Cameron Ashley Building Products announced it will be the exclusive, full-line wholesale distribution partner to TimberHP, a dry-process wood fiber insulation manufacturer. Madison, Maine-based TimberHP develops and manufactures high-performing, cost-competitive wood fiber insulation that the company says is healthy for people and the environment.
Made from wood chips leftover sustainable forest harvesting and lumber production, TimberHP products are resistant to moisture liabilities, mold and fire, and offer properties to reduce heating and cooling loads, according to TimberHP.
“We are thrilled to partner with TimberHP and look forward to introducing their high-quality and innovative products to our customers. We support TimberHP’s mission of sustainable, environmentally responsible solutions during this critical time when demand for cost-effective, negative carbon footprint products are high,” says Donny DeMarie, president and CEO of Cameron Ashley. “We are excited to play a small role in helping to revitalize Maine’s economy and are pumped up to be supporting better performing solutions for both people and the planet.”
TimberFill, dense-pack and attic insulation, will begin shipping in July and will be stocked in Cameron Ashley’s eastern distribution centers. TimberHP will start production of TimberBat, sound-dampening and thermal bat insulation, in the fall of 2023. TimberBoard, carbon-negative continuous insulation board, will be produced in the winter of 2023. Once available, TimberBat and TimberBoard will only be offered through Cameron Ashley distribution centers.
“With code driving more insulation, as well as tighter assemblies, the U.S. market needs insulating solutions that manage moisture, elevate comfort, and reduce installation liabilities,” Scot Dionne, chief marketing officer at TimberHP, said. “We’re so excited to be partnering with Cameron Ashley to launch a new generation of cavity and continuous insulations to ensure higher performance while reducing risk in our buildings.”
South Carolina-based Cameron Ashley is a wholesale distributor of roofing, insulation, gypsum, siding, and other specialty building products. The company operates a network of more than 50 distribution centers across the United States.
