A courier, the outer packaging wrapped around a circle of tape, after tearing open, the inside of the package has several layers of plastic film ... If you often online shopping, for such courier packaging, it must have been commonplace. However, due to the low recycling price and difficult storage of express packaging, it is often discarded after being used once, and the waste and environmental problems brought about by it cause consumers' attention. A few days ago, the State Post Bureau issued the "Implementation Plan for Promoting Green Packaging in the Express Delivery Industry", proposing that the packaging of the express delivery industry should achieve significant results in terms of greening, reduction, and recycling. Industry insiders said that the introduction of the program will play a certain supervisory role for over-packaging of express delivery.
Recently, the consumer Wang bought a set of 8 sets of glasses online. She was surprised when she received the package. The glass itself was not big, but the package she got was a big box about half a meter wide. Open this large box, first a layer of foam board, then a separate package for each glass, a layer of shock-proof plastic bubbles and densely taped tape, and foam inside the glass. The total packaging adds up to a few pounds.
For such over-packaging, Ms. Wang said, “Although waste, this is a common problem in the express delivery industry, because such packaging is nothing compared to online shopping for cross-border goods and fresh products.†It is understood that over-packaging of express delivery is more obvious in online shopping of some cross-border goods and fresh products. Ms. Xiao told the reporter that she once bought a eyebrow pencil through a cross-border e-commerce, and they all had three layers and three layers. If it is fresh online shopping, it is also necessary to use a variety of insulation, shockproof and other packaging.
According to the statistics of the State Post Bureau, in 2015, the national express delivery consumed 2.96 billion woven bags, 8.26 billion plastic bags, 9.9 billion packaging boxes and 16.95 billion meters of tape. The length of the tape can be 425 circles around the Earth's equator.
In the face of consumer squandering, e-commerce sellers also expressed their helplessness. Since Ms. Fang began to make overseas purchases in her circle of friends last year, she has suffered a lot of losses due to insufficient packaging. “The courier company needs to collect thousands of express mails every day. From the parts to the transportation process, it will inevitably be bumpy, but if the packaging is not enough, the goods will be easily damaged, so the cost of the seller will increase.†Ms. Fang said. In order to reduce the loss, she now prefers to pack several layers each time she sends the courier. The most commonly used materials for packaging are cartons, wrapping paper, air bags, bubble films, tapes, and the like.
The courier company also said that the over-package of express delivery is "a helpless move." It is understood that in order to prevent the goods from being squeezed or broken during transportation, the general sender will package the courier and then hand it over to the logistics company. The courier company will take different packaging for different commodities. For fragile products, the products are usually covered with foam paper, then packed in plastic bags and placed in plastic foam. After being placed in the carton, the gap will be filled with broken foam or newspaper, and then the carton will be tightly taped.
"Compared with the damage caused by the goods, the courier company would rather choose to over-package, even if it would cause material waste." A staff member of SF Express told the reporter that this statement has also been affirmed by express companies such as Yuantong and Shentong.
Subsequently, the reporter checked the relevant materials and found that at present, China's regulations for express packaging are only standard, not mandatory, and plastic bags like express delivery are not within the limits of the “plastic limitâ€.
It is worthy of recognition that the National Post Office issued the “Implementation Plan for Promoting the Green Packaging Work in the Express Industry†to encourage enterprises to explore simple packaging and reduce secondary packaging. To this end, the industry also said that the express delivery industry should improve the industry green development system as soon as possible, formulate green packaging standards, introduce corresponding management regulations, vigorously promote the application of environmentally friendly packaging materials; actively guide the express delivery industry to promote the use of recyclable packaging materials, Advocate users to moderate packaging and strengthen the management of recycling and disposal of packaging waste.
