RedBuilt Appoints Ted Osterberger As CEO
Hampton Lumber and affiliate, RedBuilt, are pleased to announce the appointment of Ted Osterberger as Chief Executive Officer of RedBuilt, effective June 1, 2025. Osterberger succeeds Don Schwabe, who will retire later this year after ten years of leadership.
Based in Boise, Id., RedBuilt is a provider of innovative engineered wood products and structural solutions. Osterberger currently serves as RedBuilt’s Vice President of Operations and brings over 25 years of industry experience to his new role.
“Ted’s deep knowledge of the business, his unwavering commitment to people, and his proven leadership make him the ideal choice to lead RedBuilt into the future,” says Randy Schillinger, CEO of Hampton Lumber, RedBuilt’s parent company.
Schwabe will remain with the company through September 1, 2025, to ensure a smooth transition of leadership.
“It has been the greatest honor of my career to lead RedBuilt and to work alongside such a talented and committed group of people,” says Schwabe. “I am also incredibly grateful for having had the opportunity to carry on the legacy of Harold “Red” Thomas, Tom Denig, and Kurt Liebich. And now, as part of Hampton Lumber and under Ted’s leadership, the best is yet to come for RedBuilt.”
Schwabe’s tenure included the successful acquisition of RedBuilt by Hampton Lumber in 2024.
