Market Prediction

Given its applications, according to researchandmarket.com, the global market for Ion Exchange Resins estimated at US$1.3 Billion in the year 2020, is projected to reach a revised size of US$1.6 Billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 2.9% over the analysis period 2020-2027.

Amidst the global pandemic of COVID-19, the growth of ion-exchange resin has been slowed down, however the scarcity of freshwater and rigorous regulations for water conservation is propelling the growth of the ion exchange resin market. Other factors affecting the market growth is the growing demand for ion exchange resins for the purification and softening of water applications across various end-use industries, including food & beverage, wastewater treatment, chemical processing, electronics, mining, power generation, pharmaceuticals, and others. It is argued that the pandemic will also evoke people’s awareness of personal hygiene. Hence, the market growth of ion-exchange resin will likely to increase annually in the coming years given its abilities in multiple purifications.

Packaging Problems and Solutions

The supply chain of the ion-exchange resin suggests that it goes on a journey from manufacturer to end users from which packaging plays a crucial role ensuring the quality and safety of the resin.

However, the intrinsic properties of ion-exchange resin have posed many challenges to the manufacturers as well as users. If packaging is damaged or left open and resins are exposed to the atmosphere, the resin can deteriorate through a combination of physical, chemical or biological contamination. No matter what type of resin, once the package is opened, the contents should be used as soon as possible, and unused resin should be resealed in a suitable, clean container. In the event of damage to bags, drums, kegs etc., every effort should be made to repair the damage to ensure the resin is not exposed in the atmosphere. Direct exposure under the sunlight also promotes oxidation, growth of bacteria and other unpleasant changes which causes unnecessary loss.

The abovementioned problems facing the storage and transportation of ion-exchange resin requested packaging to have better abilities to minimize the problems. As professional packaging producer based in China, we understand the mechanism of the production of ion-exchange resin and the problems emerged from it. we are offering packages with higher rate of moisture resistance up to 30% in comparison to other similar plastic packaging products. In addition, we also offer packages made from aluminium foil which can block out 100% percent of the sunlight (UV light) from entering inside the bag. This is a common solution in response to those products that are vulnerable to sunlight.

We have also applied unique three-layered co-extrusion technology that provide extra strength to the plastic film so that it can stand falling up to 3 meters, meanwhile, the three-layered film also contributes to make the film have better ability of blocking moisture, gases, dust and other forms of contamination.

Last but not least, every product need publicity as part of their brand building. In this case, our specially made film has better quality and possibility of printing. Namely, we are able to printing more than 16 colours without blurry images and misprints. Contact us now to get a sample of our many bag products. We are happy to discuss with you about your product and what we can do best protect your product during the transportation.
