1. polystyrene (PS) plastic box Polystyrene (PS) plastic box is a more common takeaway packaging material. Its advantages are high transparency and beautiful appearance, but it has poor heat resistance and can only withstand temperatures below 60°C. 2. Polypropylene (PP) Plastic Box Polypropylene (PP) plastic box is a relatively heat-resistant material for takeaway packaging, which can withstand temperatures up to 125°C and is safer than polystyrene. 3. polyethylene (PE) plastic box Polyethylene (PE) plastic box is another common takeaway packaging material, which has the advantages of good flexibility and impact resistance, and is more environmentally friendly, but the transparency and appearance are average. 4. polyurethane (PU) plastic box Polyurethane (PU) plastic box is a high-priced takeaway packaging material, commonly used in high-end restaurants, with good temperature resistance and thermal insulation performance. In addition to the above several common plastic box materials, there are some special materials, such as cellulose, corn starch, etc., which have better biodegradability and are more in line with the requirements of environmental protection development. In short, takeaway plastic boxes of various materials have their advantages and disadvantages, and businesses need to choose according to actual needs when choosing. At the same time, consumers also need to pay attention to the packaging material when consuming takeaway food, and choose environmentally friendly, safe and healthy takeaway food packaging.

As a green packaging material, biaxially oriented polystyrene sheet (BOPS sheet) industry concentration is high.

Biaxially oriented polystyrene sheet, also known as BOPS sheet and OPS sheet, refers to a new type of polymer environmental protection material made of biaxially oriented polystyrene as raw material. BOPS sheet has the advantages of good transparency, light weight, high strength, good chemical stability, low production cost, and environmental protection. It is widely used in the fields of medicine, food, and daily necessities packaging. The main raw material of BOPS sheet is polystyrene (PS), which is a high molecular polymer with high rigidity, high transparency, easy processing and molding. Polystyrene is widely used in building materials, packaging, consumer electronics and other fields, benefiting from the growing market demand, China's polystyrene production continues to grow. In 2022, China's polystyrene production reached 3.569 million tons, up 9.2 percent year-on-year. Adequate supply of raw materials provides favorable conditions for the development of China's BOPS sheet industry. In 2022, China's BOPS sheet production will reach 189000 tons. The packaging field is the largest demand end of BOPS sheet. BOPS sheet has the advantages of strong temperature adaptability, good chemical stability and recyclability, and can be used as packaging materials for various products such as medicine, food, and daily necessities. In recent years, with the improvement of the production process of local enterprises, the production cost of BOPS sheet in China has been declining, which has led to further growth in market demand. According to the "Report on Market Depth Research and Development Prospect Forecast of China's Biaxially Stretched Polystyrene Sheet (BOPS Sheet) Industry from 2023 to 2028" released by Xinsijie Industry Research Center, the market size of China's BOPS sheet will reach 1.92 billion billion yuan in 2022, up 18.3 year on year. It is expected that in the next period of time, driven by market demand, the development space of China's BOPS sheet industry will be further expanded. In September 2022, the China Packaging Federation issued the "China Packaging Industry Development Plan (2021-2025)". The document clearly stated that it is necessary to develop green packaging materials and increase the promotion of reusable and recyclable plastic packaging materials. Benefiting from policy support, BOPS sheet as a green packaging material, the industry development trend will continue to improve. China's BOPS sheet market competition is fierce, the industry concentration is high, leading enterprises occupy a dominant position in the market. Tianjin Rentai New Material Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Yonghe Polymer Material Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Yongning Modern Packaging Industry Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Angtian Plastic Industry Co., Ltd., Changzhou Plastic Group Co., Ltd., Shanghai Luoxing Packaging Material Co., Ltd. are the main manufacturers of BOPS sheets in China. Shenzhen Yonghe Polymer Materials Co., Ltd. is the largest manufacturer of BOPS sheets in China. At present, the annual production capacity of BOPS sheets reaches 72000 tons. Xinsijie industry analysts said that BOPS sheet has the advantages of good transparency, light weight, and high strength, and is widely used in the packaging field. With national policy support, China's green packaging materials industry boom, will drive further growth in demand for BOPS sheet market. There are many BOPS sheet production enterprises in China, and the industry concentration is high. In the future, enterprises with high quality BOPS sheet production capacity will occupy more space in the market.

What is HIPS material?

HIPS material, all called high impact polystyrene, is a thermoplastic material made of elastomer modified polystyrene. It is a two-phase system composed of rubber phase and continuous polystyrene phase. It has excellent impact performance and processing performance. It is widely used in automobiles, equipment, electric products, furniture, household appliances, telecommunications, electronics, computers, disposable products, medicine, packaging and entertainment markets. 12 Compared with ABS and ordinary plastics, HIPS materials have higher impact strength, which makes them less prone to rupture when impacted. At the same time, HIPS material has good oil resistance, water resistance, soluble in benzene, toluene, ethyl acetate, dichloroethane and other organic solvents. Its density is relatively low, about 1.04-1.06 g/ml, the appearance of white opaque beads or particles. Regarding the safety of HIPS materials, it is generally believed that it is non-toxic, so baby products can also use HIPS materials. However, for specific applications or long-term exposure, appropriate safety testing is recommended to ensure safety. In general, HIPS materials have become an important thermoplastic material due to their excellent physical properties, processability and wide range of applications.
