Temple-Inland's forest products business segment operates 19 plants and mills throughout the U.S. and in Canada. These facilities manufacture a wide range of construction and industrial building products, including lumber and studs, wood trim and siding, particleboard, medium density fiberboard (MDF), gypsum wallboard, and fiberboard products. The forest products segment maintains an interest in a gypsum joint venture and an MDF joint venture.

Roof Insulation Board: FiberBase HD is the perfect roof insulation board to help you complete any roofing project reliably and economically. It is durable, easy to handle and easy to apply. It will last for years in both re-roof and new roof applications. The choice of three surface characteristics offers versatility and compatibility to meet a wide range of needs.

Regular Fiberboard Wall Sheathing: Regular Fiberboard Sheathing's interknit wood fibers offer real job-site toughness. Regular Sheathing holds up to normal on-the-job abuse while meeting the demands of stud wall construction. It supplements required wall bracing and increases insulation value for energy-conscious builders.

FiberBrace Structural Sheathing: Install FiberBrace Structural Sheathing on your next project, and discover a whole new level of power to control sound, increase permeability and add insulation value. It offers a complete high-performance package of benefits no other sheathing can keep up with.

Sound-Deadening Fiberboard: SoundChoice153; Available in 1/2"- thick 4x8 panels, SoundChoice is a high-level sound-deadening product that is lightweight, yet rigid for easy installation. It is especially effective in partitions and surrounding walls, and is even suitable for ceilings and floors. It also provides thermal insulation, all at a low installed cost.

Cornice System: TrimCraft Introduced over 10 years ago as the first engineered wood trim, the TrimCraft Cornice System now includes trim, soffit and ceiling panels for proven performance, productivity and low maintenance.

Trim: TrimCraft is available in two thicknesses and multiple widths. TrimCraft is equally valuable whether your application is simple fascia or a complete multilayered trim package.

Soffit: TrimCraft is available in fully primed 16-foot lengths. Carpenters can efficiently install long spans with fewer seams and apply a better paint job for a more consistent, longer-lasting finish.

Ceiling Panels: TrimCraft ceiling panels are the perfect solution for porches, entryways and wide overhangs.

EnduraSiding: Offering the benefits of consistent quality, easy installation and a variety of sizes and surface textures, EnduraSiding offers beauty, reliability and efficiency for home builders and home buyers across the United States.

Lap Siding: User friendly, EnduraSiding lap boards are especially easy to install and require no special tools to apply. They also offer the reliability and efficiency needed for better results in both commercial and residential construction.

Panel Siding: Available in a variety of patterns, EnduraSiding engineered wood panels cover quickly and are a reliable performer in commercial and residential construction. Not only are they practical, they can also be nailed directly to studs or over sheathing for quick and easy installation.

Special Panels: Made from the same reliable 100% wood fiber as our lap and panel siding, EnduraSiding specialty panels offer functional and decorative versatility to complement a variety of architectural styles.

CypressShake: Designed to realistically simulate the distinct appearance of Cypress shakes, this lap pattern is available in a 12-inch width, a 16-foot length and a 1/2-inch thickness. Easy to handle, cut and fasten, CypressShake goes up fast and its factory-primed surface paints quickly and efficiently. Plus, it's backed by a 30-year limited warranty.
