Advantages and disadvantages of the four major beverage pack

glass packaging
    The advantages of glass packaging containers are: non-toxic, odorless, transparent, beautiful, good barrier, airtight, rich in raw materials, low price, and can be used multiple times. Moreover, it has the advantages of heat resistance, pressure resistance and cleaning resistance, and can be sterilized at high temperature and stored at low temperature. It is precisely because of its many advantages that it has become the preferred material for many beverages that require high packaging containers, such as fruit tea and sour jujube juice. Disadvantages of glass packaging containers: mainly due to self-heavy, easy to break, high transportation costs, poor secondary processing performance such as printing, resulting in a substantial reduction in usage.

    Plastic Packaging

    Due to the irreplaceable advantages of plastic packaging materials in terms of performance, price and freight, more and more traditional packaging materials are replaced by plastic packaging; the disadvantages of plastic packaging: the permeability coefficient of oxygen and carbon monoxide is large, which will lead to A chemical reaction occurs between the packaged object and the packaged object, and the packaged object also deteriorates in taste due to oxidation, and the aging of plastic products also affects the appearance quality, which is not beautiful and practical, and pollutes the environment.

metal packaging

    People's more common role of metal-packed beverages should be said that after the 1980s, the emergence of canned beverages has improved the level of people's lives. Metal cans for beverage packaging are divided into two-piece cans and three-piece cans. Three-piece cans are mostly used for packaging non-carbonated beverages, and two-piece cans are mostly used for carbonated beverages. The materials used for three-piece cans are mostly tin-plated steel sheets (tinplate), and the materials for two-piece cans are mostly aluminum alloy sheets. In the current market, aluminum cans are more widely used than iron cans. However, metal packaging containers also have certain shortcomings, mainly manifested in poor chemical stability, poor alkali resistance, poor quality of the inner coating or poor craftsmanship, which will make the beverage taste bad. In addition, metal cans are relatively less economical.

    paper packaging

    Paper is the cheapest, not as insoluble as plastic, not as brittle as glass, and not as heavy as metal, making it easy to carry. In addition, paper products are prone to decay, which can not only recycle recycled paper or be used as plant fertilizers, but also reduce air pollution and purify the environment. Here, compared with plastic, metal and glass packaging, paper packaging is identified as one of the most promising green packaging printing materials.

    Beverage packaging will develop towards green environmental protection, profit compression, merger and reorganization, brand sales, high-quality and high-energy characteristic packaging industry. How to better develop the packaging industry around the tenet of "safety, health and environmental protection" is an urgent issue for enterprises to consider.
