Paul Lewis

Founder & managing director

As founder of The Pallet LOOP, Paul graduated and worked for his family business – HLC (Wood Products) Ltd for 15 years. During that time HLC opened three additional pallet production facilities and increased company revenues from £3.5m to in excess of £50m. In 2019, Paul and his family sold HLC Ltd to Scott Group.

Since selling HLC, Paul has continued his passion for pallets by creating a new distribution model for the industry that’s designed to shift the construction sector away from the current practice of ‘deliver, distribute and discard’ to the more sustainable principles of ‘recover, repair, reuse’.
