3. Development trend of packaging ink
In the world, packaging inks have grown at an overall growth rate in various countries. In 1999, the growth rate in Asia was 3.5-4.5%; in South America, the growth rate was 5-6%; and the wallpaper ink used for packaging and decoration grew. The rate is 10%.
In 1999, European packaging inks produced a total of 250,000 tons. Taking BASF as an example, the production volume has reached 55,000 tons, accounting for 22% of the market share, with an annual growth rate of 7%; the sales value of the current year’s statements amounted to 380 million marks (including 194.3 million euros). The rate is 6.2%.
4. Development of packaging ink in Germany
Packaging inks are a new product that includes several varieties:
1 Water-based flexographic printing inks for paper and corrugated boxes;
2 new color liquid crystal ink, can be used for high-quality cardboard and label printing;
3Flexible Letterpress ink series can be used for printing on beverage packaging (such as beverage), such as ink without stupid type;
The technical development of 4UV inks and coating oils can be used for UV drying printing, occupying a certain share in the German market.
The market growth rate of various UV inks is as follows:
1 The occupancy rate for UV web offset printing is 10-14%;
2 UV-sheetfed offset printing for packaging printing has an increase rate of 100 - 150%;
3 UV sheetfed offset printing film dedicated to film printing also occupies a certain market share;
4The UV web offset printing rate for labels is 100-150%;
5 It is used for stable growth of UV lithographic label printing, with a relatively small market share and centered;
6Low growth rate of UV flexographic inks for film printing;
7 UV flexible printing inks for corrugated board have low growth rates.
The main developments in UV printing inks in Germany are as follows:
1 In terms of printing process requirements, when used for high-speed printing, fast drying is required.
2UV web offset printing requires low tensile strength when continuously printed, and UV single-paper offset printing for packaging requires enhanced paper-resistant corrugated cardboard.
3UV label printing inks are required to improve the adhesion of the ink, and it is more difficult to improve the adhesion on the film material, such as printed on the OPP or PA.
The brand value of the global printing industry is reflected in the product's ability to achieve a global standard quality, as well as raw materials, substrates and inks that can be produced using high technology. The quality of printing inks worldwide is reflected in the latest level of printing machinery in Europe and its quality.
Second, Asia
1. Overview of Printing and Ink Industry in China
1 The Chinese ink industry already has a considerable scale. The production enterprises have now grown to more than 300 companies and are located in more than 20 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions across the country. There are more than 20,000 employees, of which engineering and technical personnel account for 8% of the total number of employees. There are more than 30 key enterprises with considerable scale and strength. The comprehensive production capacity of ink is 225-250 thousand tons per year, accounting for 5-6% of the world's ink production. The quality of some major products of China's ink industry has approached or reached the advanced level of similar foreign products. In addition to basically satisfying the needs of the domestic printing and packaging and decorating industries, the products are also exported to over 50 countries including Manchuria, Australia, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe and the United States. Countries and regions. However, compared with the advanced level in foreign countries, there is still a considerable gap.
2 Changes in China's printing industry after China's accession to the WTO. A series of tax-based policies to promote consumption and encourage investment have a major impact on the printing industry. For example, in 1999, the country relaxed restrictions on the import of high-speed printing presses, so that the printing equipment as a whole has achieved a grade, so the impact of the policy on the domestic printing industry is significant.
In addition to automobiles and oil, printing is the third industry in developed countries in the world. Based on this calculation, the development space for China's printing industry is undoubtedly enormous. It is currently entering the second period of rapid economic growth. It is expected that there will be no problem with the growth rate of 8% if there is no force majeure factor during the 8-10 years. This will allow the printing industry as a tertiary industry to have more than 10% annual growth, making the Chinese printing industry advancing with the times.
3 China currently has 150,000 various types of printing companies, employs more than 3 million people, publishes and prints 140,000 books, more than 8,000 magazines, more than 2,000 kinds of newspapers, as well as valuable securities, packaging and decoration and other colorful prints each year. Entered the ranks of the world's printing powers. However, compared with the developed countries of the world, China's printing industry still has gaps in terms of ideology, overall technical equipment, personnel quality, operation management, and comprehensive benefits.
4 According to relevant statistics, China's relevant departments predict that between 2001 and 2005, the Chinese packaging industry will increase at an annual rate of 8%, and in 2005 the output value of the packaging industry will reach 320 billion yuan.
By 2005, the output value of paper packaging products is expected to reach 20 million tons, with an average annual growth rate of 9%; the output of plastic packaging products will be 5.04 million tons, and the average annual growth rate will be 8%; the output of glass packaging products will be 6.05 million tons, and the average annual growth rate It is 6%; the output of metal packaging products is 2.88 million tons, the average annual growth rate is 8%; the packaging and printing volume is 494 billion India, and the average annual growth rate is 9%; the packaging machinery market demand will reach 670,000 units, the average annual growth rate It is 8%.
2. Japan's printing ink production
Japan's production of printing inks in 1999 increased again compared to 1998. The largest increase in output is the offset printing market. As a result of production, the production of these printing inks increased by 7%. However, metal printing inks are reduced by 18% (see Table 1).
3. Printing
1 The printed Hindustan Ink Company (HINTSTEN) and Resins (HIRL) wanted to establish a production base in California, USA. To this end, a subsidiary, Micro Ink Corp., has been established, which intends to conduct ink pre-production (semi-finished products) in India before shipment to the United States for further processing. The business policy is to be transferred to other places in the future, such as the major ink markets in Europe and Asia. HIRL expects that there will be a clear record of growth in foreign production capacity in 2002. The ink factory can be put into production in Silvassa in the shortest time, and the annual production capacity is expected to reach 57,450 metric tons.
2Coates of India Ltd. (referred to as IL)
Coates of India Ltd. (IL), the Japanese subsidiary of the DIC Japan, recently built an ink factory in Ahmedabad, Ahmedabed, India. The scale of the design plan is 12,000 metric tons of final productivity, and the final product is black ink. Then 200 tons per month are produced. By the end of August or September, the infrastructure will be completed, and the plant will be equipped with equipment manufactured by the Swiss company Bühler Bühler.
