Can plastic do something for overpacking?

Excessive packaging, with the words of experts is: packaging supplies too much, too heavy, the volume is too large, the cost is too high, too gorgeous decoration, saying that the word is too beautiful and so on.

Most plastic packaging only once, according to rookie network data, 2016 China Express more than 30 billion pieces, 12 billion plastic bags, 14.4 billion boxes, 24.7 million meters sealing tape - can be around the earth more than 600 laps, 95% of the value of plastic packaging materials have been lost, each year about 80 billion -1200 billion US dollars. Can you imagine that a plastic man looked at the white plastic flower (silver) material (child) was so alive and thrown away, his heartache index how high?


In the suppression of excessive packaging, we have to learn from Germany. German regulations require that the packaging volume of more than 10% of the product itself and packaging costs significantly beyond the 30% of the goods, should be judged as infringement of consumer rights and interests of the "commercial fraud", while Germany also set up a traditional plastic bag levy 1.27 euros / Kg of tax, fully biodegradable plastic bags tax free.

The world is emphasizing environmental protection, and new plastic people, of course, have to use new ways to do plastic, from the source to stop the "one-time" - to improve recycling, increase the reuse of packaging, biodegradable packaging use.

In fact, our daily life often used in more than 10 kinds of plastic, such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyester (PET), nylon (PA), polyvinyl chloride (pvc), polystyrene Ethylene (PS) and so on. In principle, all thermoplastics can be recycled several times, but the recovery process conditions are different. Such as nylon can be made into car decorative cloth, polystyrene waste plastics can be recycled into outdoor chairs. If we take such action as recycling styrofoam, then the waste plastic will not have to bury or incinerate. It is a good measure to protect the environment. And we can also reuse the resources to do other products.
