Price Adjustment Announcement for Nylon Film Products
Gunzé Corporation, known for its commitment to providing high-quality plastic solutions, has announced a necessary price adjustment for its nylon film products. Effective July 21, 2025, all shipments will reflect a price increase of 300 yen or more per roll based on the 15μm equivalent. This decision comes as a response to multiple factors affecting the industry, including sustained high costs of raw materials and rising logistics expenses.
Background and Reasons for Increase
The decision to raise prices was not made lightly. Gunzé has been facing increasing pressures on profitability due to a combination of external and internal factors. First, the prices of raw materials have remained high for a prolonged period, making it difficult for the company to maintain previous pricing levels. Second, logistics costs have soared, which adds further strain on the overall operational expenses. Lastly, the lifting costs associated with maintaining production equipment have also risen significantly.
Despite ongoing efforts to streamline operations and implement cost-cutting measures, the company has found that these initiatives alone cannot fully absorb the financial impact of these rising costs. Consequently, Gunzé has determined that a price adjustment is critical for ensuring the continued supply and quality of its nylon film products to customers.
