The emergence of kraft paper bags has changed the traditional thinking that people's shopping volume can only be limited to the number of items that can be carried by both hands, and it also makes consumers no longer reduce the pleasant experience of shopping itself because they are worried that they will not be able to hold it. It may be an exaggeration to say that the birth of the kraft paper bag has promoted the development of the entire retail industry, but it at least reveals such a phenomenon to the merchants, that is, before the customer's shopping experience becomes as comfortable, easy and convenient as possible, you simply cannot Predict how much consumers will actually buy. It is also this that caused latecomers to pay more attention to the consumer shopping experience, and also promoted the development of supermarket shopping baskets and shopping trolleys.
In the following half a century, the development of kraft paper shopping bags can be said to be smooth. The improvement of materials has continuously increased the load-bearing capacity and the appearance has become more and more exquisite. Manufacturers have printed various trademarks and patterns on kraft paper. Bags, into the shops in the streets and alleys. Until the mid-20th century, the appearance of plastic shopping bags became another major revolution in the history of shopping bag development. With the advantages of thinner, stronger and lower manufacturing costs, it makes the once-glamorous kraft paper bag eclipsed. Since then, plastic bags have become the first choice for daily consumption, while leather bags have gradually "retired to the second line". In the end, the kraft paper bags that have faded away can only be used in the packaging of a small number of skin care products, clothing, books, and audio-visual products under the guise of "nostalgia", "natural" and "environmental protection".
However, with the global prevalence of "anti-plastic" wind, environmentalists have begun to turn their attention to the ancient kraft paper bags. Since 2006, McDonald's China has gradually introduced a kraft paper bag with thermal insulation performance to hold takeaway food in all stores, replacing the use of plastic food bags. This initiative has also received positive responses from other businesses, such as Nike, Adidas and other big consumers of plastic bags, who have begun to use high-quality kraft paper bags to replace plastic shopping bags.
