About Us - What We Do

PLANKWALL® was established by Scott Yates in 1992. Over more than 30 years in business, Plankwall has developed a number of proprietary products and offerings serving different markets and types of customers.  From bespoke shopfitting units and wall displays for a wide range of New Zealand retail customers, to grooved MDF panels for the building industry, to our Stickman® joinery sold in New Zealand and North America the business is proud to offer a diverse range of products and services. 

 In 2024 Scotty handed over the reins of his company to new owners - husband & wife Chris and Katie - who are building on Scotty's legacy and growing the business for the future. 

Our East Tamaki plant processes two distinct types of PLANKWALL® (Grooved MDF) panels.  The first is for use as interior wall or ceiling building panels, and the second is as the basis for shopfitting and wall display systems. The technology is unrivaled anywhere in the world for quality, speed of processing and wood dust management.

We offer a wide range of products in our PLANKWALL® merchandising and display systems. Wall panels, stand alone units, a huge range of display accessories and can help you design custom display and merchandising systems whatever your need. 

Our STICKMAN ® aluminium extrusions are machined and assembled with specialised proprietary tools and accessories in New Zealand.
