Major breakthroughs in key industrial technologies will ensure the quality and safety of China’s food products and enhance the competitiveness of the food industry in the domestic and international markets, experts said
On November 26TH, THE Asian DESIGN CAPACITY LARGEST, THE MAIN PRODUCTION PROCESS EQUIPMENT THE MOST ADVANCED TWO PIECE CAN PRODUCTION ENTERPRISE OF OUR COUNTRY SETTLED IN China ZHEJIANG SHANGYU – DOMESTIC HEAD PACKAGING CO., Ltd. grand opening. This MEANS THAT THE production AND manufacturing of two metal packaging cans in our country has reached the international advanced level.
The project covers an area of 114,005 square meters, with a total investment of 415 million yuan in the first phase. The main products are two aluminum cans of 250ml, 330ml and 500ml of 202/206 caliber. The designed capacity of the project is 800 million per year, mainly producing and manufacturing beverage cans and beer cans.
The main process equipment of production is introduced from the United States, Germany and the Netherlands, which is the most advanced two-piece can production line in the world during the construction of the project. All production lines adopt the world’s most advanced PLC control system, and use the metal packaging industry’s international leading data acquisition system, automatic online detection system, report system and ERP system.
China Packaging Federation metal container committee experts said that the Shangyu project has made a major breakthrough in the key technology of China’s metal packaging industry, and will bring predictability to ensure the quality and safety of China’s food products and enhance the competitiveness of the food industry in the domestic and international markets.
Relevant information shows that in 2011, international packaging sales revenue of 592.2 billion US dollars. Metal packaging accounted for $102 billion, 17% of the total international packaging, with per capita consumption of $13.6.
