Paged

What Paged does

Paged (legal entity: PAGED Plywood S.A.) is a Polish-headquartered manufacturer and supplier of plywood and blockboard, founded in 1931 and operating six production facilities across Poland and Estonia. The company manufactures raw plywood (hardwood species including birch, alder, beech and coniferous pine), film-faced plywood for concrete formwork, structural plywood, non-flammable/fire-retardant plywood, and specialized variants including moisture-resistant, non-slip, reinforced, and ultra-thin panels. Paged also holds registered trademarks on specialty products: StringPly® flexible plywood for curved forming, ELKON® transformer plywood for electrical engineering, FreePly low-emission plywood carrying five international certifications, and BirchPly Premium as the highest surface-grade offering. R&D and product testing are housed in Paged LabTech, with additional research cooperation with universities.

The business operates a sales-led B2B go-to-market, distributing directly to industrial customers in construction, interior design/furnishings, transport (automotive, rail, maritime), and packaging across nearly 80 markets worldwide. Pricing is quote-based rather than published, and revenue is generated through one-time product sales of plywood volumes rather than recurring contracts. With over 2,000 employees and a position among the five largest plywood manufacturers in the European Union, Paged also holds the related entities PAGED Plywood Sp. z o.o. and Paged Morąg S.A., indicating a small group structure. Leadership transitioned in February 2026 with the appointment of Przemysław Kłobut as President of the Management Board.
