February 12, 2019. The owner of the paper lunch box manufacturer said that disposable degradable plastic tableware has light/biodegradable EPS type, starch filled EPS type and light/biodegradable polypropylene type and other varieties. The light/biodegradable polypropylene tableware has better degradation performance and has certain production capacity.
By 2002, there had been more than 80 manufacturers in China, with an annual output of 3.5 billion and annual sales of 3 billion, accounting for 25.4% of the production and sales volume of disposable fast-food boxes, and half of the production capacity of 6 billion of this type of lunch boxes. In the past 6 years, as its cost performance cannot compete with polystyrene foamed plastic tableware, in order to reduce the cost, some manufacturers, regardless of the people's health, added CaCo3 and talc powder to the ingredients to make this kind of lunch box, which is now marked with the toxic food box logo. These fake and shoddy environmentally friendly food boxes can neither be degraded nor recycled. About 3.4 billion environmentally friendly boxes were sold in 2002, accounting for only two-fifths of all polystyrene foamed plastic boxes sold. From the perspective of market economy, the disposable PS foamed fast food boxes are more cost-effective than all kinds of environmentally friendly food boxes.
From the perspective of scientific development and circular economy, PS foamed fast food box is also an excellent product. Its consumption of raw materials, low energy, less waste production. Through forced recycling, renewable granulation, production of hard plastic low-grade products and coatings, adhesives, paints, building materials, packaging products, daily necessities and other renewable resources. Energy can be recovered by incineration or used as a substrate for soilless cultivation. It not only solves the white visual pollution, but also solves the pollution to the environment and other potential hazards. From the perspective of the life cycle evaluation of disposable quick-service tableware, the PS foaming tableware conforms to the 3R principle of circular economy and the production material consumption, waste less, energy saving and pollution-free determined by LCA evaluation criteria. There is no harm to human health during the use of the product; A definition of green packaging in which the waste of a product can be recycled or easily degraded after use.
In accordance with the principle of scientific and reasonable decision-making, the National Development and Reform Commission has listened to the different opinions of all relevant parties on the issue of disposable foamed plastic tableware for many times, and conducted a serious investigation and study. At the same time, we commissioned the Food Safety Institute of The Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention to do the toxicity experiment according to the relevant national standards.
The experimental results show that the disposable foamed plastic tableware can meet the requirements of the National Hygienic Standard for Polystyrene resin for food packaging. Comprehensive all aspects of the situation, there are four basic views of the National Development and Reform Commission: one is in accordance with the national standard [food packing polystyrene resin health standard (GB9692 ~ 1988), food packing polystyrene molding product health standard (GB9689 ~ 1988)] in the production of disposable polystyrene foamed plastic tableware reasonable use cases, no security issues. Second, disposable polystyrene foamed plastic tableware can be recycled, using recycled raw materials can be prepared a variety of other products, to achieve waste recycling, in line with the direction of resource conservation.
