Gunzé Packaging System Announces Price Adjustments

Gunzé Packaging System Co., Ltd., a consolidated subsidiary of Gunzé Corporation, has officially announced a scheduled price increase for its products, effective from shipments on February 1, 2026. This decision comes as a response to rising costs in various sectors impacting the industry.

Background and Reasons for Price Adjustment

In recent times, significant price hikes have been observed among raw material suppliers and film manufacturers, primarily driven by increases in labor costs and maintenance expenses. In light of these economic changes, Gunzé Packaging System has prioritized the stability of supply and the preservation of product quality. The company has been persistently implementing stringent cost-cutting measures; however, it has become exceedingly challenging to absorb the rising costs solely through internal efforts. Furthermore, investments in equipment to avoid supply disruptions and the costs associated with aging infrastructure have contributed to the necessity of this price update.

To continue fulfilling our commitment to supplying high-quality products to our customers, we are asking for understanding regarding the need to adjust our pricing accordingly.

Details of Price Adjustments

The following changes will take effect starting with shipments from February 1, 2026:
