Opportunities and Challenges for Packaging and Printing Industry (II)
Hong Kong's printing industry has risen to the top of Hong Kong's manufacturing industry in 1999. It has 3,800 printing companies, plus more than 5,000 related companies and 44,000 employees. In 1999, Hong Kong's printing output value reached 38 billion Hong Kong dollars.
China's printing and equipment equipment industry has not yet become an important pillar industry of the national economy. It is not yet an important part of the information industry. According to preliminary statistics, in 2000, the total output value of China's printing and equipment equipment industry was 150 billion yuan, accounting for 2.5% of the world's printing industry's total output value of 750 billion US dollars, accounting for 1.7% of the country's 2000 GDP (8940.4 billion yuan), accounting for the entire country. In 2000, the industrial added value (3957 billion yuan) was 3.7%.
(2) Excessive printing capacity in general, insufficient fine-grade printing capacity, and declining corporate profits. And regional development is extremely uneven.
Packaging and printing companies have many long-term losses or are at the edge of losses. According to a survey of 107 packaging and printing companies in 2000, 50 profit-making units (per capita taxation between 1,000 and 5,000 yuan) accounted for 47%, and 15 loss-making enterprises accounted for 14%, accounting for 61% of the total.
Regional development is extremely uneven. The development of the East, Central and West is uneven. According to relevant statistics in 1999, 10 provinces and municipalities accounted for 56% of the country's total area, 23% of the population, and the output value of the printing industry (books, packaging, newspapers, and other) accounted for only 16.3%. There is also a wide gap between the internal development of the eastern, central and western regions. For example, the output value of the printing industry in Guangdong accounted for 10.1% of the country's total output value and 75% of the total in South China; the output value of the printing industry in Shaanxi accounted for 7.1% of the country's total output value and 75.3% of the total in the northwestern region.
(3) Low labor productivity As domestic packaging and printing companies are restricted by factors such as scale, processing tasks, and management, labor productivity has a large gap with foreign countries.
China's packaging and printing companies currently have a total labor productivity of around 50,000 yuan, and 107 of them have a high rate of labor productivity in 2000, indicating that the average per capita is only 150,000 yuan.
Take Tianjin Global Magnetic Card Co., Ltd., which has the highest profits and taxes among packaging and printing companies in China, as an example. In 2000, the total profit and tax amounted to 247.37 million yuan, and the industrial output value was 41.063 million yuan, and the labor productivity of all employees was only 324,000 yuan.
In the same period, the total labor productivity of the Japanese printing industry was equivalent to RMB 1.41 million (1.66 million in Tokyo), which is 28 times that of China. If compared with the larger printing companies in Japan, the difference is even greater. Great disparity. For example, the total labor productivity of Da Nippon Printing Co., Ltd. is equivalent to RMB 6.46 million, that of Toppan Co. is 6.467 million, that of a common printing company is 3.2 million, and that of book printing companies is 3.67 million.
Taking the Hong Kong and Taiwan regions as an example, the total labor productivity of the Hong Kong region is 860,000 yuan and that of the Taiwan region is close to 1 million yuan.
The reasons for this situation are mainly the excess of general processing capacity, and the lack of high-end fine printing capabilities, resulting in under-performing tasks for most companies, resulting in unsatisfactory packaging and printing output.
(4) The gap in printing equipment is mainly the lack of functions, low level of automation and intelligent control, and poor stability and reliability. The supply and demand of middle- and low-grade products are unbalanced or oversupply, and high-end equipment still mainly depends on imports.
In 2001, China imported 1.37 billion U.S. dollars worth of printing equipment, an increase of 52% compared with 901.2 million yuan in 2000. In 2001, the export value of printing equipment was 29,642,400 U.S. dollars, which was 16.6% higher than the figure of 34.05 million U.S. dollars in 2000. However, the difference between the amount of imports and the amount of exports is very different, and the amount of imports is 30 times that of exports. In particular, the difference between multi-color offset printing presses and foreign countries is even greater. In the past three years, China imported offset printing machines with a total amount of US$ 4-600 million. According to statistics, in 2001, 645 multi-color sheet-fed offset presses were imported, and about 80 car production machines were imported. The market share of imported machines reached 90%.
In addition, if most of the market for mid-range flexographic and gravure printing machines is occupied by foreign equipment, digital printing machines have only just started to develop research in China. Currently, they all rely on imports. All these have seriously affected the technological transformation and development of the packaging and printing industry in China.
(5) The gap of printing equipment There are various kinds of printing equipment. The overall gap is incomplete varieties, and the product performance and quality are poor. The high-end equipment is still mainly imported, and some equipment is still blank in China.
Taking printing paper as an example, the output of paper and paperboard in China was 30.9 million tons in 2000, second only to the United States (35.5 million tons) and Japan (81.83 million tons), ranking third in the world, with more than 600 kinds of product varieties. However, the production of high-grade paper is small, and it still needs to import about 6 million tons of newsprint, coated paper, writing paper and white cardboard each year. Middle and low flexo plates can be produced domestically, and high-grade flexographic plates still need to be imported. According to statistics, the current domestic demand is 100,000 square meters, and about 90% needs to be imported.
The CTP plates required for direct plate making cannot be produced at present in China. All of them rely on imports. However, importing one CTP plate requires 90 yuan (excluding 40% of duties and VAT), while the price of a common PS in China Only 30 yuan. Due to the current high price of CTP plate, it seriously affects the application and promotion of direct plate making technology. (To be continued)
