[China Aluminum Industry Network] The sudden emergence of the Chinese take-away market has driven the rapid development of the lunch box packaging industry. The “aluminum foil lunch box†can be better maintained due to its light material properties, high barrier properties, UV resistance, moisture resistance and corrosion protection, and long shelf life. Freshness and moisture of foods are more in line with modern people's environmental health concepts and are increasingly favored by fast food delivery market operators. Definition of "aluminum foil lunch box" "Aluminium foil lunch box" is aluminum disposable lunch box, it is a new type of food and beverage delivery container, compared with other materials of the lunch box, it has a light material, high barrier properties, anti-ultraviolet radiation, moisture and corrosion protection and long shelf life Characteristics, but also because aluminum can better maintain the freshness of food and water, more in line with modern people's environmental health concept. At present, aluminum foil lunch boxes are mostly used for the packaging of airline foods, cake foods, supermarkets, grilled chickens, and other food products for the outside food industry. In fact, as early as during the Shanghai APEC meeting, aluminum foil lunch boxes have become the preferred dining utensils for heads of state. During the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, aluminum foil lunch boxes were even more popular among athletes and service personnel. At the Shanghai World Expo, aluminum foil lunch boxes were first used in large-scale applications in China. It is understood that during the World Expo, only the central kitchen of the staff of the Expo will supply about 6,000 servings a day, and as many as 10,000 servings at a high level. Although the "aluminum foil lunch box" has been better used in the World Expo, the current promotion and popularization rate is still low, and the propaganda is still far from the height it deserves. It is far from being integrated into ordinary people's daily life. Promote "aluminum foil lunch box" to deal with "white pollution" In China, the "silver tray" of the "aluminum foil lunch box" is still somewhat unfamiliar to the ordinary people. The plastic box is commonly used in the market. Relevant data show that almost 90% of disposable lunch boxes on the Shanghai market are polystyrene plastic lunch boxes. This plastic lunch box not only brings harm to human health, but also causes great pollution to the environment. The physical characteristics of plastic lunch boxes have obvious drawbacks when they are used. When people use disposable foam plastic utensils to hold hot foods whose temperature exceeds 65 degrees Celsius or when boiling water is used, the toxic substances contained in such dishes can easily infiltrate. food. If the concentration of this harmful substance is exceeded, the poison will be greater. The results of foreign studies show that the body's long-term absorption of chemicals in disposable foaming utensils will cause damage to the liver and kidneys. In addition to causing harm to the human body, this "white pollution" has also caused greater damage to the environment. The discarding of used plastic lunch boxes in the environment not only affects the appearance of the city and the natural landscape, but also creates a “potential hazard†to the ecological environment because it is difficult to degrade. National and local authorities have successively promulgated relevant policies and regulations and prohibited the use of disposable foam plastic utensils. However, unfortunately, these unqualified dishes are still "popular" on people's table. Under the state's repeated orders, they are only "transferring bans for sale" and have not been comprehensively and effectively contained. So, what kind of material box replaces disposable foam tableware? The product is light in weight, meets national food hygiene standards, and is easily recycled. No harmful substances are produced in the process, and it does not pollute renewable resources. These advantages make the “aluminum foil lunch box†a preferred alternative to plastic lunch boxes. In addition, the "aluminum foil lunch box" is also characterized by a higher recycling rate, which has a very positive significance for saving resources and reducing environmental pollution. "Circulating applications" is a valuable feature of "aluminum". According to reports, aluminum can be recycled up to 25 times, and the service life can be as long as two to three hundred years, and the production of recycled aluminum can also save a lot of energy. Each ton of recycled aluminum produces only 5% of the energy used to produce per ton of electrolytic aluminum. At the same time, carbon dioxide emissions are 91% less than the production of primary aluminum from hydropower and 97% less than the production of primary aluminum from fuel. In addition, compared to the "geographical changes" caused by "white pollution", aluminum lunch boxes can be weathered in the soil for two to three years, and they will not cause continuous damage to the land and change the nature of implants. The difficulty of "aluminum foil lunch box" promotion The benefits of “aluminum foil lunch boxes†to people’s lives and the environment are obvious, but this lunch box is still in a “favorable†position. The main reasons are: firstly, the price and cost are slightly higher than the one-time plastic lunch boxes; second, the recovery problem, the recycling channels are not smooth, and the catering companies cannot understand the whereabouts of aluminum product recycling, and cannot obtain subsidies from recycled aluminum. It made most catering companies give up using aluminum foil lunch boxes. The third is the problem of ideas. Although the "aluminum foil lunch box" has many advantages. However, many companies lack understanding of aluminum product lunch boxes, deep-rooted traditional spending habits and price-sensitive features, but also to "aluminum foil lunch box" promotion is a bit difficult. When "aluminum foil lunch box" was promoted In recent years, with the improvement of the people's living standards and public awareness of environmental protection, health habits and the enhancement of civilized consumption habits, it has provided the necessary material basis and public opinion environment for promoting the promotion of “aluminum foil lunch boxesâ€. Relevant units hope to attract more fast food delivery units through the platform and “aluminum foil lunch boxes†production companies to work together to use green lunch boxes to build a “low-carbon†life. They also hope to increase people’s “white pollution†through the media’s publicity and education. "Hazard awareness, change the environmental awareness of the entire society, guide people to develop good health habits and civilized consumption habits, universal use of "aluminum foil lunch boxes" to build a better home.
