History
Spearheaded by Mr. Rajesh Mittal, the company saw its initial developments from a saw-mill in 1984 to a plywood manufacturing plant in Nagaland in the year 1988. It was on the 28th of November, 1990, that the company was incorporated as "Mittal Laminates Private Limited". There was an amalgamation between Greenply Industries and Mittal Laminates Limited on April 1, 1994. Later in 1996, the organization was renamed as Greenply Industries Ltd and the flagship brand of Greenply was launched in 1997.
There were other significant developments that took place as well. The brand Optima was launched in 2008 while 2011 witnessed the launch of brand Ecotec in the economy segment. 2001 observed the launch of Green Club - a premium-grade plywood that introduced 300% lifetime warranty (a first in the industry).
However, very recently in 2019-20, the premium portfolio segment of plywood consisting of Green Club Plus 700, Green Club 5 Hundred and Green Platinum was upgraded and improved (with new features & warranty terms) to meet the increasing requirement of safe & healthy homes. India’s first zero-emission (E-0) plywood, Green Club Plus 700,[5][6][7] was launched in 2020.
