Ltd. is yet another mold maker from Taizhou, China’s “Mold Town.” But it’s one of the few companies there that makes highend molds for thin-wall packaging and offers the complete in-moldlabeling system, the company said. In an interview at NPE2012, sales manger Ariel Jiang shared some unique product and market insights. The exporter expects to grow its sales by 20 percent this year. “My observation is that the U.S. market is not at the same level as Europe, in terms of the market understanding and growth of thin-wall packaging,” Jiang said. That might explain why the U.S. represents a mere 8 percent of Yuanda’s sales. Until five years ago, Yuanda was making large molds for crates, outdoor furniture, and consumer products. The company decided to take a more specialized direction. Today it makes molds for thin-wall IML food containers and paint/coating containers. About 70 percent of the products are shipped to Europe. “Maybe it’s just the lifestyle and social habits in the U.S.,” she said. “Maybe American consumers prefer paper cups and have the misconception that paper is more sustainable than plastic cups. Maybe there are plenty of trees here for making paper, very different from Europe or China.” Interestingly enough, she mentioned warming demand for thinwall packaging in less developed economies such as India. “It’s actually simple. With the environmental pollution and overall sanitation level there, the rising middle class consumers demand better packaged food and drinks to ensure safety. That’s where thin-wall packaging comes in.” Yuanda reports annual sales of 30 million yuan ($5 million) on the mold making side and about the same amount for the molding unit. It employs more than 120.  http://www.dow.com/ecolibrium http://www.dow.com/ecolibrium
