Qianyi Industry Visit in June: Learning from Advanced Peers for EU‑Compliant New Paper‑Material R&D

Deep Dive Into Paper‑Product R&D And Peer Benchmarking

Global market demand for sustainable single‑use paper‑based goods keeps rising, while overseas markets especially the European Union keep tightening environmental requirements for disposable packaging. To keep pace with fast‑changing regulatory updates and industry technical progress, Qianyi dispatched core R&D, production and quality‑control team members on a special industry tour during June.

The team paid field visits to professional paper‑product research centers and benchmark advanced peer manufacturing factories. Our staff observed complete production workflows, raw‑material screening procedures, performance test laboratories and finished‑product evaluation systems. By exchanging technical insights with industry experts, we analyzed existing pain‑points of current paper‑based products, including water‑resistance limitations, degradation performance gaps and compliance risks for cross‑border export.

Translate Field Insights Into Internal New‑Material R&D

This June on‑site investigation brought abundant first‑hand industry information back to Qianyi. Combining real‑world feedback from European clients and EU Single‑Use Plastics Directive standards, our R&D department has accelerated the research work for brand‑new eco‑friendly paper‑based materials.

Drawing on successful practices from outstanding peer manufacturers, our engineers focus on optimizing raw‑paper formulation, barrier property treatment and full‑cycle degradability. The project targets to solve common industry defects: poor wet‑strength performance, residual non‑degradable additives and complex certification barriers for EU import. Instead of simple material replacement, Qianyi focuses on balanced performance: food safety, practical using experience, full biodegradability and cross‑border regulatory compliance.

Meet Market Demands Under Strict EU Environmental Policies

Many paper‑based export suppliers are now confronted with higher thresholds brought by EU environmental rules. Conventional paper items containing plastic additives may fall under regulatory restrictions and bring compliance risks for importers. Real‑plastic‑free paper materials become a core competitive point for serving European foodservice and retail partners.

By learning externally and iterating internally, Qianyi aims to develop new‑generation paper‑based solutions that satisfy local EU certification requirements. Once technical milestones are achieved, these new materials will be applied across our product portfolio such as paper straws, paper cups and paper food containers, helping overseas customers reduce policy risks and obtain more competitive green product options.

Open‑Minded Learning Drives Continuous Technical Upgrade

Technological progress cannot happen behind closed doors. This June industry visit embodies Qianyi’s open‑minded R&D philosophy: continuously benchmark top‑level industry resources, absorb external experience, and convert external insights into independent innovation capability inside the enterprise.

Moving forward, Qianyi will keep investing in green material research, carry out repeated lab testing and sample verification. We will closely track updates of global environmental policies, and strive to launch market‑ready compliant new‑material products to support global partners on the journey toward low‑carbon and circular‑economy development.
