Harith Green Carpenter

Harith Ridzuan, also known as Harith Green Carpenter (HGC), specializes in the manufacturing of sustainable lifestyle products. As a second-generation leader, Harith has led his family-founded business from tradition to innovation and has been dedicated to producing eco-friendly wood products since 2012.

As a result of this business transition, his brainchild ‘The Green Factory’ has garnered local and international attention for its commitment to sustainable manufacturing. This recognition includes Japan’s 2018 Good Design Award, the 2018 Europa Sustainability Award, the 2019 MTCC Sustainability Awards for Product Innovation & Diversification Award, and the 2022 Malaysia Timber Council Industry Award for Environment & Sustainability Distinction.

Under his guidance, Harith’s organization currently manages three eco brands and has exported products to over 20 countries. He has also been invited to speak to various stakeholders, including youth, academics, corporates, industry leaders, architects, designers, and local business owners, all seeking to explore the sustainable route. He continues his mission to advocate for Malaysia’s commitment to a greener future.

Making an impact to me means using my skills and creativity to create beautiful and sustainable products that have a positive impact on the environment and society. It is to inspire others to think about sustainability in a new way and to show that it is possible to create awesome things without harming the planet.
