The Power of Change--M. Success Media Integrated and Updated, ECPAKLOG 2017 Debuted in Shanghai in August 2017

According to the statistics in June 2016 by National Bureau of Statistics, the national online retail sales in January-May, 2016 reached CNY 1.8089 trillion, increased by 27.7% on a YOY basis. Among them, online retail sales of physical commodities increased by 25.9%, reaching CNY 1.4633 trillion and amounting for 11.3% of the gross retail sales of the social consumer goods. Among all the physical gods sold in China, one tenth was sold via network platforms. With the fast-growing e-commerce, the packages for e-commerce logistics have shown explosive growth. According to statistics, packages delivered in 2015 exceeded 20.6 billion, most of which were from e-commerce logistics. However, the fast growth in package logistics has also brought about many problems, such as leakage of daily chemicals, tainted odor of special foods such as durian and excessive zombie-package waste. These issues have made people aware that e-commerce package and logistics package have different requirements from the traditional channels. In the future, China’s e-commerce will grow at a scale of hundreds of millions and the market calls for improvement in e-commerce package to promote transactions and improve customer experience. Consequently, it poses an urgent demand for the e-commerce market to develop packaging and logistics technologies.   

E-commerce packaging pays more attention to personality, humanity and transport safety. Compared with traditional businesses, e-commerce narrows the space but accelerates the time for transactions. E-commerce packaging differs from traditional commodity packaging, firstly, in packaging design, where e-commerce packaging tends more to individualized sales experience and the safety in logistics transport; secondly, in high appeal for packaging standardization, where standardization for packaging specifications is beneficial for multimodal transport of logistics packages and improving delivery rate; thirdly, in higher attention to logistics transport risks whether for the internal or external packages, where packaging materials and types of packaging shall be taken into consideration as a whole; fourthly, in special requirements and urgency for packaging automation, where automation technology for e-commerce platform poses a fully new topic and many manually operated posts need automation solutions against the ever-increasing labor cost; fifthly, in massive e-commerce package wastes that have become a concern of the whole society, where eco-friendly and recyclable solutions are highly valued to alleviate the environmental burden from the packages throughout their lifecycle; sixthly, in packaging cost that is a topic much more discussed than that over traditional package, where reduction and control techniques for comprehensive packaging and logistics cost will be the top trend for future development. Therefore, efficient and effective combination of packaging technology with logistics technology will provide strong support for the fast-growing e-commerce industry in China.

Against this backdrop, M. Success Media Group, as a far-sighted and leading authoritative media, has hosted high-level forums on e-commerce packaging development and organized business pairing activities for jd.com, amazon.cn, cainiao.com, sf-express.com and other customers since 2014, thus leading the new concepts and promoting industrial development.
