Current Challenges
Waste disposal issues:
Paper packaging is often seen as a more environmentally friendly alternative to plastic, but disadvantages such as paper production consumption, paint and ink pollution, and high cost of paper packaging still pose significant challenges to the environment.
Resource Depletion:
Paper catering packaging requires a lot of wood, water and other energy, many of which are non-renewable. At the same time, the bleaching and processing of paper products usually use chemicals such as chlorine and dioxins. If used and managed improperly, these chemicals are not only harmful to health, but also difficult to decompose and cause harm to the environment.
Energy Consumption:
The main raw material for paper packaging is wood, especially wood pulp. In order to meet the growing demand for paper packaging, some countries and regions have overexploited forest resources, resulting in the destruction of forest ecosystems in many areas and the loss of biodiversity. This irresponsible resource exploitation not only affects the ecological balance, but also leads to land degradation and climate change.
Environmental Benefits Of Sustainable Disposable Tableware
Sustainable development has always been Uchampak's pursuit.
Uchampak's factory has passed the FSC forest environmental protection system certification. The raw materials are traceable and all the materials are from renewable forest resources, striving to promote global forest development.
We invested in laying 20,000 square meters of solar photovoltaic panels in the factory area, generating more than one million degrees of electricity annually. The clean energy generated can be used for the production and life of the factory. Giving priority to the use of clean energy is one of the important measures to protect the environment. At the same time, the factory area uses energy-saving LED light sources, which is more energy-saving and environmentally friendly.
It has obvious advantages in performance, environmental protection and price. We have also repeatedly improved machines and other production technologies in order to pursue the manufacture of a variety of more environmentally friendly and practical paper packaging products.
We're Doing The Work
Conventional water-based coated paper cups are made with a unique waterproof barrier coating, which reduces the materials needed. Each cup is leakproof and durable. Based on this, we developed a unique Meishi water-based coating. This coating is not only waterproof and oil-proof, but also biodegradable in a shorter time. And on the water-based coating, the required materials are further reduced, which further reduces the cost of making the cup.
Compostable paper product are environmentally friendly products made of biodegradable materials
The biodegradable coatings we commonly use are mostly PLA coatings and water-based coatings, but the prices of these two coatings are relatively expensive. In order to make the application of biodegradable coatings more extensive, we independently developed Mei's coating.
Research and Development
We not only conduct a lot of research and development in coating, but also invest a lot of efforts in the development of other products. We launched the second and third generation cup holders.
By improving the structure, we reduced the use of unnecessary materials, streamlined the structure while ensuring the hardness and stiffness required for normal use of the cup holder, making our cup holder more and more environmentally friendly. Our new product, the stretch paper plate, uses stretching technology to replace glue bonding, which not only makes the paper plate more environmentally friendly, but also healthier.
