01 Diversified Market & Innovative Drivers
In recent years, the drinkware market has been growing, driven by improvements in living standards, increased consumer health awareness, and product innovation. As seasons change, so does the product line in the drinkware industry. In China, plastic cups dominate the market in spring and summer, while thermal cups are more popular in autumn and winter. The domestic market’s demand is becoming increasingly diversified.
Additionally, innovation and quality improvement have positioned China as a major global producer in the drinkware industry, with rapid growth in both export volumes and overseas demand for various drinkware items.
02 New Demands & New Challenges
With the diversification of market demand, drinkware products have seen innovations in materials, design, and functionality to meet different consumer needs. The injection molding production of drinkware components faces several challenges, requiring higher standards for injection molding technology:
Material Selection: Tritan is currently the preferred material in the drinkware industry due to its safety, odor-lessness, and high transparency. However, Tritan hygroscopic nature imposes strict requirements on the injection molding process. Its high viscosity necessitates a specially designed screw to ensure optimal material plasticization during the molding process.
Precision Requirements: Thermal cups, which often use a double-layer structure to create a vacuum insulation layer between the inner and outer layers, require precise control of wall thickness during injection molding. This ensures the integrity and uniformity of the vacuum layer and guarantees the perfect fit of seals for optimal insulation.
Precision Injection Molding: High standards for the appearance and details of drinkware necessitate precise control of product dimensions and surface quality during injection molding, avoiding issues like burrs, shrinkage, and deformation. For lids, surface quality must be flawless, requiring powerful injection and holding pressure capabilities from the injection molding machine.
