OrePac Building Products, a wholesale supplier of interior and exterior building materials, has purchased specialty wood products manufacturer Western Timber Products. The deal is expected to close near the beginning of April 2024.
“Having worked with Western Timber Products for some time, I admire and appreciate the hard work and care of the team which shows in the quality of products they produce,” Brad Hart, president and CEO of OrePac, said. “This investment supports our goal of bringing the industry more custom value-added products and services, with the speed and agility that makes OrePac a preferred source.”
Coeur d’Alene, Idaho-based Western Timber Products offers a suite of custom milling capabilities and a wide selection of wood species, with OrePac planning to expand and bolster that offering even further post acquisition.
“After 40 years, I am proud to see our business carried on through OrePac’s ownership,” Dan Seid, owner and president of Western Timber Products, said. “It was obvious that OrePac and Western Timber share the same core values and passion for growth in the specialty softwoods segment.
OrePac Building Products is a family-owned business founded in 1977. The company operates 10 locations across the western United States.
