GL FILM preserves the quality of foods and products for a long time, making extension of shelf lives possible. Reduction of waste can also help to lower material procurement costs and inventory loss.

In contrast to aluminum foil, microwave heating is possible when GL FILM is used for food packaging. X-ray inspection of packages is also possible and detection of metallic foreign materials is easy. Radio wave communication by items such as IC tags is not inhibited, meaning it can be used in various settings.

Because GL FILM packaging is much lighter and more compact than glass or metal containers, it can help to cut costs by reducing the energy consumed during transportation.

As GL FILM does not contain chlorine, it can be disposed of by incineration, with no toxic gases generated. Using GL FILM instead of glass or metal containers means a reduction in weight that contributes to lower CO2 emissions during transportation.
