Gunze Limited hereby announces that it has decided to implement a price revision for film products sold by its Plastic Company.

Background and Reasons

Since the price revision in April 2026, naphtha prices have soared due to the prolonged situation in the Middle East, and raw material and auxiliary material prices have been rising one after another. Our company has thoroughly implemented cost reductions such as production rationalization and strived to ensure a stable supply of products, but the current cost increases have exceeded the limits that can be absorbed through our own efforts.

Therefore, we have come to this unavoidable decision to maintain quality and continue stable supply in the future.
