According to statistics, the annual global condiment turnover is as high as US$218 billion, which accounts for about 10% of the food industry. It is a typical small product and large market. At present, the total output value of the condiment industry in China is about 130 billion, which is approximately US$20 billion, accounting for less than 10% of the total world condiment market. The average annual growth rate of the industry is maintained at around 10%. Compared with the total volume of the world condiment industry, the development gap in the condiment industry in China is obvious. It can be seen that there is a huge potential for development in the Chinese condiment market.
The huge market prospects for condiments have also led to the development of the condiment packaging industry.
With the constant changes in people’s consumption awareness, the packaging requirements for condiments have become increasingly stringent. The domestic condiment packaging equipment has constantly changed itself to adapt to the development of the society, and strives for perfect packaging, becoming the main force for flavoring product packaging on the market.
With the 80s and 90s becoming the new force for household kitchen consumption, the appeal for consumption is not confined to the traditional condiments themselves. The new generation of forces has also put forward requirements for the packaging and design of condiments. Personalization, fashion, and multi-functionality have become potential requirements. The development of e-commerce has driven the increase of cross-regional trade. In the transaction process of condiments, logistics and transportation have become an indispensable link. In particular, in the course of dealing with 80 and 90 transactions, the proportion of logistics and transportation has increased year by year. Convenient packaging features such as convenience and robustness are highlighted. Food safety and environmental safety are particularly important in today’s China. Whether or not condiment packaging materials are environmentally friendly and safe, and the application of new packaging technologies are indirectly or directly affecting the production and development of companies. Modern people all know that the pursuit of enjoyment, spices have fresh, fragrant, spicy and other tastes, products are very popular with consumers. Coupled with the originality of packaging design, giving a strong visual impact, modeling more and more beautiful, more innovative future.
Food packaging can not only protect food from contamination, increase shelf life, but also play a role in promoting sales. As consumers appreciate the aesthetics of goods and their demand, good creative packaging can often add a lot to a product, attract consumers, and promote sales. China has a wide variety of seasoning varieties and the demand for packaging is not the same, but it is generally divided into bottles and bags.
With the rapid development of the chili sauce market, the demand for domestic chili sauce bottles will also grow rapidly. This is an opportunity worthy of grasping for packaging and related machinery manufacturers. For example, Laoganma, a leader in chilli sauce, has always used the chili sauce bottle packaging used by domestic manufacturers and is similar to the bottle shape created by Laoganma. The chili sauce bottles are packaged in wide-mouth, glass or PET plastic packaging capacities of around 200-500 ML.
In addition to hot pepper sauce, other varieties of condiment packaging are also changing with each passing day. Monosodium glutamate packaging is basically a plastic bag, which is different from other packaging plastic bags used in place is to use a transparent composite plastic bag to increase moisture resistance and moisture resistance. Some MSG are also packaged in plastic bottles and special bottle caps are designed. After the rotation, MSG can be sprinkled and rotated and closed. It is very convenient to use. For home users, such packaging is welcome. Similar to the MSG form and packaging, it is powdered condiments such as pepper and chili powder. The packaging form of such condiments has transitioned from a single plastic bag to a soft plastic bottle, but most of the bottle's workmanship is still relatively rough.
Equipment fully automated packaging is an inevitable trend
The survey results show that the growth of the Chinese condiment industry has been more than 30% each year in recent years. With the continual development of the condiment industry and the continuous expansion of enterprises, enterprises adopting traditional packaging methods are in desperate need of high-speed, high-automation packaging machinery to meet their production needs.
For most companies, the traditional manual filling method greatly reduces the production efficiency of condiment companies and can not meet the requirements of safe production. However, from the present perspective, due to market, sales, and financial obstacles, most condiment companies cannot achieve fully automated packaging except for some larger companies, but this situation will be forced along with the strategic expansion of brand companies. collapse.
Although traditional manual packaging methods can affect production efficiency, the introduction of fully automated equipment is not an overnight task. Because if we want to introduce new fully automated equipment, it will inevitably involve a series of adjustments in plant and equipment, as well as the recruitment and training of operators. These must be completed without affecting production, so it is difficult to implement it. General small and medium-sized enterprises dare not take measures to introduce and replace equipment. It is believed that with the intensification of market competition and the increasing supervision of the state, full automation of the production of condiment companies is an inevitable development trend.
