Today (April 6), the State Post Bureau held a routine press conference to interpret the "Management Measures for Express Mail Packaging". The Measures, which came into effect on March 12, are China's first special departmental regulations on the management of express mail packaging, clarifying the system design and provisions on three key issues: what package, how to package and how to manage mail express packages.

The Measures clarify the unified management responsibility of the headquarters of the delivery enterprises, and stipulate that the delivery enterprises should establish and improve the packaging management system, and the enterprises belonging to the trademark, brand name or delivery details sheet should implement unified management of the mail express packaging. The "Measures" also strengthen the source of mail express packaging management.

Encourage the use of packaging through green product certification

"Measures" also encourage delivery enterprises to purchase and use packaging through green product certification. At the same time, in view of the replacement of disposable plastic products, heavy metal content in packaging and benzene solvent residue control and other issues, clear corporate responsibility, strengthen the source control. We encourage delivery enterprises to establish and improve working mechanisms and recycling processes, and recycle packaging. Guan Aiguang said the State Post Bureau plans to organize special law enforcement inspections and strengthen supervision to ensure effective implementation of the Measures from April next year, which is the first anniversary of the effective implementation of the Measures.
