Wood from sustainable plantations

Garnica is a leader and force for change in the transition toward local and sustainable raw materials over imported tropical woods.

Our process uses local poplar, pine and eucalyptus wood from European plantations located mainly in Spain and France.

Poplar, an ally in the fight against climate change

Poplar is one of the species that has the greatest CO2 absorption on the planet, averaging 22 tons per hectare/year. Poplar is also outstanding for its rapid growth and water purification ability. This in turn means products derived from poplar are large carbon dioxide collectors. Every m3 of panel absorbs 650-700 Kg of CO2, returning significant amounts of oxygen into the atmosphere.

Thanks to our poplar-based products, we have the EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) certifications that back the sustainability of our panels. You can see all our EPD certifications here.

In addition, our products provide credits for certifications such as LEED and BREEAM, international references in sustainable construction. Click here to see the reports. 

The culture of the circular economy and zero waste

Circularity of processes and minimization of waste are two fundamental objectives for Garnica. We’re committed to a lean production model based on sustainability and continuous improvement, leveraging the full range of available resources by integrating by-products into our processes or providing them for use in other industries.

Promotion of rural areas

Garnica's locations in rural areas contribute to job creation and quality of life improvements in local environments.

Our centers, located mainly in cities with fewer than 5,000 residents, create secure jobs that allow people to settle, expand services and improve the area’s infrastructure.

We conduct our business activities in accordance with the legal provisions in force and we comply with the applicable requirements in terms of quality, environment, health and safety and/or chain of custody as set forth in the standards to which the organisation has subscribed.
