Green logistics keeps hanging but it hurts your "lip"

[Chinese Packaging Network News] Recently, a "courier-packed women more than women" "mouth courier" after the mouth mouth pus ulceration," the news caused widespread social debate. Reported that due to the use of "back materials" production, all types of courier packaging plastic bags on the market may remain a large number of harmful substances.

After a woman in Xiamen shreds her courier bags, small red eyes appear in her mouth and her pus and ulcers are shed. Doctor: "The bacteria on a courier package are sometimes much larger than the toilet lid and even equal to the trash."

Xiao Bian, I see here, I feel that the entire people are not good ... ... Today, China is not green development, green economy as a new driving force for economic growth? Why "Courier Hazard" is still around us.

Moreover, not long ago, the State Post Bureau also introduced the “Implementation Plan for Promoting the Green Packing Work of the Express Delivery Industry” to plan the green packaging work of the express delivery industry, improve the efficiency of resource utilization in the field of express mail packaging, reduce the consumption of packaging, and reduce environmental pollution. Why can such a chilling thing happen?

Speaking of the courier, the e-commerce provider, Taobao, Jingdong, Suning, etc.

Today, the e-commerce, logistics, and express delivery industries are developing so rapidly that e-commerce and express delivery companies really need to reflect and act! Let's take a look at the "green" behavior of each of them recently and in the past.

Jingdong-starts the green energy equipment war

It is reported that before Jingdong, in order to practice green packaging, the company has made clear provisions in the use of tape, for example, packaging bags, express envelope packaging does not use tape, carton packaging is the most used tape, in order to save tape, Small carton tape sealed "one", large carton sealed "Cross."

At the same time, a few days ago, Jingdong's first batch of new energy logistics vehicles have been officially operated in Beijing and Shanghai. Jingdong Express also opened the "zero emissions" era.

The relevant person in charge of the distribution department of Jingdong Mall stated that Jingdong currently has introduced the first batch of 40 new energy vehicles. In the same period, the logistics vehicle quick charging station of Beijing Jingdong Sorting Center, which was constructed by Polyelectric Technology, was officially put into use.

Compared with traditional fuel trucks, the introduction of new energy vehicles can effectively reduce logistics costs. On the one hand, the cost of new energy vehicles is relatively low, and the 100 kilometer-km electricity rate measured in the early stage of use is more than 30 yuan, which is 100 kilometers less than that of fuel trucks. More than 20 yuan.

If the use of peak power and low-cost electricity tariffs is calculated according to the national grid power supply, the cost of the vehicle can be further reduced by changing the main charge time of the vehicle to 10:00 pm. On the other hand, the purchase of new energy vehicles can enjoy relevant state and local subsidy policies and effectively reduce the burden on enterprises.

It can be seen that the introduction of new energy trucks has obvious environmental and economic advantages over traditional fuel vehicles.

Rookie - Calling for Buyers to Participate in Green Logistics

“Environmental protection is one of the trends in the future logistics industry.” At the Global Smart Logistics Summit held on June 13, Alibaba Group CEO Zhang Yong, the chairman of Cainiao Network once again mentioned green logistics.

Xiao Bian noted that Ma Yun, chairman of the board of directors of Alibaba Group, disclosed in a public speech in April this year that "Ali is developing a 'green logistics' standard." According to the rookie network, it was revealed at the end of April that it would try a reusable safe plastic material green box at the end of April to gradually replace the express carton.

At the Global Smart Logistics Summit on June 13th, Cainiao Network did not disclose specific trials of environmental protection courier box, but made a broader scope for green logistics: Leading a green coalition and cooperating with 25 major logistics companies to promote logistics The industry is low-emission, pollution-free, and can be recycled. By 2020, it will strive to achieve a reduction of 3.62 million tons of total carbon emissions in the industry, and promises to replace 50% of packaging materials with 100% biodegradable green packaging materials.

SF - push EPP circulation incubator

Big foods and medicines are inseparable from cold chain transportation. Packaging technology is naturally high quality for Shunfeng, a high-quality express delivery company. In addition, according to Xiao Bian, it is known that SF Express currently focuses not only on express package quality, but also on green and environmental protection.

Green logistics has always been "mouth", but it hurts your "lip"

"Shunfeng uses the EPP circulation incubator. EPP is a food-grade insulation material, which is the baby's pacifier material." Zhou Ninghui, head of the Hong Kong-based port channel group of the Shunfeng Refrigeration Business Unit, previously had full media and modernity for the first logistics company. Logistics reporter (WeChat: cn156news) reporter said.

Where is the cycle? “Cyclicality is mainly embodied in our EPP circulating incubator, which can take advantage of SF’s strong network. When the delivery courier delivers the goods to the customer, they can take the box back for cleaning and drying, so that they can be reused. This brings great benefits to the environment of the entire society.” Zhou Ninghui stressed. In this way, the past practice of using foam boxes and ice cubes for single use and environmental protection was eliminated.

No. 1 Shop - "1 Green Carton Recycling" Plan

As early as 2014, No. 1 Store officially launched the “1 Green Carton Recycling” program, which encourages users to participate in the recycling and recycling of express cartons through reward points.

According to the introduction, after the user signs the No. 1 shop self-order parcel, the empty cartons are handed over to the No. 1 store delivery staff, which means that they are involved in a carton recycling activity. For every carton you collect, you will receive 50 points for Shop #1. Points can be used for redemption of goods, participation in sweepstakes, redemption of deductions, etc.

As can be seen from the No. 1 store points mall, the exchange of merchandise categories and brands is also more abundant. Currently, the program covers the self-delivery areas of No. 1 stores in nearly 20 cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.

Dangdang - Launched starch-based biodegradable environmental protection bags

In 2014, Dangdang.com took the lead in the introduction of starch-based biodegradable environmental protection packaging bags, which saved more than 70% of oil resources compared to traditional packaging bags. Dangdang.com announced that it was the first to promote the use of starch-based biodegradable environmental protection bags in the industry, responding to "declaration of war on pollution" with practical actions.

The packaging bags used by DangDang.com are starch-based plastics based on corn starch, which have reached the national environmental protection certification standards and EU standards. Most of them can be naturally degraded in the soil after 4 months, and the environmental pollution is small. Compared to traditional plastic bags, it can save 70% of oil energy consumption.

Shentong - calcium carbonate as the main component packaging bag

STO also invested 10 million yuan in May 2013 and successfully developed a new type of environmentally friendly packaging bag. This kind of bag is mainly made of calcium carbonate, and only a proper amount of polyethylene is added during the production process.

"Without a piece of paper, without a drop of water, no logging, it is very environmentally friendly and energy-saving," said Yu Haomin, the person in charge of the project.

Xiaobian’s reflections

Although companies continue to make efforts for green packaging, e-commerce and express delivery companies have also launched green express courier packaging, but the current effect is indeed not obvious, and we did not see e-commerce, courier universal use of express environmental protection packaging, on the market The courier junk is still banned repeatedly. In fact, this is not very difficult for the express delivery industry.
