TimberHP Marks a New Era in Sustainable Manufacturing
New production line in Madison marks a significant step for U.S. manufacturing and eco-friendly building materials.
TimberHP has officially begun production of TimberBoard™, the first dry process wood fiber insulation board manufactured in the United States. As they gear up for shipping orders to retailers and distributors from their Madison facility, this marks a turning point for sustainable practices in construction.
Milestone in Innovation and Sustainability
This new TimberBoard product represents not just a breakthrough in insulation for light-frame construction, but also embodies American innovation in sustainable manufacturing. After extensive research and investment, TimberHP is thrilled to deliver this high-performance insulation to the North American market.
Exceptional Performance and Versatility
TimberBoard combines the advantages of rigid foam or mineral wool with the moisture-handling and sustainability benefits of wood fiber. Builders seeking a vapor-open alternative will find TimberBoard to be a renewable, recyclable option proudly made in the U.S.
Matthew O'Malia, CEO of TimberHP, remarked, "TimberBoard is more than a product launch—it's a milestone for U.S. manufacturing. At a time when American industry is reimagining how and where we make things, we're proving that sustainable, high-performance building materials can be made right here at home."
Reinvigorating U.S. Manufacturing
TimberHP's facility breathes new life into a former paper mill, transforming it into a modern hub for renewable, wood-based insulation production. This initiative showcases how rural industry can flourish alongside sustainable innovation, especially as supply chain resilience becomes a priority.
