Please briefly describe: the characteristics and manifestations of food packaging in China. You can write the relevant information and website. Urgent need, thank you! ! !

China people's outstanding feature in gift packaging is the use of auspicious patterns. On the gift packaging of traditional festivals such as Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, we can often see patterns such as "the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon" and "Four Happy People". On the package of gifts for blessing and birthday, we can often find patterns such as "turtle and crane" meaning "longevity", "heaven and earth" symbolizing "longevity", "fish" symbolizing "surplus" and "peony" symbolizing "wealth". China's traditional patterns are rich and colorful, usually taking natural images or traditional stories as the theme, and expressing people's good life with implied metaphors such as implication, symbol, borrowing and analogy.

Take pastry gift packaging as an example. At present, there are mainly:

1. Color-printed plastic film packaging: this is the mainstream of pastry packaging. This kind of packaging has the following characteristics: ① Beautiful color printing and attractive luster can beautify the display of shelves and induce people to buy. This is mainly due to the advanced color printing technology, so that the printed color printing film has a super-value aesthetic effect, which is more authentic, observable and attractive than the inner object. (2) Convenient consumption: it is convenient to eat when torn open, which is also an advantage of color printing plastic film packaging. As a leisure food for children and women, this packaging form is very popular. (2) keep clean, prevent pollution, a bag, can give people a sense of safety and hygiene. Therefore, this kind of packaging has always been a form that manufacturers and consumers are willing to accept, but the fly in the ointment is that the packaging is difficult to degrade, which is easy to form "white" pollution and is not conducive to environmental protection.

2. packaging of paper products: the advanced, safe and fast color printing plastic film packaging has had a great impact on the packaging of paper products, making the packaging of paper products change from the dominant position in the past to the subordinate position and maintain its own place in its own unique field. This unique field includes three aspects: ① outer packaging box (box), which can not be replaced by color printing plastic film, because the outer packaging box as a paper product has the functions of transportation, storage, placement and portability, as well as beautiful printing effect. Therefore, the packaging of paper products still plays an important role in pastry food. (2) High-grade pastry gift boxes must also be designed and printed by paper products, so as to enhance the grade, reflect the nobility of social status and complete the artistic reproduction. Have you noticed that on the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the mooncake gift boxes appearing in major shopping malls and supermarkets are magnificent, elegant and unique, and exquisite, all of which are completed by paper products. From this point of view, any metallic plastic or other packaging products can not replace the universal advantages of paper products. ② Low-grade and simple ordinary pastry packaging. For the sake of hygiene and convenience, generally, this kind of packaging has a simple small paper box, a simple piece of paper, a simple pattern printed casually, or no pattern printed, a cake wrapped up, picked up and left, which is as simple as that. This kind of packaging can be seen in rural street stalls or shopping malls with low consumption level, and there is still a certain market space.

3. packaging of craft decorations: this kind of packaging has gradually flourished in recent years with the development of economy, the improvement of people's living standards and the change of cultural needs. Its scope, in addition to drinks and other handicrafts, is also a prominent highlight in the pastry category. Especially during the Mid-Autumn Festival, as long as you are near the food store, it is not difficult to see all kinds of craft decorations packed with plastic products, bamboo weaving products, paper products, wood products and iron products, such as pagoda-shaped, Temple of Heaven-shaped, dragon boat-shaped, pavilion-shaped, clock-shaped, horse-shaped, the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon-shaped and so on. It is convenient for people to keep a handicraft for viewing after using cakes. This kind of packaging form, it should be said, is also a new family, a manifestation of culture and taste, and also a challenge and opportunity for packaging and decoration designers.

4. Packaging of plastics and other products. This kind of packaging of plastic products refers to a kind of hard plastic product packaging that can be distinguished from color printing films, plastic products (such as gift boxes) with transparent and opaque plastic packaging products and processed by art such as printing, and lined plastic boxes that play a supporting role. This kind of packaging fills the field of packaging products in a variety of ways and has the potential to grow. As other products, it mainly refers to some packaging products that are not commonly used but sometimes appear, such as tin products packaging, bamboo weaving, straw weaving process packaging, wood products packaging, lotus root leaves, corn leaves and other packaging materials (like zongzi, it has been completed by brown leaves for many years). These packages are mainly influenced and limited by resource conditions and specific folk culture. They are not the mainstream of pastry packages, but they have played a positive role in the aspects of green food, environmental protection, returning to nature, improving artistic grade and enriching packaging forms, and have great potential to be tapped.
