The present situation of printing industry

As an important part of packaging and decoration printing, paper products packaging and printing industry has the advantages of easy processing, low cost, suitability for printing, environmental protection and recycling. It is the most widely used packaging in the market, and its output value accounts for about one-third of the overall output value of the packaging and printing industry. In recent years, thanks to the advantages of products and the continuous strong downstream demand, the scale of the industry has grown steadily.

The industry expanded steadily, with a year-on-year increase of 5.05% in 20 18.

Papermaking is one of the four great inventions in ancient China. As early as the Eastern Han Dynasty, paper could be manufactured in batches. Paper products have been very popular since Cai Lun improved the papermaking technology in the Eastern Han Dynasty. They are not only widely used in the field of painting and calligraphy, but also change the way of painting and calligraphy creation. More importantly, they promote the development of paper packaging and provide a guarantee for the gradual separation of packaging production from the container field.

During the Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties, the progress of papermaking technology and printing technology not only made paper packaging widely used in social production and life, but also made packaging really an accessory in the field of commodity exchange. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, paper packaging entered a stage of all-round prosperity. Paper packaging is not only popular in the court, but also widely used among the people. In the folk, the commercial and advertising functions of paper packaging are fully displayed, and the widespread use of paper packaging printed with product attributes has contributed to the emergence of independent commodity packaging.

Up to now, paper packaging printing has developed into an important branch of packaging printing industry in China. According to the Basic Information of Press and Publication Industry in 20 18 issued by the General Administration of Press and Publication, the income of China's packaging and decoration printing business reached 1068645 billion yuan in 20 18. Combined with the development data of packaging and printing industry for many years, the business income of packaging and printing industry of paper products in China is 36338+08.

According to the Basic Information of Press and Publication Industry in 20 18 issued by the General Administration of Press and Publication, the total profit of packaging and decoration printing in China in 20 18 was 63.709 billion yuan. Combined with the gross profit margin of Yutong Technology, Meiyingsen and other representative advantageous enterprises, the total profit of China paper products packaging and printing industry in 20 18 years was calculated according to the proportion of 34%.

In the first three quarters of 20 19, Mei Yingsen's gross profit margin reached 32.66%.

In view of the phenomenon of demand stratification, the leading domestic paper packaging and printing enterprises choose their own market positioning and service groups, such as Hexing packaging products are mainly light packaging, Meiyingsen products pay equal attention to light, heavy and fine packaging, Yutong Technology locates high-end customer base and focuses on fine packaging.

Different product structures lead to different profitability of leading enterprises. The raw materials used in light packaging and heavy packaging products are universal, the manufacturing process is simple and the added value of products is low. The high-end packaging/boutique packaging uses exquisite raw materials, has certain technical barriers, and the product manufacturing process is relatively complex and has high added value. Accordingly, leaders who focus on different product types will have different performances. In contrast, the gross profit margin of Yutong Technology Yumeisen will be significantly higher than that of Hexing Packaging.

In the first three quarters of 20 19, the gross profit margins of Hexing Packaging, Meiyingsen and Yutong Technology were 13.02%, 32.66% and 30.42% respectively.

In 20 18, the total import and export volume reached 5.628 billion us dollars.

In terms of import and export trade, the import volume and export volume of China paper packaging industry are on the rise. According to customs data, the total import and export volume of China's paper packaging industry from 20 18 to 12 was US$ 5.628 billion, a year-on-year increase of 15.45%. Among them, the import value was $65,438 +0.5 1 billion, up by 7.95% year-on-year; The export value was US$ 5.477 billion, a year-on-year increase of16.97%; The trade surplus was US$ 5.326 billion, up 16.36% year-on-year.
