One, two decades of review:

Review of twenty years since the reform and opening up, in the construction of comrade deng xiaoping theories of socialism with Chinese characteristics and under the guidance of the party's basic line, compared with 30 years ago great changes have taken place in our country's economy development. In order to change the backwardness of China's packaging industry, the China packaging technology association was established in December 1980 by the state council. This is the first pilot association in China. Four months later, the metal container professional committee was established in April 1981. In the past 20 years, the metal container packaging industry has come a long way under the leadership of China's baoxie and the support of relevant departments and member units. The metal packaging system, which has been formed as an integral metal packaging system, is one of the important categories under the leadership of China.

The metal container committee has experienced ups and downs in the past 20 years, from small to large, from weak to strong, developing very quickly. Twenty years ago in 1979, the metal container packaging industry had no industry body. At that time, there were only fewer than 200 enterprises in the whole country, while the small and medium-sized enterprises were the majority. By the early 1990s, more than 700 had been developed, and more than 500 enterprises had been added in the past 10 years, with an average of 50 enterprises born in the year. In particular, the period of the "eighty-five" plan (91-95) was the heyday of the development of metal containers, and reached 1,100 by the end of 1995. At present, the approximate statistics show that there are more than 1,500 in guangdong, Shanghai, jiangsu, zhejiang, shandong and other places, guangdong is the most. In recent years, the beijing-tianjin region and the three northeastern provinces have developed rapidly.

The main reason for the rapid development of the packaging industry in the metal container is: first, the foreign investors have targeted the big market of China, and they have been flocking to China for investment and cooperation. Second, macroeconomic imbalance of township enterprises blind horse, and cause the market supply exceeds demand in recent years, some companies BanTingChan and losses, and into the trough, and this is just a temporary phenomenon, this year is better than last year, as the industry production, metal containers for "sunrise".

Ii. Current industry overview.

Although met with some difficulties, but on the whole, the trend of future development, according to the statistics of metal containers packaging products production at the end of 1979 compared with the end of 2000 from 350000 tons to 1.6 million tons, 3.6 times, has made brilliant achievements.

Metal container packaging is a kind of high-end packaging that consumers like. A variety of shapes and variety, the main products include: aluminum 2 cans, tin cans, tin cans, aerosol cans, food cans, cans, barrels, cans, boxes, all kinds of solid food security caps, crown cap, unscrew the cap, easy pull cover and different specifications of steel drum. The advantage of metal packaging is: beautiful, outside seal coating corrosion resistance, long shelf life, easy to carry, it is food, canned, beverage, oil, chemical industry, medicine, stationery and cosmetics goods packaging related industries such as supporting services to make positive contribution. With high starting point, large investment, advanced equipment, consummate technology and talents, advanced enterprise management has promoted the rapid development of the metal container industry. According to the preliminary investigation of the metal industry, the state-owned enterprises accounted for 33%, the tertiary enterprises accounted for 25%, the collective enterprises accounted for 31.5%, the foreign-owned enterprises accounted for 3%, the private enterprises accounted for 7%, and the state-owned enterprises still dominated. But from scale and asset to sort, the economic strength of the three - funded enterprises ranks first.

Iii. Future development trend.

1. China's economy will continue to develop, and the production of goods related to the packaging of metal containers will inevitably show a trend of growth in the future, which will push the metal container packaging industry out of the trough gradually. According to the research, the food industry has the fastest development in 1997, the total output value of the food industry reached more than 530 billion yuan, which is the national light industry crown. In many food fields, there will always be a large number of products in metal barrels.

2. The beverage industry is developing rapidly, and the variety of drinks is abundant. The beverage industry is booming. The beverage industry started late, and in 1982, the annual production of beverages in China was only 440,000 tons, with an annual average of less than 0.43 kg. In 1992, it reached 4.2 million tons, with an annual average of 4.4 kilograms. By 1998, the national beverage output had reached 12 million tons, with an annual average of 9.6 kilograms. That is to say, from 1982 to 1998, it grew 22 times, 1.8 times more than in 1992. Development is the main reason of the fast increasing impact power, variety, quality improvement, and people attach importance to the nutritional value and beverage brands appear to promote the development of large, while in the field of plastic bottles, glass bottles, cartons and other packaging occupies a share, but two piece cans, three cans is still dominant.

3. Canned industry: China's canning industry began in 1906, when Shanghai taifeng food company was the first food cannery in China. Since then, some workshops have been built in a few cities. In 1949, only 484 tons of canned goods were produced in China, and canned food was an emerging industry that had only gradually developed since 1953. It has formed one of the main industries of food industry. Only throughout the country more than 20 cannery, 1953 to 1997, has grown to the size of 1495 cans of enterprises, the annual output of 2.54 million tons, the highest is 1995, that year reached 305 tons, of which exports reached 860000 tons, exports in recent years an average of about a year between 70-800000 tons. Its varieties are mushroom, asparagus, horseshoe, broad bean, orange, white peach, lunch meat, steamed beef, steamed pork, ketchup... And so on, each export volume is above ten thousand tons, and its export volume ranks first in the world. It is estimated that the total can reach 4.5 million tons in 2005, and the export volume can reach 1.2 million tons, reaching 8 million tons in 2010. Among them, the metal can packaging occupies an important share, and the export cans are mainly made of tin cans. According to the relevant data, the canning industry consumes about 350,000 tons per year.

4. Beer: in 1999, the national output reached 20 million tons, which became the second largest beer producing country in the world, and the packaging was mainly bottled. About 4% of the beer is in two cans, and if it's four percent, there are 800,000 tons of two cans, and the annual demand is about 25 trillion. In the future, with the improvement of consumer living standards, the aluminum two can have the advantages of long shelf life, easy to carry and can open, and the market share of metal cans will gradually increase.

5. With the growth of economy, oil and grease chemicals, petroleum products, medicine, culture and education, cosmetics and other industries are bound to rise. The demand for metal barrels will double in these industries.

Despite these advantages, there are some disadvantages. After entering wto, it is faced with more fierce competition at home and abroad. The author shows that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages in the packaging industry after entering wto. We believe that after the entry into the world, foreign goods have come into China, and it is a temporary phenomenon that the transportation cost is not economical, and it is not economical to transport the contents from the container to China. In the long run, the foreign chamber of commerce will gradually build factories in China. As long as the quality of the empty cans is up to the foreign requirements, they still use the domestic barrels. Secondly, due to the lower tariff, the import price of iron, aluminum and related auxiliary materials must be reduced, which is beneficial to the cost reduction of domestic tank industry. The downside is that if our products fail to meet the requirements, they may still be able to carry empty cans from abroad and fill them at home. It's going to happen. It's not very likely.

Iv. Development strategy for the new century.

1. The coming of the new century, from the current situation related industries in the production, will pull the metal container industry out of the trough, tougher competition after wto accession, to the "quality win", don't lose money prices, the domestic industry of fire, why do the smoke. To consciously abide by the principle of self-discipline, prices together to discuss industry events, although the price coordination difficulties, we are going to invite the industry leading enterprises, a symposium to discuss price coordination problems.

2. In order to meet the challenge of wto entry, domestic enterprises and foreign enterprises will compete on the same starting line in the world economic stage. Key depends on the comprehensive strength, large group organized to competitive, can't find a way of "conveniently small" instead of "alone", should be gradually towards the specialization of production, packaging brand products. It is necessary to have good quality products, reasonable price and good after-sales service, and it is recommended that a large group of qualified enterprises can be competitive in the world.

3. With regard to the development of the western region, the central government proposed that the western development strategy should accelerate the development of the western region, which is of great significance for expanding domestic demand and promoting the sustained growth of the national economy. Packaging industry is no exception, as food industry, canned, beverage industry, beer industry, oil chemical industry, and many other related industries to the west, metal packaging industry should be prepared in advance. In the eastern region, the packing industry is dense and the people with a sense of vision should advance to the west. Wahaha group has developed the beverage industry in the past six years and achieved more development. But the packaging industry needs to conduct research, and the companies that need to keep up with the need for metal packaging can work with them or join them. The association, together with the large enterprise group with the intention of xi jin, went to the western region to investigate and help the local packaging association to carry out the field investigation without any loss of control.

4. More important talent introduction, talent competition is intense, at home and abroad education first, science and technology in the introduction of high-quality talent at the same time, the original quality is low, should strengthen the cultivation of culture, technology, quality, take short-term training and into university for further study the way of combining in order to improve the overall quality.
