PrimeLock and PrimeClassic, Makers of Innovative Wood Trim, Announce Rebranding, Setting the Stage for Expansion and Growth in 2025

Business Wire
PrimeLock and PrimeClassic, leading brands of wood trim, siding,
patterns, and mouldings, are proud to announce their official
rebranding to Princeton Fine Wood. This strategic change represents
the company’s focus on manufacturing fine wood products through its
use of Eastern White Pine, and its proprietary process and
technology. It also marks a significant milestone in the company’s
evolution, expansion, and focus on resolving the challenges of
traditional wood trim.
Princeton Fine Wood’s parent company, Matra Group, has been
manufacturing precision wood products for more than 25 years, most
recently under the PrimeLock and PrimeClassic brand names. However,
as the brands have grown and diversified, the names no longer fully
represent their vision and ambitions. With a goal to further expand
into the U.S. market, Princeton Fine Wood's new name represents its
focus on creating exceptional interior and exterior wood products
that challenge the traditional use of wood trim and capture the
history of wood as a fundamental building material.
“Our rebranding to Princeton Fine Wood is more than just a name
change,” said Jordan McKay, Director of Marketing for Matra Group.
“It’s a reflection of our growth, our vision, and our dedication to
delivering innovative solutions to our customers. It signifies a
new era for our team, partners, and customers, an evolution in
which we redefine wood trim and continue to push the boundaries of
innovation.”
As part of the rebranding, Princeton Fine Wood has launched a
new logo, tagline, and website (princetonfinewood.com), designed to
communicate its modern identity, forward-thinking approach, and
unique uses of Eastern White Pine. While the look and feel of the
brand are changing, the company’s commitment to culture,
high-quality service, sustainability, partnership, and
next-generation manufacturing remains the same.
Princeton Fine Wood products are currently available for
purchase through PFP Distribution, formerly known as Princeton
Forest Products, which also rebranded in 2024. The company is set
to expand to new markets and grow its distribution network in
2025.
“This name change embodies our dedication to growth,
sustainability, and craftsmanship,” said Jean-Francois Drouin,
Co-President of Matra Group. “It positions us to expand into new
markets and share our precise, rot-resistant, and dimensionally
stable wood product with the world.”
