When reporters interviewed relevant management departments, industry experts believed that China's packaging machinery's excessive dependence on foreign high-end technology has become a serious concern that restricts the continuous and stable development of China's packaging industry. Because the technological content of most packaging products is reflected in processing technology and technical equipment, technology is at the core and equipment is the key. Packaging equipment plays a dominant role in packaging technology. Although the introduction of a large number of advanced equipment has greatly accelerated the development speed of China's packaging industry and narrowed the gap between China's packaging industry and developed countries, we cannot overly rely on foreign high-end technology and technical equipment. This is because foreign technical equipment is expensive, and some small and medium-sized enterprises do not have the resources to introduce it, which is not conducive to the overall improvement of the technical level of China's packaging industry; it is not conducive to developing our own intellectual property products,不利于培育自主品牌。 If this situation continues, we will only follow others, resulting in the loss of control over development and market initiative, restricting brand independent innovation.
It is understood that China's packaging machinery started late. Before the 1980s, its development was slow, only able to produce a few types of very basic packaging machinery, without becoming an independent industry. The national published product catalog did not even include packaging machinery as a category. After the reform and opening up, social demand for packaging machinery continued to increase, along with government attention and support, allowing China's packaging machinery to develop rapidly, with an annual average growth rate greater than 30%. In the 1990s, it still grew at a rate of more than 20%. After more than 20 years of development, China's packaging machinery has become one of the top ten industries in the machinery industry. Whether in terms of output or variety, it has achieved remarkable results, providing strong guarantees for the rapid development of China's packaging industry. However, although China's packaging machinery industry has developed rapidly, there have also been phenomena of low-level repetitive construction.
