Time travel – from dinosaurs to the cycle of life
From dinosaurs to the circular economy
A journey through time
Imagine being able to witness the last 200 million years. What would you see? Perhaps you would witness majestic dinosaurs roaming through prehistoric forests. You might see our ancestors taking their first steps as they began to walk upright and use tools. This idea may be fanciful, but it offers an interesting perspective on our history and the development of human civilization.
Today, we are facing major challenges in the way we use natural resources and generate waste. Our current economic system, which is based on the principle of “take, produce, dispose”, is neither sustainable nor viable for the future. We need to move from a linear economic model to a circular economy in which raw materials are reused and waste is minimized. One example of this is our production of megawood® decking and other products made from recycled materials, for which no new trees need to be felled and which are manufactured using green energy.
It is encouraging to see that steps in the right direction are already being taken. Companies and individuals are working to make their production and consumption habits more sustainable. But this is just the beginning. If we humans want to successfully experience the fourth million years on this planet, we need to fundamentally change our understanding of the economy and progress. It's not just about being less harmful, but actively beneficial and positive for our environment and society. Only in this way can we ensure that future generations can also take a well-deserved break without overburdening the earth.

A unique material,
two characters.
GCC (German Compact Composite) is a wood-based material that contains up to 75% natural fibers in the basic recipe. This is supplemented with high-performance polymers from processed plastics from initial industrial applications.
Cradle to cradle –
endless cycle of materials
If there is one thing that is definitely in our genes, it is the cradle to cradle® principle. This is a concept that aims to achieve a consistent closed-loop circular economy and solves climate and resource problems holistically and sustainably.
Overview of the product range of decking boards
Our decking range is available in two material variants: GCC HOLZart & GCC HARZart and currently includes seven plank categories with eight different surfaces, four different widths and a total of 15 colors.
Usufruct with a usage contract
The topics of responsibility for future generations, climate protection and the consumption of resources are playing an increasingly important role. With all our dealers, you have the choice between a classic purchase agreement and a license agreement based on usufruct.
