A waste recycling station on Binjiang East Road in Guangzhou, the boss made it clear that "welcome to the bottle to sell." He said that the price of the Hennessy XO bottle with 3 pounds of bottle is 80 yuan and that of 1.4 pounds is 50 yuan. "Be sure to have a bottle cap."
Recently, the Provincial People's Congress representative Zhu Lieyu and others submitted proposals on the "Regulations on the Administration of Guangdong Province's Discarded Packaging for Precious Goods" and suggested that legislation be adopted to prevent counterfeit goods from being used by counterfeiters.
Regulatory vacuum of luxury goods waste packaging
According to the motion, at present, in the waste recycling industry, some people specialize in the recovery of expensive wine bottles, and sell the recovered bottles to those who manufacture and sell fake wine, which directly disrupts the normal order of the market economy. The recycling of bottles is only the tip of the iceberg of the recycling of valuable waste packaging products. At present, China has no special regulations on the management of discarded packaging for expensive commodities. The recycling of expensive waste packaging products is basically in a regulatory vacuum. In Guangdong, where the commodity economy is highly developed, it is even more necessary to strengthen the management of discarded packaging for expensive goods and to prevent counterfeit goods from being used by counterfeit goods.
Zhu Lieyu said that specialists purchased expensive waste packaging materials at high prices and sold them to counterfeiters. The counterfeiters filled the packaging with counterfeit and inferior products, and put them on the market to sell as genuine products. This is the industrial chain of some counterfeit goods, and due to counterfeiting The outer packaging of goods is genuine, and it is difficult for ordinary consumers to distinguish. He said that in order to eradicate this black industrial chain, we must start from the source, that is, strengthen the management of waste packaging of expensive goods, and no longer allow the free circulation of valuable waste packaging products on the market.
Recommendation: Recycling by qualified companies
Zhu Lieyu said that at present, China does not have a special law for the management of discarded packaging for valuable commodities. There are two main laws concerning the management of packaging wastes: the Law on the Prevention and Control of Environmental Pollution Caused by Solid Waste and the Law on the Promotion of Cleaner Production, and Legislation The lack of one of the reasons for the regulatory vacuum.
In Zhu Liyu's proposed draft regulations, it is proposed that the disposal of valuable goods should be collectively approved by registered packaging companies that have the qualification for the recycling of valuable waste packaging materials. Any other entity or individual must not recycle valuable commodity waste packaging. Encourage hotels and restaurants and other places to collect waste packaging materials for valuable commodities, and encourage organizations and individuals to take the valuable waste packaging products to the packaging recycling enterprise recycling network.
The market visited: Mr. Xu of a wine store in Dongpo, Tianhe District, said that the high-end foreign wine bottle recycler “is 100% sold for counterfeitingâ€. The recycling price of Hennessy XO bottles at a waste collection station on Binjiang Road East is 80 yuan, and 1.4 kg is 50 yuan.
The representative suggested that the regulations stipulate that the waste packaging materials of luxury goods shall be uniformly responsible for the packaging material recovery enterprises that have been approved for registration and have the qualifications for the recycling of valuable waste packaging materials. No other entity or individual may collect the waste packaging materials of luxury goods without authorization.
Recycling old wine bottle profits more than double
Mr. Xu, a liquor store in Dongpu, Tianhe District, said that high-end wine bottle recyclers “are 100% sold for counterfeitingâ€. He said that in the fake wine manufacturing chain, the anti-counterfeiting marks of wine bottles and wine lids are the most difficult to counterfeit, so the underground manufacturers did not hesitate to purchase the bottles. The reason why the Recycle Bin is keen on this trip is its huge profit margin. Mr. Xu said that similar to the 3 pounds of Hennessy XO bottles, the recycling price for waste products is 80 yuan, and the price for underground factories is 200 yuan. The profit rate is more than 200%.
“Underground factories are no loss. Buying a bottle for more than 200 yuan and then pouring in more than 100 yuan of free-living wine can sell more than 1,000 yuan!†Mr. Xu said that there is an unwritten tacit agreement in the regular liquor line in Guangzhou. All consciously handle the empty bottle of wine in private. "If you are greedy and sold cheaply, you are encouraged to drink fake wine, and you have your own rice bowl."
A surnamed Zhang wine merchant in the Milky Way said that he mainly collected Maotai bottles. “500 yuan in 30 years, 100 yuan in 15 years, ordinary Moutai bottles will not be accepted.†He said that if someone had a horse or Louis Vuitton, Hennessy Richards, Royal Salute, Lafite and other wine bottles or wine boxes, they could also sell. A good price.
