Bottled beer packaging

Bundling and Packing: The common specification is 10 bottles/bundle, all of which are manual operations, low degree of automation, and slow packaging speed. They are very dangerous packaging methods both in sales and transportation, because of their low packaging costs and their economic underdevelopment. The remote areas are very popular. The relevant government departments have officially issued an announcement to prohibit the listing of bundled packaging based on considerations of safety, and announced that it will be fully implemented in 2003, which is an obsolete packaging method.

Plastic turnover box - common specifications for 24 bottles / box, 12 bottles / box, can be automated production, production and sales process safety factor higher. It can be used repeatedly for a long period of time. The disadvantage is that the initial investment cost is relatively large, and it is not suitable for long-distance transportation. The scope of use is limited. It is generally applicable to sales and transportation. The warehouse has a large area and the cost of sales and transportation is relatively high.

Hand-wrapped carton packaging - the common specification is 12 bottles/carton, the degree of automation is low, the speed is slow, the packing is still manual operation, there are certain unsafe factors in the production process, and less capital investment in the early stage equipment.

Carton Packaging Machine Wrappers - Same specifications as above, can realize automatic production, high speed, high safety factor, high initial investment cost

Carton packaging advantages:
1. Suitable for long-distance transportation. Relying on the good material characteristics of corrugated boxes and kraft liners and partitions, the carton has a good buffering effect, which effectively alleviates the bottle-damaging problem of bottled beer during transportation. This protection function cannot be compared with other packaging forms.
2. The combination of sales and transportation packaging, full color printing of cartons, so that beer can be directly on the shelf sales, and in the transport of the product brand also played a certain role of publicity, improve product quality.
3. In the form of packaging, dominating the packaging, especially in large-scale beer companies, this type of packaging accounts for the largest proportion, equipment, cartons and other suppliers of raw and auxiliary materials have basically reached the scale, and it is expected that carton packaging will be the main form in the short term. Supplementary pattern will not change.

Carton packaging defects:
1. High cost; 2. Can not be recycled; 3. After being exposed to moisture, it is easily deformed; 4. Others do not see the product inside; 5. Packaging materials occupy a large area.
Plastic film wrap - can be divided into four kinds of semi-support transparent film wrap, half care color printing film wrap, flat paper tray transparent film wrap and flat paper tray color printing film wrap. The regular size is 12 bottles/pack, 9 bottles/pack. This packaging method is produced by a fully automatic machine and is also safer and more reliable in the sales process, and the cost of this packaging method is relatively low.

Advantages of plastic film wrapping:
1. Low cost: Even if the color printing film is used, the packaging cost is only half that of the carton; the storage cost of packaging materials is greatly reduced, and the main packaging material becomes a film roll with very little space; the hot melt adhesive needed for carton packaging is saved. Costs and maintenance and maintenance of hot melt equipment; price of plastic film wrappers at the same speed is much lower than the price of carton wrappers.
2. Good market display: The competition in the beer industry today is the competition of the brand. The position of the beer brand in marketing is more and more important. The use of plastic film wrapping allows customers to quickly identify a certain brand of beer from the packaging of many beer on the store shelves. In addition, compared with color printing carton, the color printing film is more vivid in product packaging and thus has better market displayability.
3, compared with the carton packaging, it is not easy to damp damage.

Plastic film wrapping defects:
1. It is still a long time for new packaging methods to win the recognition of the market and beer companies.
2, in the shock, fight and other performance is still slightly inferior to the carton.

Beer companies talk about the use of packaging

Tsingtao Brewery Group (Production Department):

At present, the outer packaging of Tsingtao beer is mainly divided into three forms: carton, plastic turnover box, and fresh-keeping barrel. Basically, fresh-keeping barrel packaging accounts for 5 to 6% of the total volume and is sold locally. The plastic turnover box is limited to remote areas in Shandong Province, with a small share of about 10% to 15%. However, due to the rapid growth of bottled beer consumption in rural areas in recent years, this proportion has been increasing year by year. Most of the sales outside the province (including national and export products) use carton packaging, and the share of this type of packaging is the largest in the total production volume. Corrugated carton has good seismic and anti-jamming properties suitable for the long-distance transport of Tsingtao beer products. And the existing equipment has realized the automation of the carton code box, and its packaging speed can meet the company's large-scale high-speed daily production. Speaking of the recent rise in the use of heat-shrinkable film packaging, Tsingtao said that it is still at an experimental stage. Through the trial of some products, the advantage of this form of packaging is that the cost is lower, with 12 bottles of 640-ml bottled beer being A unit to compare, shrink film packaging will be 0.3 yuan cheaper than carton packaging. In addition, equipment in this form of packaging does not require a large amount of investment in the early stage, and equipment purchased at a price of 200,000 to 300,000 yuan can basically meet the requirements of the enterprise for mechanical performance and speed. The packaged beer has a compact bottle body, which turns from 6 to 12 bottles into a unified whole, preventing the bottle from breaking due to collision and shaking between the bottles. In the next few years, shrink film packaging will be tested on a small number of products. The possibility of replacing all cartons is not significant, mainly because one-time replacement of the original carton packaging equipment will result in excessive capital investment. This will be a gradual replacement. the process of. It can be said that the packaging form of heat-shrinkable film for bottled beer is worthy of promotion and will be a trend in the future.

Zhujiang Beer Group (Technical Department):

The heat shrinkable film packaging is also used in Zhujiang Beer Group. It is mainly used for the stacking of unfilled empty beer bottles and cans. The bottled beer after filling is basically packed with cartons and plastic turnover boxes. For this new form of packaging, in terms of market, Zhujiang Beer also needs to conduct further investigations on the level of consumer acceptance and acceptance. In terms of storage and transportation, there are still some technical issues that need further discussion. After the introduction of the new national standard on beer packaging, there are still some details to be carefully understood. Therefore, at present, Zhujiang Beer still adopts traditional methods on the outer packaging, and temporarily does not consider the use of heat shrinkable film as the outer packaging of bottled beer.

New member of beer packaging equipment - plastic film wrapper

Compared to carton wrapping equipment, plastic film wrappers have the following advantages:

1. The operator is more relaxed, and at a production rate of 35 bales/hour, the plastic film wrapper changes the film every three hours, whereas the carton wrapper installs cardboard once every 15 minutes. 2. For small cans of 2 x 2 or 2 x 3 cans of beer, the production efficiency can also be doubled by using double-pass packaging, but carton wrapping is not possible.

The company that manufactures plastic film wrappers Siu Wing Group Ke Shi Min (China) Co., Ltd.
