Plastic shopping bags are everyday consumables; a large number of plastic shopping bags are consumed in China every year. Plastic shopping bags provide convenience for consumers, at the same time, due to excessive use and uncompleted recycling and other factors; they also caused a serious waste of energy resources and environmental pollution. In particular, the ultra-thin plastic shopping bags are easy to break, therefore, most of them have been randomly dropped which cause into the main source of the "white pollution". At present, more and more countries and areas have restrictions on plastic shopping bags in the production, sales and use.

In January 2008, the General Office of National State Council issued a notice to carry out the paid use system of plastic shopping bags in all supermarkets, shopping malls and other retail places from June 1 and free plastic shopping bags are not allowed to provide in these areas. This new provision has brought a boundless vital force for the development of spun-bonded non-woven fabrics, because the non-woven fabrics are the best choice for the replacement of plastic bags.
