The company introduced two new types, FS35NB and FS40NB, which are compatible for boiling applications. These innovative additions retain the ultra-thin and tough characteristics that have defined the series to date, making them more convenient for use in central kitchens and other food processing facilities. They also contribute to environmental sustainability by reducing the use of plastic by approximately 50%. The movement toward a plastic-free society is gaining momentum not only in Japan, but around the world. With the implementation of the "Plastic Resource Circulation Act" in Japan in April 2022, all stakeholders are now required to reduce plastic use and promote resource recycling throughout the entire lifecycle of plastic products, from design to waste disposal. In particular, perishable seafood, livestock products, and their processed forms are often transported in freezing environments, where reducing plastic use is challenging due to concerns about strength loss from volume reduction. In January 2022, Gunze introduced Purewrap FS35N and FS40N, which offer more than twice the puncture strength of conventional non-oriented nylon-polyethylene 70 µm films while reducing plastic use by approximately 50%. This film type has been widely adopted by customers. It has now been renewed as a boilable type, expanding its applicability to a wider range of foods processed in central kitchens for commercial prepared foods and restaurants. The company recommends the product for food applications that require transportation in frozen environments and processing in central kitchens. Purewrap is a coextruded blown film with simultaneous biaxial orientation that provides exceptional puncture resistance for contents and impact resistance for external surfaces. The company's unique raw material compounding, multilayer construction and orientation technologies have made this nylon-polyethylene film highly flexible with superior puncture resistance, ideal for refrigerated transport.Buy Or Sell Opportunity • Aug 10Now 21% overvalued after recent price riseOver the last 90 days, the stock has risen 2.6% to €31.60.

Shrinkability: Good shrinkability. Maximum shrink of 70%, suitable for complex-shaped bottles. Perforability: Good perforability and Easy to peel along the perforation line. Use of recycled materials: Approximately 1% of the printing waste generated by converters is recycled, and at least 5% of the raw materials are chemically recycled using the mass balance method. Phase 1 In-house post-industrial recycling: Gunze has transformed its Moriyama Plant, which manufactures shrink film and other products, into a zero-emission plant that produces no plastic waste. The Moriyama Plant is expected to achieve zero waste by the end of FY2024. Phase 2: Off-site post-industrial recycling. The GEOPLAS® HCX1 now being offered contains film made from collected post-printing waste generated by sister converting company, Gunze Packaging Systems. And the company intends to expand this initiative to other manufacturing facilities such as converters and PET bottled beverages in the near future. Phase 3 Post-Consumer Recycling: The company will contribute to a resource-recycling society by collecting post-consumer labels from the market and using them as raw materials for film production. The company will gradually increase the recycling rate, aiming to achieve 100% recycling rate by 2030. The company will also expand thick product line and promote its development in the food and toiletries markets.공시 • Jun 02Gunze Limited to Report Q1, 2025 Results on Aug 02, 2024Gunze Limited announced that they will report Q1, 2025 results on Aug 02, 2024Reported Earnings • May 19Full year 2024 earnings released: EPS: JP¥301 (vs JP¥261 in FY 2023)Full year 2024 results: EPS: JP¥301 (up from JP¥261 in FY 2023).

One-off items were 25% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows.

The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multi-layered product that uses 5% of chemical recycled raw materials with the mass balance approach. The new product will first be launched in Japan and then expanded to the U.S., China and ASEAN markets. The product to be launched this time is the second product after company's eco-friendly grade GEOPLAS™ HCT3. The global shift away from plastic is gaining momentum and bringing tangible changes to immediate surroundings. From the introduction of paper straws in restaurants to the emergence of pay-per-use plastic bags, the movement is reshaping daily experiences. Last April, the enactment of the Law on the “Law for Recycling Plastic Materials” marked a pivotal moment, amplifying the urgency of addressing Japan's plastic waste crisis, tackling climate change, and navigating stricter regulations on cross-border waste imports. Under these pressing challenges, companies are now mandated to align their plastic product designs. At the same time, consumers are being given a key role by being urged to reduce the release of plastic waste, ensure careful waste separation, and choose certified plastic products. This concerted effort underscores a shared commitment to address the multifaceted problems caused by plastic consumption and to lead Japan toward a sustainable and responsible future. In response to the above background, Gunze has started to develop a hybrid shrink film that realizes the lightest weight shrink label. This film is not only lightweight, but also easy to use in the shrink label market, and is both environmentally friendly and excellent in function. Following HCX1 and HCT3, which use recycled raw materials, the company aims to increase the use of recycled raw materials to 50% by 2024 and to supply products made from 100% recycled raw materials by 2030 through the use of these technologies. The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multi-layered product using company's unique multilayer oriented film technology. It is widely used globally as shrink labels for PET bottled beverages, foods, cosmetics, home & personal care products and other products. The product has both polystyrene and polyethylene terephthalate benefits such as excellent shrink appearance, perforation suitability, heat resistance, content resistance and stiffness. Product outline: Product name: GEOPLAS™ HCX1; Lineup: Thickness 23 micron (Can be used with automatic shrink sleeve label application machines); Applications: Labels for beverages, foods, groceries, home & personal care products; Sales plan: Aim to sell 500MT in the first year (FY2024); Sales base: Japan, USA, Vietnam, China; Features: (1) Weight: Lightest weight shrink film for automatic sleeve applicators. (2) Shrinkability: Good shrinkability. Maximum shrink of 70%, suitable for complex-shaped bottles. (3) Perforability: Good perforability and Easy to peel along the perforation line. (4) Use of recycled materials: At least 5% of materials are chemically recycled using the mass balance method. The mass balancing approach is when a raw material with certain features (e.g., chemical recycled raw material) is mixed with a raw material that does not have certain features (e.g., petroleum-derived raw material) during processing and distribution from raw materials to products. It distributes the raw material with specific features to a part of the product according to the input amount of the raw materials with the specific features. The mass balance approach-based products require a third-party certification to avoid arbitrary decisions by companies.

The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multi-layered product that uses 30% of chemical recycled raw materials with the mass balance approach. The new product will first be launched in Japan and then expanded to the U.S. and ASEAN markets. This is the first of a series of recycled heat-shrinkable films that reduce the use of petroleum-derived raw materials and focusing on expanding into global markets. The movement away from plastics is accelerating in all the countries around the world. After the enforcement of the "Law for Recycling Plastic Materials" in Japan in April 2022, companies and local governments are required to promote resource recycling in all processes of plastic products, from design to manufacturing and reuse. The company has established "Promoting a basic policy towards a recycling system for plastics" and evolved a strategy of "Conversion to recycled and bio-attributed raw materials” in December 2019 and declared that 50% of the raw materials used by the plastics business would be recycled and biomass by 2027 and increase the ratio to 100% by 2030. Gunze has achieved excellent shrinkage performance and stiffness by adding functions through multilayer technology of different materials and has promoted eco-friendly management by reducing the thickness of hybrid shrink film. The company will strengthen its efforts to realize sustainable economy by using recycled raw materials for the hybrid shrinkable film which is one of the main products in plastic business. And the launch of the new product is one of the efforts to reduce petroleum materials usage and GHG emissions. In addition, core plant, Moriyama plant, will change into a circular factory and to the factory with zero emissions that does not produce plastic waste materials by 2024. In this process, the company will collect own multilayered products and establish its separation and recycling technologies. And then commercialize the products with 100% recyclable raw materials. The company will launch the shrinkable film with 30% recycled material this time and aim to increase the ratio to 50% by 2024 and the ratio to 100% by 2030. The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multi-layered product using unique multilayer oriented film technology. It is widely used globally as shrink labels for PET bottled beverages, foods, cosmetics, home & personal care products and other products.

The company is planning to launch the product in March 2022 through its subsidiary “Gunze Medical Japan” in the Japanese market. As the average life expectancy increases, the possibility of undergoing multiple surgeries in one's lifetime also rises. The use of an absorbable adhesion barrier is expanding to reduce postoperative organ adhesions (Note) which can lead to difficult second and subsequent surgeries. Also, in order to improve the patient’s clinical outcome, laparoscopic surgery has recently been growing. Gunze developed its absorbable adhesion barrier by applying proprietary absorbable material technology with the goal of providing an innovative solution in this area. This device provides surgeons with a new option during open surgery and minimally invasive surgery, which can enable easy manipulation, provide moderate adhesive strength for repositioning and conformable placement. The company strives to expand its recognition by informing the new product features and benefits to surgeons and their patients. They typically occur after surgical intervention, where organs and/or tissue adhere to each other during the tissue remodeling process. It occurs frequently regardless of the surgical procedure, and may cause postoperative complications such as intestinal obstruction and infertility, which may require removal of adhesions in the second or subsequent surgery.Reported Earnings • Feb 06Third quarter 2022 earnings: EPS in line with expectations, revenues disappointThird quarter 2022 results: EPS: JP¥92.28 (down from JP¥107 in 3Q 2021).

The synthetic grafts that are currently available have contributed to improved outcomes for pediatric patients’ cardiovascular surgery (i.e., congenital heart disease likes single ventricular disease). However, because the synthetic grafts do not grow alongside the living body parts, it can be necessary to perform additional surgeries in order to replace the grafts. This is a heavy burden on the patients. Additionally, the implementation of these graft materials at small diameters has demonstrated poor patency, inhibiting their use for coronary artery bypass surgery in adults. When applied to a pediatric patient population, they are handicapped by their inability to grow alongside the patient. Tissue engineered alternatives could possibly address these limitations by producing biocompatible implants with the ability to repair, remodel, grow, and regenerate. A tissue engineered vascular graft (TEVG) generally consists of a biodegradable scaffold, seeded cells, and the appropriate environmental cues (i.e., growth factors, physical stimulation) to induce tissue formation. To solve the problem, Toshiharu Shinoka, MD, PhD, co-director of the Tissue Engineering Program, and Christopher Breuer, MD, director of the Center for Regenerative Medicine, both of Nationwide Children’s, have developed the TEVG technology with Gunze’s biodegradable scaffold and will commence use of the Gunze scaffold in the first clinical trial using this material. However, it is difficult to work on a commercial basis to supply biodegradable scaffolds for such a rare disease like single ventricular disease. Gunze management has defined “QOL improvement” as a key challenge to resolve and has engaged with Nationwide Children’s Hospital to sponsor a clinical trial. Nationwide Children’s Hospital received clinical trial approval from the US FDA in August 2019. The biodegradable scaffolds are generated by its “bioabsorbable materials” and “fiber/polymer processing technology”. Cells taken from the bone marrow of the patient are seeded on this to form an artificial blood vessel. This is implanted as a cardiovascular bypass, and, after about 6 months, this revascularization base material is absorbed and regenerated as blood vessels using the patient's own tissue. By using organic material from the child’s own body, surgeons can avoid the problems associated with synthetic grafts and implantations. Previous studies have confirmed that this regenerated vessel follows the growth of the patient. As a result, subsequent surgery is avoided and restrictions on daily life are reduced, leading to improved patient QOL. Dr. Shinoka is one of the inventors of Gunze’s biodegradable scaffold. Gunze will establish and confirm safety and efficacy of biodegradable scaffolds in clinical trials in the U. S. and strive to build a sales system. In addition, by taking advantage of Gunze’s strengths in “bioabsorbable materials” and “fiber/polymer processing technology,” the patients’ QOL will continue to improve through the development and advocacy of less-invasive medical devices and procedures.공시 • Sep 22Misonix Enters into Exclusive Supply and Distribution Agreement with Gunze Limited for Theragenesis Bilayer Wound MatrixMisonix, Inc. announced that it has entered into an exclusive supply and distribution agreement with Gunze Limited for TheraGenesis® Bilayer Wound Matrix.

공시 • Aug 28Gunze Limited Launches Purewrap Fs35NB & Fs40NB Thin Coextruded Blown Film for Vacuum Packaging of Boilable That Can Reduce Plastic Use by 50%Gunze Limited announced that the renewal of its ultra-thin and tough blown film, Purewrap, specifically designed for food products requiring transportation in frozen environments. The company introduced two new types, FS35NB and FS40NB, which are compatible for boiling applications. These innovative additions retain the ultra-thin and tough characteristics that have defined the series to date, making them more convenient for use in central kitchens and other food processing facilities. They also contribute to environmental sustainability by reducing the use of plastic by approximately 50%. The movement toward a plastic-free society is gaining momentum not only in Japan, but around the world. With the implementation of the "Plastic Resource Circulation Act" in Japan in April 2022, all stakeholders are now required to reduce plastic use and promote resource recycling throughout the entire lifecycle of plastic products, from design to waste disposal. In particular, perishable seafood, livestock products, and their processed forms are often transported in freezing environments, where reducing plastic use is challenging due to concerns about strength loss from volume reduction. In January 2022, Gunze introduced Purewrap FS35N and FS40N, which offer more than twice the puncture strength of conventional non-oriented nylon-polyethylene 70 µm films while reducing plastic use by approximately 50%. This film type has been widely adopted by customers. It has now been renewed as a boilable type, expanding its applicability to a wider range of foods processed in central kitchens for commercial prepared foods and restaurants. The company recommends the product for food applications that require transportation in frozen environments and processing in central kitchens. Purewrap is a coextruded blown film with simultaneous biaxial orientation that provides exceptional puncture resistance for contents and impact resistance for external surfaces. The company's unique raw material compounding, multilayer construction and orientation technologies have made this nylon-polyethylene film highly flexible with superior puncture resistance, ideal for refrigerated transport.

Shrinkability: Good shrinkability. Maximum shrink of 70%, suitable for complex-shaped bottles. Perforability: Good perforability and Easy to peel along the perforation line. Use of recycled materials: Approximately 1% of the printing waste generated by converters is recycled, and at least 5% of the raw materials are chemically recycled using the mass balance method. Phase 1 In-house post-industrial recycling: Gunze has transformed its Moriyama Plant, which manufactures shrink film and other products, into a zero-emission plant that produces no plastic waste. The Moriyama Plant is expected to achieve zero waste by the end of FY2024. Phase 2: Off-site post-industrial recycling. The GEOPLAS® HCX1 now being offered contains film made from collected post-printing waste generated by sister converting company, Gunze Packaging Systems. And the company intends to expand this initiative to other manufacturing facilities such as converters and PET bottled beverages in the near future. Phase 3 Post-Consumer Recycling: The company will contribute to a resource-recycling society by collecting post-consumer labels from the market and using them as raw materials for film production. The company will gradually increase the recycling rate, aiming to achieve 100% recycling rate by 2030. The company will also expand thick product line and promote its development in the food and toiletries markets.

New Risk • Feb 07New minor risk - Earnings qualityThe company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 25% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Large one-off items impacting financial results.

공시 • Dec 13Gunze Limited Launches Environmentally Friendly "GEOPLAS™ HCX1", the Lightest Shrink Film for Automatic Sleeve ApplicatorsGunze Limited announced that the company will launch an eco-friendly "GEOPLAS™ HCX1", the lightest shrink film for automatic sleeve applicators in December 2023. The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multi-layered product that uses 5% of chemical recycled raw materials with the mass balance approach. The new product will first be launched in Japan and then expanded to the U.S., China and ASEAN markets. The product to be launched this time is the second product after company's eco-friendly grade GEOPLAS™ HCT3. The global shift away from plastic is gaining momentum and bringing tangible changes to immediate surroundings. From the introduction of paper straws in restaurants to the emergence of pay-per-use plastic bags, the movement is reshaping daily experiences. Last April, the enactment of the Law on the “Law for Recycling Plastic Materials” marked a pivotal moment, amplifying the urgency of addressing Japan's plastic waste crisis, tackling climate change, and navigating stricter regulations on cross-border waste imports. Under these pressing challenges, companies are now mandated to align their plastic product designs. At the same time, consumers are being given a key role by being urged to reduce the release of plastic waste, ensure careful waste separation, and choose certified plastic products. This concerted effort underscores a shared commitment to address the multifaceted problems caused by plastic consumption and to lead Japan toward a sustainable and responsible future. In response to the above background, Gunze has started to develop a hybrid shrink film that realizes the lightest weight shrink label. This film is not only lightweight, but also easy to use in the shrink label market, and is both environmentally friendly and excellent in function. Following HCX1 and HCT3, which use recycled raw materials, the company aims to increase the use of recycled raw materials to 50% by 2024 and to supply products made from 100% recycled raw materials by 2030 through the use of these technologies. The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multi-layered product using company's unique multilayer oriented film technology. It is widely used globally as shrink labels for PET bottled beverages, foods, cosmetics, home & personal care products and other products. The product has both polystyrene and polyethylene terephthalate benefits such as excellent shrink appearance, perforation suitability, heat resistance, content resistance and stiffness. Product outline: Product name: GEOPLAS™ HCX1; Lineup: Thickness 23 micron (Can be used with automatic shrink sleeve label application machines); Applications: Labels for beverages, foods, groceries, home & personal care products; Sales plan: Aim to sell 500MT in the first year (FY2024); Sales base: Japan, USA, Vietnam, China; Features: (1) Weight: Lightest weight shrink film for automatic sleeve applicators. (2) Shrinkability: Good shrinkability. Maximum shrink of 70%, suitable for complex-shaped bottles. (3) Perforability: Good perforability and Easy to peel along the perforation line. (4) Use of recycled materials: At least 5% of materials are chemically recycled using the mass balance method. The mass balancing approach is when a raw material with certain features (e.g., chemical recycled raw material) is mixed with a raw material that does not have certain features (e.g., petroleum-derived raw material) during processing and distribution from raw materials to products. It distributes the raw material with specific features to a part of the product according to the input amount of the raw materials with the specific features. The mass balance approach-based products require a third-party certification to avoid arbitrary decisions by companies. Gunze has already received ISCC certification in July 2023.

The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multi-layered product that uses 30% of chemical recycled raw materials with the mass balance approach. The new product will first be launched in Japan and then expanded to the U.S. and ASEAN markets. This is the first of a series of recycled heat-shrinkable films that reduce the use of petroleum-derived raw materials and focusing on expanding into global markets. The movement away from plastics is accelerating in all the countries around the world. After the enforcement of the "Law for Recycling Plastic Materials" in Japan in April 2022, companies and local governments are required to promote resource recycling in all processes of plastic products, from design to manufacturing and reuse. The company has established "Promoting a basic policy towards a recycling system for plastics" and evolved a strategy of "Conversion to recycled and bio-attributed raw materials” in December 2019 and declared that 50% of the raw materials used by the plastics business would be recycled and biomass by 2027 and increase the ratio to 100% by 2030. Gunze has achieved excellent shrinkage performance and stiffness by adding functions through multilayer technology of different materials and has promoted eco-friendly management by reducing the thickness of hybrid shrink film. The company will strengthen its efforts to realize sustainable economy by using recycled raw materials for the hybrid shrinkable film which is one of the main products in plastic business. And the launch of the new product is one of the efforts to reduce petroleum materials usage and GHG emissions. In addition, core plant, Moriyama plant, will change into a circular factory and to the factory with zero emissions that does not produce plastic waste materials by 2024. In this process, the company will collect own multilayered products and establish its separation and recycling technologies. And then commercialize the products with 100% recyclable raw materials. The company will launch the shrinkable film with 30% recycled material this time and aim to increase the ratio to 50% by 2024 and the ratio to 100% by 2030. The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multi-layered product using unique multilayer oriented film technology. It is widely used globally as shrink labels for PET bottled beverages, foods, cosmetics, home & personal care products and other products.

공시 • Feb 24Gunze Launches TENALEAF™ Absorbable Adhesion Barrier in JapanGunze Limited announced that Gunze has obtained medical device approval to manufacture and sell TENALEAF™, the first sheet-type absorbable adhesion barrier made in Japan. The company is planning to launch the product in March 2022 through its subsidiary “Gunze Medical Japan” in the Japanese market. As the average life expectancy increases, the possibility of undergoing multiple surgeries in one's lifetime also rises. The use of an absorbable adhesion barrier is expanding to reduce postoperative organ adhesions (Note) which can lead to difficult second and subsequent surgeries. Also, in order to improve the patient’s clinical outcome, laparoscopic surgery has recently been growing. Gunze developed its absorbable adhesion barrier by applying proprietary absorbable material technology with the goal of providing an innovative solution in this area. This device provides surgeons with a new option during open surgery and minimally invasive surgery, which can enable easy manipulation, provide moderate adhesive strength for repositioning and conformable placement. The company strives to expand its recognition by informing the new product features and benefits to surgeons and their patients. They typically occur after surgical intervention, where organs and/or tissue adhere to each other during the tissue remodeling process. It occurs frequently regardless of the surgical procedure, and may cause postoperative complications such as intestinal obstruction and infertility, which may require removal of adhesions in the second or subsequent surgery.

공시 • Sep 24Gunze Provides Biodegradable Scaffolds for TEVG Clinical Trial to Be Conducted at the Abigail Wexner Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital to Improve Pediatric Patient Clinical OutcomeGunze Limited announced that Gunze’s biodegradable scaffolds are being provided to the Abigail Wexner Research Institute at Nationwide Children's Hospital to conduct its first human tissue engineered vascular grafts (hereinafter TEVG), clinical trial. The synthetic grafts that are currently available have contributed to improved outcomes for pediatric patients’ cardiovascular surgery (i.e., congenital heart disease likes single ventricular disease). However, because the synthetic grafts do not grow alongside the living body parts, it can be necessary to perform additional surgeries in order to replace the grafts. This is a heavy burden on the patients. Additionally, the implementation of these graft materials at small diameters has demonstrated poor patency, inhibiting their use for coronary artery bypass surgery in adults. When applied to a pediatric patient population, they are handicapped by their inability to grow alongside the patient. Tissue engineered alternatives could possibly address these limitations by producing biocompatible implants with the ability to repair, remodel, grow, and regenerate. A tissue engineered vascular graft (TEVG) generally consists of a biodegradable scaffold, seeded cells, and the appropriate environmental cues (i.e., growth factors, physical stimulation) to induce tissue formation. To solve the problem, Toshiharu Shinoka, MD, PhD, co-director of the Tissue Engineering Program, and Christopher Breuer, MD, director of the Center for Regenerative Medicine, both of Nationwide Children’s, have developed the TEVG technology with Gunze’s biodegradable scaffold and will commence use of the Gunze scaffold in the first clinical trial using this material. However, it is difficult to work on a commercial basis to supply biodegradable scaffolds for such a rare disease like single ventricular disease. Gunze management has defined “QOL improvement” as a key challenge to resolve and has engaged with Nationwide Children’s Hospital to sponsor a clinical trial. Nationwide Children’s Hospital received clinical trial approval from the US FDA in August 2019. The biodegradable scaffolds are generated by its “bioabsorbable materials” and “fiber/polymer processing technology”. Cells taken from the bone marrow of the patient are seeded on this to form an artificial blood vessel. This is implanted as a cardiovascular bypass, and, after about 6 months, this revascularization base material is absorbed and regenerated as blood vessels using the patient's own tissue. By using organic material from the child’s own body, surgeons can avoid the problems associated with synthetic grafts and implantations. Previous studies have confirmed that this regenerated vessel follows the growth of the patient. As a result, subsequent surgery is avoided and restrictions on daily life are reduced, leading to improved patient QOL. Dr. Shinoka is one of the inventors of Gunze’s biodegradable scaffold. Gunze will establish and confirm safety and efficacy of biodegradable scaffolds in clinical trials in the U. S. and strive to build a sales system. In addition, by taking advantage of Gunze’s strengths in “bioabsorbable materials” and “fiber/polymer processing technology,” the patients’ QOL will continue to improve through the development and advocacy of less-invasive medical devices and procedures.
