[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunseok Yoo] GreenPlus announced on the 15th that it expects an increase in sales through diversification of sales channels in its aluminum division by targeting the logistics market with the launch of the eco-friendly aluminum smart logistics product, 'Greentainer.' The 'Greentainer' is a smart logistics product used for storing and transporting goods in logistics warehouses and other facilities.


The 'Greentainer' is characterized by being made of eco-friendly aluminum, significantly reducing its weight. Compared to wood, plastic, and steel, which are mostly used in the logistics industry, its weight is reduced by about 55%, which is expected to improve work convenience and reduce safety accidents for workers. In addition, the reduced weight itself lowers fuel costs incurred during logistics transportation, providing cost-saving efficiency from a long-term perspective.


Moreover, it is made of aluminum material that does not rust, allowing it to maintain cleanliness at all times. This is expected to be actively used in the food industry, including businesses certified by the Korea Food Safety Management Certification Institute (HACCP), as well as in the pharmaceutical and bio industries. It is also made of fire-resistant non-combustible material, minimizing secondary damage caused by harmful substances during fires.


A GreenPlus official stated, "If Greentainer is utilized in the logistics industry, it can reduce safety accidents through product lightweighting and reduce fuel costs for transport vehicles. Additionally, since it can be serviced and recycled in case of damage, it is cost-effective and eco-friendly for the company." He added, "Currently, samples are being supplied to two global commerce giants and a major pharmaceutical bio company." He continued, "Starting from this, we plan to expand aluminum business sales areas to food, distribution companies, hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, and also expand the business to overseas markets."



Meanwhile, GreenPlus has grown as a green company by operating advanced greenhouse businesses, renewable energy, solar power projects, and smart farms. Through over a year of research and development, it is leading the eco-friendly transformation of the logistics business with the launch of the Greentainer, the first aluminum-based product of its kind in Korea.
