China will become the largest producer of corrugated paper in Asia after three years

From the synthesis of various data, it can be seen that the global corrugator production volume has a very close relationship with the global economic growth. The growth rate of paper machine production and demand is an advanced indicator of a country’s economy. In general terms, the growth of the paper machine market in various countries is generally in line with the country’s economic growth rate, with little difference. For China and Hong Kong, its economic growth is more highly correlated with the output of corrugators, especially the domestic and export markets for light industries such as food, beverages, appliances and toys, which have a considerable impact on the increase or decrease in demand for corrugators. China’s economy has maintained rapid growth in recent years and is expected to maintain this momentum in the next three years. China's export market Although the future of its major trading country, the United States, is uncertain, the demand for corrugators should not have much impact. There is also no significant change in the domestic market. Moreover, due to the enhanced environmental awareness, in general, due to the recyclable nature of the paper devices, it will promote the market share of paper containers to increase, and the recyclable nature of the corrugator will promote the market share of paper containers. The market share of corrugators in transport packaging will also increase. This trend is expected to last for at least three years. Accordingly, ICCA predicts that in the next three years, the mainland China and Hong Kong (whose paper mills have mostly moved to Guangdong Province, China) will produce 12.4 billion square meters of corrugated paperboard in 2000. The forecast for 2001 is 13.4 billion square meters, and the estimated production in 2004 will reach 16.5 billion square meters. By then, Japan’s production is estimated to be 14.5 billion square meters, that is, three years later, China’s mainland and Hong Kong will overtake Japan as Asia’s largest corrugator producer.

In addition, it is estimated that the corrugator market in mainland China will work harder.

A. In the future, the usage in mainland China will also show a steady growth. The current market is dominated by B and C, and mini-watts have not yet started.

However, senior domestic experts warn the carton industry that at present, the output of domestic paper machines is far greater than the demand, and there is a general lack of start-up. The paper mills should not blindly add equipment and expand the scale. Further attention should be paid to improving the quality and developing paper machine specifications that meet market demands. To meet the growing market demand for paper machines.
