TimberHP, the first and only U.S. manufacturer of wood fiber insulation, has announced a strategic commercial partnership with Weyerhaeuser to expand the availability of high-performing wood-based building solutions across the U.S.
Under the agreement, Weyerhaeuser will hold U.S. commercialization and distribution rights for TimberHP’s line of wood fiber insulation products, including TimberBatt and TimberBoard, within the lumber and building materials (LBM) channel. TimberFill blown-in insulation will remain under its current distribution structure.
TimberHP’s insulation products are made in the U.S. from renewable softwood residuals, providing sustainable, high-performance insulation solutions that meet today’s evolving building needs and standards and help serve the growing demand for energy-efficient, low-carbon building materials. This new partnership will leverage Weyerhaeuser’s transportation logistics, sales capabilities and trusted customer relationships to make TimberHP’s innovative wood fiber insulation technology more widely available to dealers, builders and contractors.
“This partnership represents an important next step for wood fiber insulation in the U.S.,” said Matt O’Malia, CEO and co-founder of TimberHP. “Weyerhaeuser has shaped how North America builds for generations. Bringing their unmatched reach and trusted industry relationships together with our building science platform allows us to scale wood fiber insulation from an emerging category into a mainstream standard and continue developing what’s possible with wood.”
“For more than a century, Weyerhaeuser has been delivering high-quality, sustainable building solutions to the market, and this partnership with TimberHP will allow us to expand our distribution portfolio and bring new, innovative wood fiber insulation products to more customers,” said Neal Shunk, Vice President, Wood Product Sales and Marketing at Weyerhaeuser. “By combining our complementary values and expertise, we can help more builders access sustainable, high-performance solutions, while continuing to advance innovation in wood-based building materials and create additional outlets for wood fiber and residuals.”
Beyond distribution, this partnership brings together the two companies’ commercial and technical
expertise to expand customer education, technical support and product adoption. Weyerhaeuser’s sales and distribution teams will work alongside TimberHP’s technical specialists to provide product education, architectural assistance and installation training to help builders, dealers and contractors successfully incorporate wood fiber insulation into their projects.
The partnership also establishes a foundation for long-term collaboration between the companies, as Weyerhaeuser and TimberHP are exploring opportunities to develop and commercialize new high-performance, wood-based building materials.
