OUT OF RESPONSIBILITY TO OUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN. For me, sustainability is explicitly something that will not be detrimental to future generations. I started developing our innovative wood-based GCC material back in 2005. My vision was to use chips from the regional planing and sawing industry to produce a polymer-bound material with the highest possible wood content. From the very beginning, the material was designed so that it meets all the requirements for a healthy wood-based material in order to enable a consistent circular economy and climate-neutral production. That is a personal...

Tested quality produced in Germany. OUR PRODUCTS MEET THE HIGHEST STANDARDS. AT OUR COMPANY, EVERYTHING IS MANUFACTURED IN-HOUSE. We place great value on quality and set ourselves high standards every day. Various standard-setting organisations that regularly and independently test our products confirm that we are doing the right thing. We are particularly proud of the Cradle to Cradle Certified® Gold level achieved by our wood-based material, which proves that we consistently and comprehensively contribute to solving ecological, economic and social problems. In addition, the PEFC certificate...

No trees are cut down for our products. THE RESPONSIBLE HANDLING OF RESOURCES IS PART OF OUR PHILOSOPHY. CLIMATE POSITIVE – WE USE WHAT ALREADY EXISTS We only produce our GCC material using wood fibres obtained from waste wood from the planing and sawing industry. The wood for this comes from sustainably managed and PEFCcertified European forests – and we place great importance on this. The wood fibres that are declared as waste are usually burned. The carbon bound in this wood is then released into the atmosphere as CO2. Instead, we use the wood chips as a basis for our products and ensure the...

Wood is good and we make it even better. GCC HOLZart has all the good properties of the natural material, radiates just as much heat, and can be processed in exactly the same way. Due to the added polymers and the patented extrusion process, the original softwood is turned into a solid, more durable wood-based material that withstands the high mechanical demands of outdoor use and forms the basis for sustainable construction that spans generations. contains up to 75% wood fibres from sustainably managed forests smells and feels like wood THE WELL-KNOWN WOOD-LIKE CHARACTER WITH A WOOD CONTENT...

GCC HARZart and amber have two things in common: the feel and the resin. While the tree resin in amber provides it with its specific properties, GCC is enriched using synthetic resin. We obtain it from recycled wind power rotor blades among other things. In combination with our unique manufacturing process, this creates a very special material that can be used in a variety of outdoor applications. By recycling raw material components in rotor blades, we save valuable resources from thermal destruction or downcycling into inferior products. contains at least 50% wood fibres from sustainably managed...

“Cradle to Cradle”: The highest certification for sustainability. “Cradle to Cradle” (C2C) means from the birth, or “cradle”, of one generation to the next generation. It is a concept that aims at a consistent closed-loop, circular economy that solves climate and resource problems holistically and for the long term. Recyclable materials are used that are completely biodegradable or that circulate endlessly in technical cycles due to their ability to be completely separated by type. The latter ensures that the components can be recycled with at least the same quality and become a breeding ground...

CIRCULAR. ENDLESS MATERIAL CYCLE WITHOUT WASTE. LINEAR megawood® Main Location Today’s product is tomorrow’s raw material. WITH OUR NEW “CIRCULAR” RECYCLING PLANT, WE ARE PREPARING FOR THE FUTURE. In the linear economy, several million tonnes of valuable raw materials are discarded as waste every year and destroyed. The situation looks a little better in the recycling industry because a portion of the raw materials are reused. But here, too, a large portion ends up in landfills or is incinerated. The optimal solution is therefore a circular economy. At megawood®, we use the term "circular" and...

Use with a clear conscience instead of buying. Disposal is a relic of the past. Returning is the future. Our world is changing and the topics of responsibility for future generations, climate protection and consumption of resources play an ever greater role. We at megawood® fulfil the new needs that arise from this with our recyclable products. Since the essential component of recyclability is the return of the material after use, you have the choice between a classic purchase contract and a contract of use based on usufruct with all our dealers. Transfer of utilisation rights Utilization contract...
