From its beginnings in 1893 as a single sawmill, Temple-Inland has been dedicated to manufacturing outstanding products to meet customer needs.
Temple Inland supplies solid wood lumber, gypsum board and fiberboard products for residential and commercial construction projects. Whether for new construction or remodeling, do-it-yourselfers or professionals, the expanding product line provides a range of solutions to today’s building challenges.
Temple-Inland manufactures a full line of quality gypsum board products for fast, cost-efficient wall construction in both residential and commercial applications. Available in a range of dimensions and with a choice of special performance properties, this is one of its fastest growing product lines.
Temple-Inland fiberboard is a medium-density, semi-rigid building material composed of wood fibers and binders compressed under heat and pressure into large panels of various sizes. Lightweight and cost efficient, it has been a reliable part of the construction industry for almost fifty years.
SoundChoice is the best choice for reducing noise in a variety of commercial or residential applications. Whether constructing professional buildings, nursing homes, hospitals, hotels, single or multi-family housing, noise reduction is a growing concern.
Available in 1/2"- thick 4x 8 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.
