Our Impact.
Plank Hardware puts care into the parts of a home people touch every day. We design products for those who know that character is revealed in the details.
That belief extends to everything we do: the customers we serve, the people we employ, the suppliers we champion, and the planet we're all responsible for.
At Plank Hardware, we make detail our business.


Climate Action Plan.
We are committed to playing our part in the effort to limit global warming to 1.5°C, aligning our operations and supply chain decisions with that target. From sourcing materials responsibly to reducing our carbon footprint across manufacturing and logistics, we're working to ensure our growth doesn't come at the planet's expense. We believe meaningful climate action starts with accountability, and we're committed to measuring, reporting, and improving our impact year over year.
"Growing this business responsibly has always been important to me and Tom. We are proud of the measures we take to ensure we fully understand and address the needs of our various stakeholders."
Our Commitments.

Our Commitment to Human Rights.
At Plank Hardware, we believe business has a responsibility to people, not just profit. We're committed to respecting human rights in line with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the International Bill of Human Rights, and the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work — in everything from how we source materials to how we treat the people who make our products come to life and into your home.
We believe that we have a duty to actively seek out the truth of our impact not just within the four walls of our office, but within our whole supply chain. This is why we require our suppliers to sign our Supplier Code of Conduct, and agree to audits by responsible sourcing platform Sedex.

Our Commitment to Justice, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion.
We believe that a just, equitable, diverse, and inclusive workplace isn't simply the right thing to do — it's fundamental to who we are and how we work. We are committed to building an environment where every person feels seen, heard, valued, and empowered to bring their whole self to work, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, disability, socioeconomic background, or any other aspect of their identity.
We recognise that inclusion requires more than good intentions. It demands honest self-reflection, ongoing learning, and a willingness to challenge the systems, behaviours, and biases — conscious or unconscious — that create barriers for underrepresented people. We hold ourselves accountable not just to our team, but to the broader communities we operate in and serve.
As a small business, we know that every voice carries weight. That is why we are committed to ensuring that all team members have an equal seat at the table, that opportunities are distributed fairly, and that our culture is one of genuine belonging — not just tolerance. We will listen, we will act, and we will continue to grow.
This is not a destination — it is a continuous journey, and one we are proud to take together.

Our Commitment to Fair Hiring.
At Plank Hardware, we hire based on skill, curiosity, and character — full stop. We're committed to fair, bias-free hiring because the best team is built by casting a wide net, not a familiar one. We carefully consider the wording on our job ads when hiring, and will only ask applicants their wage expectations after first presenting the wage scale available for the role.

Our Postion on Lobbying.
We believe a fair marketplace is built on the quality of ideas and products, not political influence.
We don't participate in lobbying because we'd rather earn your trust through quality products and great service than shape rules in our favour.
