GL BARRIER is a brand of Toppan's transparent high barrier film developed by unique transparent vapor deposition and coating technologies. The film has excellent water vapor and gas barrier properties and is used in various applications such as packaging materials for food, toiletry, electronics, and industrial materials.

Contributes to create a sustainable society

Toppan has increased its stake to acquire a majority shareholding in Max Speciality Films, a leading Indian manufacturer of BOPP films. It helps to expand the company's network for supplying mono-materials to diverse customers in global markets, contributing to creating a sustainable society.

Speaking about their upcoming participation in PackEx India, Sato shares, "We hope that Toppan’s barrier films and global network will become widely. Through business meetings with visitors in the growing Indian market, we will make proposals to benefit customers."
