About
Greenworks is a global leader in the battery-powered outdoor equipment industry, dedicated to producing innovative and sustainable solutions for both residential consumers and professional landscapers. Founded in 2002 by Yin Chen, the company has been at the forefront of the transition from gasoline-powered tools to cordless, eco-friendly alternatives. Greenworks operates as a primary brand under its parent company, Globe Group, a major manufacturer specializing in lithium-ion battery technology, advanced brushless motors, and electronic control systems. This vertical integration, with over 80% of components manufactured in-house across facilities in China, Vietnam, and the United States, allows for meticulous quality control, efficiency, and rapid innovation. The company's global headquarters are in Changzhou, China, with its North American headquarters located in Mooresville, North Carolina, and additional offices in Canada and Europe. The company's product portfolio is extensive, offering a comprehensive range of tools across multiple voltage platforms, including 24V, 40V, 60V, 80V, and the commercial-grade 82V line. This system allows a single battery to power a wide array of equipment, from lawnmowers, string trimmers, and leaf blowers to chainsaws, pressure washers, and power tools, creating a versatile and cost-effective ecosystem for users. Greenworks products are distributed through a wide network of major retailers such as Lowe's, The Home Depot, Walmart, and Amazon, as well as professional dealers. By delivering the power and performance of traditional gas tools without the associated noise, fumes, and maintenance, Greenworks has established a strong reputation in North America and Europe. With over 1,000 patents and a significant investment in research and development, the company continues to push the boundaries of battery technology, integrating smart features and IoT connectivity to enhance user experience and performance.
