  During the Mid-Autumn Festival, eating moon cakes is indispensable.

A few days ago, the National Development and Reform Commission and other departments have made clear requirements for moon cake packaging.

In the past few days, the reporter visited many markets and saw that this year's moon cakes are mostly "lightly packed", and green, low-carbon and reusable packaging has become the mainstream.

  The newly released new moon cake packaging regulations clearly require that the number of packaging layers for moon cakes should not exceed three layers, and should not be replaced with other products, and the packaging materials should not use precious metals and mahogany materials.

The reporter visited some shopping malls and supermarkets in Beijing, Henan, Shandong and other places and saw that this year's mooncake gift boxes basically meet this standard, and most of them are simple in style and mostly in single-layer packaging.

In the past, there were only a few moon cakes in the large moon cake box, which was undoubtedly a waste. Now the moon cake box is more streamlined than before, and there are more moon cakes in it.

All our packaging is also very compact, with no more than 30% void rate.

The concept is to light packaging, focus on products, and focus on culture.

  While the mooncake packaging is "slim down", efforts are also being made on the secondary use.

A staff member of this mall in Shandong told reporters that during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, more than half of the moon cakes they sell have outer packaging that can be used twice, and they are also more popular than ordinary moon cakes.

After simple folding, the outer packaging of this mooncake can be turned into a sundries storage box, a stationery box or a jewelry box.

Mooncake prices are more affordable

  After removing the cumbersome packaging, the price of moon cakes is more affordable.

The reporter visited many markets and learned that the price of this year's gift box mooncakes is generally between 60 yuan and 300 yuan, and the price of bulk mooncakes is between ten and twenty yuan per catty.

According to data from the e-commerce platform, during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, mooncake gift boxes with a price of about 200 yuan are the most popular.

  Not only is the packaging simpler and greener, the reporter found in the interview that whether it is moon cake fillings or Mid-Autumn Festival gift boxes for visiting relatives and friends, everyone also pays more attention to returning to tradition and advocating the concept of health.

  In the Mid-Autumn Festival gift sales area of ​​a large chain supermarket in Zhengzhou, Henan, the reporter saw that festive gift boxes including moon cakes, red dates, nuts, etc., have become a hot spot for consumers to buy before the festival.
