"Double 11" Express Box Recycling Reuse Two Cold

Recently, according to statistics, in from November 11th to 13th, the average daily delivery volume in Beijing area was nearly 6 million orders. According to the estimate of 0.2 kilograms per package, 1200 tons of packaging waste will be generated.

Huge quantity

Where to go? In the eighth years of "double 11", this is still a difficult problem.

More than half of consumers abandon express packaging

Tear the tape on the box, open the box, take out the bubble bag, take out a small box from the plastic bag, and finally see the perfume on the net.

On the two days, the "double 11" parcel arrived in the hands of consumers, and goods from all over the country and around the world were tightly wrapped.

When the "tied up" goods were removed, all kinds of "luxury packaging" became rubbish instantly.

The express box of down garment is flat type.

The box is relatively small, and it doesn't work at home. "

Liu, the public, said that the express boxes were not clean, and most of them were damaged when they were opened.

"Put some kitchen waste at the top and then throw it away together."

Reporters learned from several community waste recycling points that most of the express boxes were purchased from 0.5 yuan to 0.8 yuan per kilogram.

After being recovered, the recovered personnel will be sent to the packing point of the recycling company and then pported to the paper mill located in Tianjin and Hebei for reuse.

"In the recycling process, we usually need a series of processes such as sorting, removing impurity and screening."

China pulp and Paper Association official told reporters that at present, every 1 tons of waste paper can only produce 0.8 tons of recycled paper.

However, due to the fact that garbage classification is not ideal, a large number of cartons can not be recycled, and the cartons which can not be recycled can only be sent to the incineration plant for incineration.

A report released by the national development and Strategy Institute of Renmin University of China showed that in 2013, the recovery rate of paper resources in Beijing was only 25.32%.

According to the statistics in the industry, 55.6% of the consumers discarded the packages after they got the express.

Express box recycling reuse cold at both ends

The most ideal recycling mode for express delivery boxes is that the couriers are easy to recycle and reuse. After they are damaged, they can be recycled or burned.

In recent years, some enterprises have realized the environmental problems caused by the massive express delivery, and have launched on-site recycling services.

In 2014, shop No. 1 encouraged users to participate in "carton recycling" in the form of bonus points. Suning, Tmall supermarket and Jingdong also launched a similar express carton recycling plan.

However, from the implementation level, the recovery plan is not effective in the implementation process.

"Our daily necessities are often bought from Tmall supermarket, and never heard from the distribution staff that they can be recycled."

An online shopping man told reporters that when the courier arrived at the door, he checked the recipient's name and hurried away.

For the courier, there is no time to collect, no place to put, and the lack of power to recover, which is the reason why the recovery plan is hard to land.

At the end of June this year, Beijing post EMS also tested the water express packaging recycling service, taking the lead in the city's mailing business, which could be repeatedly used "green packaging".

But Zhang Ligang, head of EMS post office of Beijing post, said that for several months, the recovery rate of green express box was only 1%.

"Many recipients do not want to unseal the scene. We will not force you."

Zhang Ligang said that although the points had been exchanged for prizes to encourage recipients to deliver the parcels to the couriers, the benefits did not seem very attractive to consumers.

In view of the difficulties of courier companies struggling alone, some end service platforms begin to assume the role of express packaging recycling.

Reporters in the "near neighbor treasure" China Agricultural University store to see, in front of several rows of intelligent express cabinet, stands a green express discarding platform and a express recovery box.

The relevant person in charge said that at present, about 100 pieces of express cartons can be recovered every day, but the recovery rate is still very low compared with the total number of thousands of pieces of express delivery.

"It is mainly because we do not have this awareness. Many people will not send the boxes back after they have taken the courier."

Plastic express packaging is expected to be promoted.

In view of the problem of the recovery of express packaging, some developed countries have made long-term explorations.

For example, Germany has introduced a deposit for packaging. When purchasing goods, the commodity price includes the deposit of the package, and the deposit is refunded when the package is returned.

In Japan, a strict classified recovery system was established. The consumers classified the packaging waste, and the collection and pportation system was regularly collected and pferred to avoid the two pollution and ensure the efficiency of recycling.

In the field of domestic express delivery, the zipper type carton developed by the "one tear" company has appeared on the market. This box does not need adhesive tape, and has a zipper like seal at the top.

It is reported that the rookie network has begun to use this zipper type carton, and in some of the campus post station recovery plan.

Zhang Ligang believes that if we want to fundamentally solve the problem of express garbage, we need to establish a standardized packaging system and recycling system, so that the whole industry can participate in the green express operation.

When each courier company adopts a set of recovery standards, the courier company will say goodbye to the individual recycling test, and the delivery package of the consumers can be recovered by any courier.

At present, Beijing post EMS is working with R & D institutions to launch a plastic express delivery box which is more convenient to recycle and reuse. The material is both durable and durable, and easy to recycle and process the production line.

In August 2016, the State Post Office issued the "implementation plan for promoting the green packaging of express industry", and proposed that by 2020, the packaging materials with excessive toxic and hazardous substances should be basically eliminated, and basically become socialized.
