In the 21st century, plastics have become one of the main materials indispensable to society and one of the main industries of China’s light industry. In international trade, China’s trade volume of plastic products also ranks among the top domestic products. According to statistics, China’s national total output of plastic products accounts for about 20% of the world’s total output, ranking first in the world.
(1) The distribution of China’s plastics industry is obviously regional
In the early stage of the development of China’s plastic products industry, many companies would choose the relatively economically developed eastern region. As a result, most of my country’s large and medium-sized plastic products companies are mainly concentrated in the eastern coastal areas, distributed in Guangdong, Zhejiang, Shandong, Jiangsu and other provinces and cities. The development gap with the western region is large, and the regional development is not balanced, so that my country’s plastic products industry has formed a regional characteristic. Our company is also established in Guangdong. The main products are stretch film and Bopp Packing tape, which are also typical plastic products. Many of our counterparts are also distributed in the Pearl River Delta region. These years have achieved certain development and eliminated some quick successes. People.
Chinese plastic products companies have gradually shifted from the economically developed eastern coastal areas with relatively mature production technology to the central and western regions, which has promoted the growth of the plastic products industry and local economic development in the central and western regions. In 2018, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangsu, and Liaoning The total output of plastic products ranked in the top five provinces accounted for 55.8% of the total output of the national plastic products market. The output of plastic products in the central and western regions has increased as a proportion of the national output, but the regional nature of the industry is still more obvious.
(2) China’s exports of plastic products account for a large proportion of imports and exports
By comparing the import and export volume of China’s plastic products, the export volume has shown an upward trend every year. Although the import volume has increased in recent years, compared with the export volume, the proportion of the import volume has shown a clear downward trend, and the export volume has increased at a rate. To be faster than the growth of imports.
Compared with the export of Chinese plastic products, the import volume is relatively small, the import dependence is low, the export volume maintains a growth trend, and the situation continues to be good. The total export volume accounts for about one-third of the total domestic production. However, the Chinese plastic products Export advantage mainly depends on price, there is no substantial competitive advantage, and product value needs to be improved.
(3) The development speed of China’s plastic products industry has slowed down
At present, from the perspective of the development trend of the scale of China’s plastic products industry, the number of enterprises’ growth rate has stabilized from a high speed, and the scale of the industry has gradually expanded. According to the statistics of market size, there were 16,356 rubber and plastic products enterprises above designated size in my country in 2012, which increased to 18,621 in 2018. According to the statistics on the export of Chinese plastic products enterprises above designated size, the export delivery value growth rate was relatively high from 2013 to 2014, with a year-on-year increase of 2.8%. In 2015, it has fallen behind and tends to grow at a constant rate. In recent years, plastics The export delivery value of enterprises above the designated size of the product is generally on the rise. The scale and growth rate of the development of China’s plastic products industry have slowed down in recent years. Enterprises should make timely and continuous adjustments to adapt to the rapid development of the market, and update their management and operation methods and product structure.
(4) China’s domestic and foreign plastic products market has a large room for development
There is a huge market for plastic products. The large demand for polypropylene in household products, auto parts, packaging industry, medical equipment, and electrical and electronic industries is a key aspect of stimulating the development of the plastic products industry. This is the penetration of the plastics industry into other businesses. The field has created a greater way. In the packaging industry, the permeability of polypropylene products is increasing, and the plastic products used in packaging have gone through different stages of evolution to meet market quality standards and the needs of end users. In the automobile manufacturing industry, the mainstream trend of “replacement of steel with plastic” has opened up a larger market space for the development of the plastic products industry and has achieved more development opportunities. my country’s plastic products export market is mainly concentrated in economically developed countries. In the future, with the continuous upgrading of China’s plastic products production process technology, product innovation and higher consumption levels, the domestic and foreign markets of China’s plastic products industry will continue to grow and expand significantly.
