BAYPORT, Minn. — Andersen Corp. celebrated the production of its 10 millionth 100 Series window at its Goodyear, Arizona plant.
In a press release, the company called the achievement “a testament to the enduring quality, innovation and craftsmanship that define this popular product line.”
Andersen launched the 100 Series windows in 2008 amidst the Great Recession. Today, they are one of Andersen's fastest growing product lines used by builders and homeowners across the country.
"Crafted from Andersen's exclusive Fibrex material, the 100 Series combines the strength of wood with the low-maintenance features of vinyl, making it a cornerstone of contemporary home design,” said Jessica Ehrlichmann, vice president and general manager Andersen windows and doors business units at Andersen. “The 100 Series was designed to meet the needs of modern homeowners, providing a combination of beauty, strength, and sustainability at a competitive price point."
If the 10 million 100 Series windows were lined up side-by-side, they would be equivalent to the width of approximately 739,200 average-sized homes, according to Andersen.
In honor of this achievement, Andersen is donating 100 Series windows for a Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity home in St. Paul's "The Heights" neighborhood. The Heights is a new community on the Greater East Side of St. Paul, where Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity is constructing 147 mid-density affordable homeownership units, making it their largest project to date. Andersen's Bayport, Minn., manufacturing plant, which manufactures the 100 Series line, is located nearby.
"This milestone is a testament to the dedication and hard work of our team at Andersen,” said Brandon Berg, senior vice president of research, development, and innovation at Andersen Corporation and board member of Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity. “We are proud to see the impact our 100 Series windows have had on homes across America, and we are excited to continue to support the work of Habitat for Humanity to make stable, affordable homeownership a reality for more families."
