With the plastic packaging ban in the global market and the increase in consumers' awareness of environmental protection, the market needs for innovative plant fiber packaging has also been increasing.

While due to the unbiodegradable performance of PFAS, it is called the "Forever Chemical". At present, the control for PFAS has become more and more strict in the global market. Many countries and regions, such as China, the EU, many states of the US, and Japan, have launched laws to forbid the use of PFOS and PFOA. According to the US consumer report in August 2020, this kind of substance can stay in the human body for a very long time and affects human health.
