Laminated Bag Paper Bag Innovation Material Revealed: Guangdong Guowei Guanli New Materials Co., Ltd.'s Breakthrough in Carbon Reduction Technology

In the global carbon reduction trend, innovation in packaging materials has become a key factor for companies to achieve environmental sustainability. Guangdong Guowei Guanli New Materials Co., Ltd., with 16 years of experience in the packaging industry, has developed laminated paper bags using breakthrough material composite technology. These bags retain their functional properties while significantly reducing carbon emissions, providing a highly competitive solution for ‘replacing plastic with paper.’

 

Multi-layer Composite Technology: A Precise Balance of Functionality and Environmental Sustainability

Guowei Guanli's laminated paper bags break through the limitations of traditional composite processes by adopting a gradient composite solution combining ‘paper-based substrate + functional film.’ The outer layer uses high-strength paper made from a blend of 30% bamboo pulp fibre and 70% wood pulp. The middle layer incorporates a nano-level breathable membrane, while the inner layer is composite with different functional materials depending on the application — food-grade scenarios use biodegradable PBAT film, while industrial scenarios use modified PE film. This structure maintains a paper content of over 65%, reducing carbon emissions by 58% compared to fully plastic composite bags, while meeting core requirements such as moisture resistance, oil resistance, and puncture resistance.

 

A certain baking brand adopted this laminated bag for cookie packaging, resolving the moisture absorption issues of traditional paper bags. The product's shelf life was extended from 30 days to 60 days, and after disposal, the packaging can be separated via hot water immersion, achieving a 90% paper material recycling rate. For electronic product packaging needs, Guowei Guanli incorporates an anti-static coating into the composite layer. After a certain headphone brand adopted this solution, the packaging achieved anti-static performance compliant with the ANSI/ESD S20.20 standard, while reducing weight by 42% compared to traditional plastic anti-static bags and lowering logistics costs by 18%.

 

Carbon Reduction Technology: Full-chain Innovation from Production to Recycling

Technological innovation in the production process is the core of carbon reduction. Guowei Guanli's independently developed solvent-free composite process replaces traditional solvent-based adhesives, eliminating 98% of volatile organic compound emissions, with a single production line reducing carbon emissions by 1,200 tonnes annually. Through an energy cascading utilisation system, the residual heat generated during the lamination process is used for paper preheating, reducing energy consumption per unit product by 23%. A beverage company adopting its laminated bag packaging directly met the associated carbon footprint certification criteria.

​

The establishment of a recycling system extends the carbon reduction effects. The composite layers of laminated bag paper bags are designed to be ‘separable and recyclable’ through material selection. Consumers can simply tear along the pre-set tear lines to separate the paper and film, then dispose of them in the corresponding recycling channels. The closed-loop system established by Guowei Guanli in collaboration with recycling companies has increased the material recycling rate of composite paper bags to 75%, 30 percentage points higher than the industry average. After a certain nut brand joined this system, its annual packaging recycling and processing costs decreased by 450,000 yuan, while also receiving carbon credit rewards.

Industry Adaptability: Multi-scenario Carbon Reduction Practice Cases

In the food preservation sector, laminated bags and aluminium foil bags complement each other. A meat processing company adopted a composite structure of ‘paper outer layer + aluminium foil inner layer,’ retaining the barrier properties of aluminium foil to extend the cold chain shelf life to 21 days while increasing the paper content in the packaging to 55%, reducing carbon emissions by 40% compared to all-aluminium foil packaging. When paired with Sealable Paper Bags featuring a self-sealing design, the post-opening shelf life of family-sized steak packages increased by 3 times, with user satisfaction reaching 96%.

 

In industrial packaging applications, laminated bags demonstrate superior load-bearing performance. By optimising the orientation of paper fibres, a 5-layer composite bag achieves a load-bearing capacity of 25 kilograms. A chemical company used this packaging for powdered raw materials, replacing traditional plastic woven bags, reducing packaging volume by 35% per shipment. Additionally, due to its foldable design, the cost of transporting empty bags for recycling decreased by 60%. Combined with the upright structure of stand-up pouches, a paint brand achieved a convenient ‘open and use, seal the remainder’ experience, reducing can waste by 72%.

 

The practices of a certain pet food brand are more representative. The laminated paper bags they use feature a ‘paper outer layer + waterproof membrane inner layer’ structure, which not only meets FDA food contact certification standards but also reduces the packaging's carbon footprint by 52% compared to plastic packaging. After launching, the environmentally friendly attributes of the packaging gained favour among young consumers, resulting in a 28% quarterly increase in sales. This dual effect of ‘technological carbon reduction + market value enhancement’ is precisely the value of Guowei Guanli's material innovation.

​

From material formulation to production processes, from product design to recycling systems, Guowei Guanli's laminated paper bags redefine environmental standards for composite packaging through comprehensive carbon reduction technology across the entire supply chain. This product, the result of 16 years of R&D, demonstrates that high performance and low emissions are not mutually exclusive—they are achievable through technological innovation. It provides a replicable packaging solution for green transformation across industries.
