Plastic products were first born in the early 20th century. The first synthetic resin in human history was born and realized industrial production, which has opened the prelude to the development of artificial synthetic resin and plastic processing industry. In the 1930s, the industrial production of PVC, PS, PA and other resins was completed, and then petrochemical products gradually became the main source of raw materials for the production of synthetic resins. The invention of catalysts and the development and synthesis of engineering plastics created the rapid development of the plastic products processing industry. Conditions. Plastic products have become an indispensable and important part of people's lives. With the development of household appliances, automobiles, engineering, construction, real estate industries and other industries, the plastic wiring equipment industry has gradually become an important branch in the plastic products processing industry, especially Nylon cable ties have become a sub-sector in the plastic wiring equipment industry that has developed rapidly and has great development potential after being upgraded through modification technology.

★ Analysis of the output of China's plastic products: In 2017, the output of China's plastic products was 7.515 million tons ★

According to the latest statistical data from the National Bureau of Statistics, China's output of plastic products in 2017 was 751.555 million tons, an increase of 3.4% year-on-year: of which, the output of primary forms of plastic in 2017 was 83.778 million tons, an increase of 4.5% year-on-year; the output of synthetic rubber was 578.7 10,000 tons, an increase of 4.0% year-on-year.

★ Import and export analysis of Chinese plastic products: In 2017, China exported 11.68 million tons of plastic products and imported 28.68 million tons of primary-shaped plastics ★

Customs statistics show that in 2017, China exported 11.68 million tons of plastic products, an increase of 12.2% year-on-year, and the export value was 262.79 billion yuan, an increase of 11.6% year-on-year; China imported 28.68 million tons of primary-shaped plastics in 2017, an increase of 11.5% year-on-year. The amount was 48.507 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 17.0%. As all provinces and cities in China begin to collect environmental taxes since January 1, 2018, and this year, plastic import approvals have fallen sharply. It is expected that the import of plastics in primary shapes will increase significantly this year, and the unit price of imports will increase more than 2017. After a long time of rebalancing, the unit price of imports will drop.

★ Prospects of China's plastic products market: The rapid growth of domestic demand will promote the development of general plastic manufacturing  ★

With the acceleration of the construction of a new socialist countryside and the process of urbanization, China's urbanization rate has increased, and the rapid increase in demand for a series of plastic products such as plastic pipes, profiles, artificial leather, and synthetic leather has improved the ability of technological innovation It will promote the development of the general plastics manufacturing industry, technological innovation and system management innovation will greatly stimulate market vitality; the state-owned shareholding system transformation, the rise of the private economy, through the new capital operation and resource allocation adjustment will form the driving force for enterprise development; domestic demand for the plastic economy The role of growth is increasing, adding new market space for the development of China ’s general plastics; the country ’s decision on agricultural development, strengthening the urbanization process, revitalizing the old industrial bases in Northeast China, and developing the western region and other strategies to promote the plastic industry In the future, the strategic shift will gradually develop from the two delta regions to the central region, and at the same time realize a regional strategic transformation to promote the development of general plastics. In 2017, the revenue scale of China's plastic product manufacturing market reached 2.44 trillion yuan. As the plastic industry gradually matures and the precision of plastic products improves, it is expected that the revenue scale of China's plastic product manufacturing market will reach 3.29 trillion yuan in 2023.
