Aluminum foil paper is widely used, such as: aviation food packaging, ordinary meat packaging, cigarette packaging, etc. Relevant experts have divided it into more than 20 varieties according to its different application characteristics. Due to differences in economic development levels in different countries, there are also big differences in aluminum foil consumption structures. In developed countries in Europe and the United States, aluminum foil products used for packaging account for 70% of the total demand.
In the Chinese market, aluminum foil is mainly used as raw and auxiliary materials for industrial manufacturing, and packaging aluminum foil only accounts for 30% of the total domestic demand. Although the development of aluminum foil packaging is relatively late, the market is growing rapidly and the prospects are attracting attention.
Aluminum foil paper is quite prominent in construction applications. Pasting it on the surface of insulation materials makes it more convenient and clean during construction, and especially the aesthetics has reached a new level. However, the effects of different types of aluminum foil vary greatly. For example, fire-proof and ordinary aluminum foil are not of the same grade.
China’s aluminum foil production began in 1932, but it did not begin to develop rapidly until after the reform and opening up. After the 1990s, aluminum foil production has entered an important period. Not only has a large number of advanced equipment been introduced, but production management and technology development levels have also gradually moved towards modernization and internationalization.
