Degradable plastics industry will receive national policy support

According to an authoritative source in the industry on April 26, the relevant supportive policies for degradable plastics are expected to be introduced in the second half of the year. The planned support includes bio-based materials and fully degradable materials. Support measures include VAT refund, tax reduction, and key projects. Purchase and so on. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has handed over the relevant policy documents to the relevant ministries and commissions such as the Ministry of Housing and Construction for the countersigning. Industry insiders expect that the policy will be beneficial to companies listed in the degradable plastics industry.

During the "**" period this year, the CPPCC National Committee member Yang Lan submitted the "Proposal on the Legislation of Biodegradable Plastic Garbage Bags," and proposed legislation to implement biodegradable plastic garbage bags. All cities and towns implement a waste classification system, and kitchen waste must be certified and used. Legally identified biodegradable plastic garbage bags. The related policies proposed by the relevant state agencies this time are the responses to the suggestions of the CPPCC members.

External storage management reform release signal experts said that the economy can withstand 6% inflation Chen Guang 9 million donations can not verify the real cause of Guangning's illegal aluminum gray plant to bring out the abnormal interest chain exposure ten times the difference in vegetable prices in different places and News News Center Editors of the business community believe that the demand for degradable plastics is huge due to the sound environmental laws and regulations in some developed countries. At present, the conditions for the promotion of degradable plastic products in China have also matured. The main problem is the lack of policy support. The production cost of degradable plastics is higher than that of traditional polyolefin plastics, so there is no competitive advantage. If policy support is obtained, the domestic degradable plastics market will soon open.

The lack of classification of refuse is an important factor that restricts the promotion of degradable plastics in the domestic market. The executive meeting of the State Council held on March 23 proposed that by 2015, 50% of the district-based cities have initially achieved the classification and collection and treatment of food waste. Business people believe that garbage classification will inevitably involve the issue of plastic bags used by different types of waste, and the promotion of degradable plastics will be taken seriously at the national level.

At present, the promotion of the use of degradable plastics has received attention from all over the country. Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hainan and other places are piloting garbage classification. Xinjiang, Northeast China, and Yunnan are still piloting the use of biodegradable agricultural plastic film. Yunnan will also legislate to prohibit the production and sale of plastic shopping bags. The relevant draft has been announced.

For the market space of degradable plastics, experts believe that the prospects for the use of degradable plastics in the fields of garbage bags, plastic film, and shopping bags are relatively good. It is conservatively estimated that there will be 3 million tons of demand in China in the future, compared with only 30,000 tons in sales last year. . In the current domestic 200,000-300,000 tons of garbage bags, more than 100,000 tons can use degradable materials. The market for PBS and PBAT that are suitable for blown film in degradable materials is relatively large. The listed companies involved include Xinfu Pharmaceutical (002019, stocks), and blonde hair technology.

It is understood that Xinfu Pharmaceutical currently has a production capacity of 3,000 tons of degradable plastics. In the first half of the year, the 10,000-ton project will be launched. It is expected to expand to 20,000 tons in the future. It is not technically difficult. The National Development and Reform Commission will go to the company to accept the project in the near future.

Blonde Technology has a 1,000-ton pilot line in Mianyang, and its 20,000-ton project at Zhuhai Base is expected to reach volume production in May. Both companies currently produce petroleum-based materials that can be switched to bio-based materials in the future.
