Our Journey

From Inspiration to Global Innovation

Our story spans continents and cultures, combining Scandinavian design principles with innovative manufacturing to create a global leader in sustainable building materials.

2002

The Idea

Where responsibility met curiosity

The idea behind Green Plank was born in Vienna during an international conference on eco-friendly composite materials as a sustainable wood-alternative.
One question stood out:

Why not use what nature already discards?

By combining natural fibers—such as rice hulls—with recycled polymers, the foundation was laid for a durable, low-maintenance, and environmentally responsible alternative to wood.

Learning Without Borders

Knowledge before scale

Through early conferences and global travel, Mr. Gill worked closely with material scientists, engineers, and extrusion specialists, including researchers from the University of Maine. This period was defined by learning—understanding fibers, polymers, formulations, and real-world performance.

From Knowledge to Reality

First production, European ambition

The acquired know-how was put into practice with the establishment of Asia’s first Natural Fiber Composite production facility in Lahore, using high-precision extrusion technology

At the same time, a family-owned company was founded in Malmö, Sweden—creating a direct connection to the European market and laying the groundwork for long-term Nordic presence

A Nordic Test

Entering a wood-loving region

Green Plank began exporting to Scandinavia—one of the world’s most forest-rich regions. The challenge was obvious.

Yet Scandinavian consumers and municipalities recognised the value of a durable, recycled, low-maintenance alternative that aligned with Nordic values of sustainability and responsible resource use.

A lasting foothold was established in Sweden and Denmark

Innovation Driven by Reality

Making durability accessible

Price remained a barrier.
Instead of accepting it, Green Plank redesigned the product.

Hollow composite decking profiles were introduced—reducing material use without compromising structural performance. The result: lower cost, wider accessibility, and faster market adoption.

Design Meets Nature

A new surface expression

Green Plank introduced multi-colour composite planks, blending two to three tones for a more natural, living surface.

The concept was presented at DOMOTEX in Hannover—marking Green Plank’s first entry into the German and broader Western European markets

Beyond Decking

From surfaces to façades

Composite wall cladding profiles were launched at DOMOTEX, extending natural-fiber composite technology to building façades.

Durable, low-maintenance, and architecturally clean—Green Plank moved from outdoor flooring to complete exterior solutions

Recognition

Direction over scale

Green Plank was awarded Årets Nybyggare 2015 , presented by King Carl XVI Gustaf at The Royal Palace, Stockholm

By then, Green Plank had earned trust across Europe and the Middle East as a Swedish quality brand—defined by durability, responsibility, and long-term vision

The recognition was not about size.
It was about direction.

Innovation as a Discipline

Removing what doesn’t belong

Green Plank applied for its first Swedish patent:
a clip-free composite decking system with tongue-and-groove profiling

Designed to eliminate visible fasteners, prevent dirt and weed growth, improve surface stability, and simplify installation—innovation focused on everyday use, not complexity

A Strategic Shift

Turning disruption into clarity

Global supply chains collapsed during COVID-19. Borders closed. Production stopped.
Green Plank responded with a clear decision:
bring production closer to the market

The goal became clear—produce locally in Europe and sell globally, guided by Swedish quality standards.

2025

A European Foundation

Designed in Scandinavia. Produced in Europe. Delivered globally.

Green Plank established its first European Natural Fiber Composite production unit in Klaipėda, Lithuania—under Swedish management and with skilled local technicians

The location offers efficient logistics, strong export access, and close proximity to European raw materials. Production follows Swedish quality standards and German precision technology.

Production follows Swedish quality standards, powered by German precision technology, combining discipline with engineering accuracy

Today, Green Plank is proud to supply the world with advanced natural-fiber composite solutions —

  • Designed in Scandinavia
  • Produced in Europe
  • Delivered globally
  • Made in EU

The journey continues—rooted in responsibility, guided by engineering, and proven over time.

Manufacturing in the EU

Closer to the market.
Closer to responsibility.

Green Plank manufactures its natural-fiber composite products entirely within the European Union. A strategic choice to deliver reliability that global supply chains cannot guarantee.

Lower CO₂ Footprint

Producing close to our markets significantly reduces transport distances and associated emissions.

Reduced sea freight
Lower fuel consumption

Built for Municipal Trust

Ensures compliance with strict public procurement and environmental standards for cities.

Documented sustainability
Transparent supply chains

Predictable Delivery

Shorter supply chains mean faster lead times and reduced dependency on global disruptions.

Faster lead times
Stable project planning

Full Traceability

European production enables full visibility from raw material sourcing to finished product.

Responsible sourcing
Controlled formulations

Supporting Local Industry

Sustainability is also about people—investing in regional skills and strengthening EU know-how.

Weathering
Aging Gracefully

Natural Weathering Behaviour

Understanding how your Green Plank® products age naturally over time in outdoor environments

What to Expect

Over time, exposure to sunlight and weather conditions will cause a natural color change in our composite materials. This weathering process results in a beautiful, silver-grey patina that enhances the wood-like appearance.

The rate of weathering varies based on geographic location, sun exposure, and environmental factors. Coastal areas with high salt content may experience faster changes compared to shaded or indoor installations.
