The Waste to Wood Revolution
Transforming millions of discarded palm oil trees into valuable, sustainable wood products through groundbreaking innovation and patented processes.
The Problem: A Mountain of Waste
Every year, millions of oil palm trees reach the end of their productive lives after 25 years. This creates a staggering amount of biomass waste across Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia that typically rots or gets destroyed.
Our Solution: New Life for Palm Wood
We intercept this waste and transform it into high-quality, usable wood products using spare capacity of local rubberwood sawmills, complete with detailed carbon footprint analysis for maximum sustainability.
