Furthermore, the company is committed to grow sustainably alongside its strategic partners who are brand owners and strives to expand product development collaborations with educational institutions and government agencies in a bid to create product development opportunities, increase trade options and expand customer base.

With this regard, GC could develop environmental-friendly, safe-to-consumer, and low-carbon products, continuously. In addition, GC closely monitors the performance of its product development to ensure the highest satisfaction of its customers.
GC collaborated with suppliers to develop responsible products as well as elevate the quality of life in the society. “Upcycling Upstyling” is a project that supports the circulation of resources by adding value to plastic waste through the process of “upcycling”.
