Hampton Affiliates

What Hampton Affiliates does

Hampton Lumber is a fourth-generation, family-owned vertically integrated forest products company headquartered in Portland, Oregon. Founded in 1942 with a single sawmill in Willamina, Oregon, the business now operates nine sawmills across Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia, manages approximately 290,000 acres of SFI-certified timberland, and is constructing a tenth sawmill in Allendale County, South Carolina, targeted for early 2027 operations. The company is privately held under the legal entity Hampton Resources, Inc., with ownership concentrated in the third-generation Hampton family (Jamey, Elizabeth, and David Hampton) and no institutional or private equity backing.

The company's core technology is sustainable sawmill manufacturing combined with certified forestry management. It produces dimensional lumber, kiln-dried and green studs, OSB and plywood panels (through distribution relationships with over 25 panel mills), cedar products, clears and industrial grades, and millwork/moulding. Recent acquisitions have extended the product platform: RedBuilt (2024) added engineered wood products for construction, and Idaho Timber (2022) added multi-state remanufacturing. All U.S. and Canadian forestlands are SFI-certified and chain-of-custody is PEFC-certified; a pollinator enhancement partnership with Oregon State University and the Oregon Department of Forestry is a distinctive sustainability program. The company also produces an estimated 2.1 million metric tons of CO2-equivalent storage annually in its lumber output and replants at a 3:1 ratio.

Hampton makes money primarily through B2B commodity sales of lumber and panels sold by unit, container, railcar, or truckload via a direct sales force in Portland and Richmond, BC. Its wholesale arm markets over 1.5 billion board feet of third-party-produced lumber in addition to its own ~2 billion board feet, while export subsidiary TRAPA Forest Products sells into 20+ countries (Japan, China, Taiwan, Korea, and others). Ancillary revenue includes forestland management services, reload/wholesale logistics, vineyards (Tall Tree, Fennwood) and winemaking (Carlton Winemakers Studio). Customers are predominantly construction industry buyers (builders, contractors, developers), wholesale distributors, international importers, and furniture/industrial manufacturers; pricing follows prevailing softwood lumber markets and is not publicly disclosed.
