logistics turnover boxes can effectively replace disposable white foam boxes, greatly reduce white pollution, and achieve the recycling and reduction of logistics packaging, which is conducive to improving the market environment and promoting the construction of ecological civilization. In 2021, the national development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Commerce and the State Post Office issued a series of policy requirements, such as the notice on organizing the pilot of large-scale application of recyclable express packaging and the notice on doing a good job in the promotion and application of standardized logistics turnover boxes jointly issued by eight ministries and commissions, It will have a positive impact on the application of recyclable packaging and logistics packaging standardization.
The company’s EPP circulating incubator is mainly used in cold chain transportation of fresh food, aquatic products, food, medicine and so on. In the field of fresh and aquatic transportation, according to the statistics of China Industrial Research Institute, the annual output of vegetables and aquatic products in China in 2020 will be 749 million tons and 65.49 million tons respectively. This product has the demand for long-distance transportation and heat preservation. Compared with traditional foaming materials EPS and EPU, EPP products have better impact resistance, heat insulation, environmental impact resistance, and recyclability With the characteristics of recyclability, the EPP incubator can replace the traditional disposable white foam box when it meets the above transportation needs. It is in line with the policy direction of national energy conservation and emission reduction. With the continuous promotion of the government, the market will enter a stage of rapid development, and the market has great potential.
The main target market of the company’s PP circulation hollow plate packing box is to replace cartons, foam boxes and other packaging materials in the current postal express area. According to the China Express development index report in December 2021 released on the website of the State Post Office, China’s express business volume exceeded 100 billion in 2021, and 83.36 billion in 2020.
