Urumqi paper cutlery is difficult to stand up

The ban on the production of disposable foam plastic Tableware by the State Economic and Trade Commission began at the end of last year. However, to this day, plastic foam tableware in Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang, not only has not been reduced, but it still occupies 90% of the market. The environmental protection large-scale enterprise producing disposable disposable biodegradable paper cutlery, Xinjiang Baker Music Paper Manufacturing Co., Ltd., has been struggling under the impact of white pollution products. On May 10th, the reporter saw Xinjiang Baker Music Paper Manufacturing Co., Ltd. in the Industrial Park of Urumqi Hi-tech Development Zone that only one of the company’s four production lines was in production, and the other three were helplessly quiet on one side. Placement is idle. Baker Music is an environmental protection company that produces disposable, degradable paper cutlery using Xinjiang mash as raw material. The products such as fast food lunch boxes, instant noodle bowls, and clean food trays are clean, beautiful, non-toxic, non-permeability, non-oily, light and durable, and they can be completely immersed in soil within three months after being discarded, without causing any damage to the environment. The Urumqi People’s Government also notified the State Economic and Trade Commission that the production, sale, and use of disposable non-degradable plastic tableware in the administrative area of ​​the city were prohibited, and the use of degradable paper tableware was promoted, and different types of violations were made. Degree of punishment decision. With such clear policy support, Baker Music should have a great deal of success. However, the result was that it had to suspend production seasonally to reduce basic expenses such as staff salaries and water and electricity consumption. For several years, they have no profit, they have not paid dividends to shareholders, and have struggled to survive. The root cause of this situation is that the opponent is too strong. Foam plastic tableware production and marketing companies rely on the advantages of mature technology, low cost, and large sales network coverage. They have jointly operated across the country and formed a step-by-step price barrier. In recent years, the prices of foamed plastic tableware on the markets across the country have dropped and dropped, and are always under pulp tableware. Taking Urumqi market disposable foam plastic fast food box as an example, in 1995 prices were as high as 0.50 yuan or more. After the introduction of pulp lunch boxes in 1996, it quickly dropped to around 0.40 yuan, currently only 0.13 yuan. 0.17 yuan. In the face of the aggressive price offensive of foam plastic tableware, paper tableware has also repeatedly lowered prices, but in the end, due to industry start-ups, the scale is still small, and product R&D investment is higher than its competitors. For example, Baker continued to improve the process, management, and management methods to reduce the price of each paper lunch box in Urumqi from the initial 0.48 yuan to the current 0.28 yuan. However, this price is still nearly 1 times higher than the foam plastic lunch box. It is understood that the situation of foamed plastic tableware in many eastern cities is much harsher. If you use a plastic foam tableware in Guangzhou penalty 30 to 50 yuan, sales of a fine of 1,000 yuan to 3,000 yuan. Hangzhou, a "banned" foam plastic tableware, one for paper pulp and other environmental protection companies to reduce taxes and subsidies to subsidize losses, just subsidies last year reached 22 million yuan. Under the role of this double-edged sword with Enwei, the replacement rate of environmental protection tableware such as paper lunch boxes in Hangzhou has reached over 80%. It seems that rather than spend a great deal of effort in managing white pollution in the future, it is better to help a group of green products now. The former must have spent much more than the latter. It is reported that in order to support this environment-friendly enterprise involving thousands of families, the leaders of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and Urumqi have recently led the relevant person in charge of the department to work on site at Baker Music Paper Manufacturing Co., Ltd. to solve problems for the company. It is believed that through the efforts of the government departments, Shuguang will come to environmental protection companies, and the haze that has long enveloped the hearts of Bakewell employees will also be swept away.
