Wood Products
Most brokers treat wood products like any other manufacturing account. Team Haugen does not. We serve the full wood products supply chain across the Pacific Northwest, from forestry and logging through sawmills, panel and secondary manufacturing, wholesale, retail lumber yards, and the emerging mass timber space.
You need a broker who knows the difference between a sawmill and a secondary manufacturer.
Team Haugen is based in the heart of Oregon's wood products economy. We know the regulatory environment, the seasonal exposures, the carrier appetite in this geography, and the community, because we live and work here too.
Team Haugen serves every link in the chain, from the stand of timber to the lumber yard counter and the mass timber jobsite, not just one slice of it.
The upstream operations that bring the resource to market, with the seasonal, equipment, and fire exposures that come with working in the woods.
The high-hazard core of the industry, where business income, property values, and fire prevention drive the program.
Where the product reaches the market, plus the fast-growing mass timber space that is reshaping how the Pacific Northwest builds.
Two senior advisors lead the practice, backed by wood products, claims, and surety specialists who know this industry.

Logan's approach is direct: understand the business first, build the program around the risk.

SVP · HUB International Northwest
Charlie O'Dell is HUB's Forest Products Practice Leader, the person the firm turns to when the account is large, the risk is complex, and the answer has to be right. With over 30 years in the insurance industry and a career built around the wood products space, Charlie oversees HUB's most significant forestry and wood accounts across the Pacific Northwest and beyond. He doesn't just know the insurance market for this industry, he's helped shape it.
That depth of experience means Charlie understands how a sawmill thinks about downtime, how a logging contractor navigates a hard renewal, and what a manufacturer actually needs from a property program when fire season arrives. That fluency is what separates a conversation with Charlie from a conversation with any other broker.

What matters most to you? That's what HUB Team Haugen protects.
Backed by HUB International, one of the largest insurance brokerages in North America.
Team Haugen brings carrier relationships and capacity that regional brokers simply can't access. Over $734M in wood products premium means real leverage at renewal, backed by a team that lives and works in the Pacific Northwest.
Through Sam Orcutt, Associate Director of HUB's US Forestry & Wood Products practice, the team carries intimate operational knowledge of lumber and wood products manufacturing, from business income exposure to fire prevention risk and insurable value assessments.
What that fluency covers:
Don Watson is a licensed attorney embedded directly on Team Haugen, not at a law firm, and not at an extra cost. He brings legal-grade rigor to coverage disputes, claims advocacy, contract review, and acquisition diligence. That is unique in the market.
Where Don works for you:
Xander D'Arcy is a Certified Claims Adjuster with 14+ years managing WC claims from first report to resolution. He works as an employer advocate alongside carrier teams, not against them, focused on protecting your experience modifier and reducing long-term cost.
How that protects your program:
5,080+ wood products clients. $734M+ in premium. Proof of scale and carrier access no regional competitor can match.
These figures come from HUB's national wood products footprint, spanning 1,900 forestry and forest services accounts and 750 logging operations. Premium concentrated in the segments where your operation lives means real standing with the carriers who price your risk.
