Recently, the provincial Bureau of Industry and Commerce reported the sampling quality inspection of the food circulation in the third quarter of 2011, among which the pass rate of beer bottle sampling was only 67.5%, and many well-known beer brands such as Budweiser, Siojin, and Blue Ribbon were on the “black listâ€. . "If you blew it up, it will cause personal injury." Those who love beer should be careful, and beer bottles are said to have the potential to become "invisible bombs."

harm
Lightly blew, while hurting
In fact, this is not the first time that the beer bottles have been rejected.
On July 30 last year, the Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce conducted a random inspection of the beer bottle market. As a result, nearly 50% of the bottles were found to be unqualified. At that time, brands such as Jinjiang, Jinlongquan and Jinwei were also on the list. In the same way, the problems are mainly in the aspects of impact resistance, internal pressure resistance and so on.
What are the harms if these projects fail?
"If you blew yourself up, it will cause personal injury." Kong Fanzhe, director of the Food and Industry Supervision Department of the Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce, said that beer bottles are pressure-bearing products for beer. Impact resistance and internal pressure are the key quality indicators for beer bottles. Failure in these areas may result in explosion or self-explosion during production, sales, and use, which endangers personal safety.

Super 3 into wine bottles failed
It is reported that the Provincial Bureau of Industry and Commerce organized 326 batches of food in nine varieties of fruit and vegetable juice beverages, beer, moon cakes, puffed and fried snack foods, tea, betel nuts, frozen drinks, infant formula milk powder, and beer bottles. The food related products were sampled and tested. 288 batches were tested and the passing rate was 88.3%. Among them, the passing rate of fruit and vegetable juice beverages, beer and other products is 100%, and the passing rate of moon cakes, puffed and fried small foods, tea, betel nuts and other products is also above 90%, but it is worth noting that the beer bottles are qualified. The rate is only 67.5%.
This time, a total of 40 samples were sampled from 16 companies in Changsha, Hengyang and Zhangzhou. The main items such as impact resistance, internal pressure resistance, and the internal diameter of the bottle were examined separately. After testing, only 27 samples were qualified.
The 13 groups of unqualified items are: First, impact resistance, a total of 10 groups; Second, internal pressure resistance, a total of 5 groups; Third, the bottle mouth diameter is unqualified, a total of 2 groups.
the reason
"Overdue service" is the main reason
Why are beer bottles always exposed?
"This is mainly caused by the repeated use of beer bottles," Kong Fanzhe told reporters. At present, China's beer bottle market is a special market where new and old bottles coexist. There are many recycling bottles. Although this can achieve the purpose of resource conservation, it is precisely because of the existence of a large number of recycled bottles, which poses a great potential danger to consumers' personal safety.
Since there are plenty of bottles for recycling, how long is the life of beer bottles?
It is understood that in 1996 the country had issued a standard for the use of beer bottles. Within 20 mm of the bottom of the beer bottle, special "B" marks and production dates should be used, and the recommended recycling period for beer bottles is two years.
"At present, the recycling bottle usage rate is about 70%." A person in charge of a certain brand of beer sales in Changsha told reporters that the beer bottles are recycled 5 times and their strength is only 50% of the new bottle. A beer bottle is usually used. It can be recycled about 3 times a year, and beer bottles that have been used more than 6 times in general will increase the chance of explosion.
Company response
Batter bottle complaints have decreased considerably compared to 2009
The reporter noticed that among the unqualified beer bottles that were exposed, InBev SJ (Nanchang) Brewery Co., Ltd. was the most. Its products, Siojin Beer Fresh 8° and Siojin Beer, were found to be unqualified in terms of “impact resistance†and “resistance to internal pressureâ€.
On the afternoon of November 14, the reporter contacted Inbo SJ (Nanchang) Brewery Co., Ltd.
The relevant staff of the company said that they already knew the sampling situation, and immediately sent some instructions to the reporter: InBev has invested nearly 1 billion yuan in improving quality projects in China within 3 years; in order to guarantee the quality of recycled bottles, it is absolutely not necessary. The sack returned to the bottle and used the tray to return the bottle; the consumer complaints of the bottle explosion were reduced by more than 85% in 2011 compared to 2009 and so on.
However, the company did not explain whether the unqualified bottles were recycled or reused.
