The world's first bio-based thin-walled injection-molded polypropylene material has a breakthrough in reducing the wall thickness to 0.12 millimeters while still maintaining a flexural strength of 17 MPa. It reduces the weight by 38% compared with traditional PP materials and realizes a dual-path cycle of 100% physical recycling and biodegradation. This marks a milestone breakthrough in the field of green packaging materials in China.

Under the dual challenges of the global upgrading of the plastic restriction policies and the tightening of pharmaceutical safety standards, the new-generation high-barrier PET blister packaging solution, "EcoShield Pro", has been introduced. Through breakthrough material modification technology, while maintaining the environmental advantages of PET, this product achieves top-level barrier performance with an oxygen transmission rate (OTR) of less than 0.5 cm³/m²·day·atm and a water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of less than 0.3 g/m²·day. It provides the pharmaceutical and food industries with a new packaging option that combines sustainability and ultra-high protection.

The State Council urges the acceleration of the design guidelines for the recyclability and regeneration of PET/HDPE, and the green transformation of the plastics industry is entering the fast lane.

At present, the global plastic recycling market is undergoing profound changes. The US r-PET market is showing an extremely strong demand, and in sharp contrast, the supply from Asia has fallen into a restricted predicament.

On March 14, 2025, the Launch Meeting of the National Standard for "Requirements of Production and Sales Management System of Recycled Plastics" and the First Working Meeting for the Formulation and Revision of the Standard were successfully held at the China National Institute of Standardization. More than 50 representatives from industry associations, universities, scientific research institutions, and enterprises participated in the meeting both online and offline.

As the key equipment in the plastic processing industry, plastic machinery occupies an important position in China's manufacturing industry system. After more than 70 years of development, a complete industrial chain has been established at present. It not only meets the domestic demand but also shows strong competitiveness in the international market.

On March 5th, during an exclusive interview with the reporters of our newspaper, Changyou Zhou, a deputy to the National People's Congress, focused on the hot topics of the recycling and utilization of waste plastics and the development of a circular economy, and deeply shared his research findings, opinions and suggestions. He stated that the problem of plastic pollution is becoming increasingly serious, and it is extremely urgent to strengthen the recycling and utilization of waste plastics and develop a circular economy.

In the world of children's toys, material safety is the eternal top priority. Polyethylene (PE), with its non-toxic and harmless properties as well as its resistance to drops and impacts, has become the preferred material for infant and toddler toys worldwide. From soft rattles to educational building blocks, from outdoor slides to role-playing props, PE, in the guise of an "omnipotent protector", is providing children with an umbrella of safety as they explore the world.

Is the Cold Winter Arriving in the Recycled PET Industry? The Path to Breakthrough under the Policy Favorable Wind (In-depth Industry Observation in March 2025)

Do you know that the PET bottles we casually discard are embarking on a wonderful recycling journey, quietly transforming the world.
