The new business opportunity of environmental protection and biodegradable adhesive tape under the national plastic limit policy

As we all know, the amount of plastic used in our daily life is huge and the types are complex. However, not all plastics are easy to cause pollution problems. Most of the plastic products that can be used for a long time, such as the plastic shell of home appliances, clothing containing chemical fiber, etc., have long lifespan and can also be recycled after being discarded. But single-use plastics are different, like single-use plastic lunch boxes, takeout and delivery packaging tapes, plastic shopping bags, For example，BOPP tape is not only not Eco friendly, but also the strong adhesive glue will cause pollution, can’t be recycled.

Single-use plastics now account for nearly 40% of all plastics produced in the world each year, making them the leading source of plastic pollution. The earliest plastic restriction decree "Circular of The General Office of the State Council on Restricting the Production, sales and use of Plastic Shopping bags" (State Development Bureau (2007) No. 72) has been implemented since 2008, which is aimed at the largest and most used "plastic bags" in disposable plastic products, and the adhesive tape industry will face challenges at the same time. On January 19, 2020, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment issued the "Opinions on Further Strengthening the Control of Plastic Pollution" (hereinafter referred to as the "new plastic limit decree"), which further strengthens the restrictions on a wider range of plastic products, and is more comprehensive, systematic and targeted than the previous restrictions.

The new "plastic limit decree" clearly states: actively adopt new green environmental protection functional materials, increase the use of recycled plastics in line with quality control standards and use control requirements, strengthen the development of recyclable, easy to recycle, degradable alternative materials and products, reduce application costs, effectively increase the supply of green products. At the same time, special mention should be made to strengthen scientific and technological support: strengthen key core technologies and achievements transformation of recyclable and degradable materials, and improve the performance of alternative materials and products. Focusing on the safety and controllability of degradation and the economy of large-scale application, we will carry out the technical verification and product selection of degradable mulching film.

On the road of environmental protection innovation, Huayi not only challenges itself, but also to seize opportunities. The innovative and upgraded Huayi biodegradable adhesive tape is a new outlet for the domestic adhesive packaging tape industry. With wood pulp and cotton pulp as the base material, huayi biodegradable cellulose adhesive tape is processed with environmentally friendly glue. After SGS authoritative test, Huayi biodegradable adhesive tape can be degraded in 180 days when burying it into soil under natural condition. Moreover, it has the characteristics of high and low temperature resistance, and low noise. Huayi Huaxuan’s acrylic cellulose tape make it easier for cardboard and other paper packaging materials to be recycled by eliminating the need to separate plastic tape that can contaminate cardboard recycling! Therefore, it can reduce the industrial waste in the papermaking process, greatly improve the recovery rate of waste paper, and achieve green environmental protection. And the tape not only has high tensile strength, extensibility, it can be easily torn off with hands only, no need to use tape dispenser, really realize the "freehand" easy packing convenience, and loner shelf life!

At present, Japan, Europe and other countries have used Eco friendly tape for many years. South Korea has also banned the use of Bopp tape, and Peru will promote the use of environment-friendly plastic products from 2020. The world's top 500 enterprises began to use a large number of environmentally friendly materials, Domestic and foreign-funded enterprises began to restrict the use of plastic products at the request of the headquarters.

Biodegradable cellulose adhesive packaging tape will become one of the most popular new ecofriendly products, Huayi brand will create more and better new products in the cause of environmental protection! Looking forward to your attention!

People-oriented, honest and pragmatic, innovative and enterprising, repay the society
