Top thatch was started in 1989 by Johan le Roux and Dewald Heiberg at premises in Montana, Pretoria. Both Johan and Dewald already had 14 years experience in the thatching industry. Before long they owned several plantations in Mpumalanga and soon after opened a wood treatment plant near Roodeplaat Dam. This way they could treat their own wood thus producing the best prices on treated wood in the area.
Since then they also established another branch in 1995 in Fourways, Johannesburg. Top Thatch is one of the biggest suppliers of thatching grass and sells more than 2 million bundles of grass a year. They currently export to Namibia as well.
