Three tiers.

One program.

Matched to your brand’s stage.

The Inside Program has three tiers: Powered by GranovaQ®, GranovaQ Inside and GranovaQ Certified. We work with your brand step by step, according to its stage, how deeply the material is blended in, and the level of quality criteria it meets.

GranovaQ Inside is a licensing program run by J.C. Technology Co., Ltd., the maker of GranovaQ. The mark is awarded by J.C. Technology, not by an independent third party, and refers only to the material: genuine GranovaQ, specified loading, quality control and annual audit.

02 / Moving up

How to move up.

As your brand develops, you can move between tiers within the Inside Program. Start at Tier 01 and work toward Tier 02, or grow a premium line from Tier 02 to Tier 03. We support either path.

Powered by → Inside

Tier 01 → Tier 02

Trigger:Meet the genuine-material, blend-ratio and quality-control criteria

From prototype to mainline. The Inside logo license becomes available.

Inside → Certified

Tier 02 → Tier 03

Trigger:Higher loading + compliance with higher quality criteria

From mainline to apex. Products carry the Spec Stamp and can be positioned as flagships.
