Andersen Windows Reaches 10 Million Production Milestone

BAYPORT, Minn., March 27, 2025 – In a momentous occasion, Andersen Windows has proudly announced the production of its 10 millionth 100 Series window. This achievement underscores the brand's commitment to quality, innovation, and craftsmanship, reinforcing its status as America's #1 trusted window and door brand among builders, contractors, architects, and homeowners.

Since its launch in 2008, during the difficult times of the Great Recession, the 100 Series has emerged as one of Andersen’s most successful product lines. It was introduced at a time when many competitors were retracting, offering promise and innovative solutions to builders and homeowners alike. Designed from Andersen's exclusive Fibrex® material, the 100 Series merges wood's strength with the low-maintenance appeal of vinyl.

Jessica Ehrlichmann, vice president and general manager of the Andersen windows and doors division, stated, “The 100 Series was engineered to meet modern standards for homeowners, combining aesthetics, strength, and environmental responsibility at a competitive price.” The popularity of these windows is evident, and to highlight this milestone, if you were to lay the 10 million 100 Series windows end-to-end, they would stretch an extraordinary distance equivalent to the width of approximately 739,200 average-sized homes.

In a gesture symbolizing community support and sustainability, Andersen has decided to donate 100 Series windows to a Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity home situated in St. Paul’s “The Heights” neighborhood. This community project is significant, comprising 147 mid-density affordable homes, marking Habitat for Humanity’s largest endeavor to date. The donation coincides with the proximity of Andersen’s Bayport manufacturing site, which produces the 100 Series line.

Brandon Berg, senior vice president of research, development, and innovation at Andersen Corporation, emphasized, “This milestone represents the hard work of our team at Andersen. We are proud of the impact our 100 Series windows have made across numerous homes in America and are eager to continue our support for Habitat for Humanity, making affordable homeownership accessible to more families.”

The Heights initiative is a pioneering development focused on crafting energy-efficient homes. It aligns perfectly with the features of Andersen’s 100 Series windows, which boast 40% reclaimed wood fiber content, sourced from the manufacturing of Andersen’s wood windows. These unique windows not only enhance energy efficiency but also reinforce sustainability, ensuring homes remain environmentally friendly and cost-effective.

Chris Coleman, President and CEO of Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity, highlighted Andersen's role, stating, “Andersen has been a critical partner in our mission since 1989, contributing millions through sponsorship, product donations, and volunteer efforts. Countless homeowners have experienced improved energy efficiency and lower utility costs, thanks to Andersen windows.”

In celebration, each of Andersen’s facilities that produce the 100 Series windows—Garland, TX; Goodyear, AZ; and Bayport, MN—held events to honor the achievements of their teams. Employees took part in ceremonies filled with inspiring speeches, festive treats, and a commemorative window for their signatures.

The efficiency, durability, and sustainability of Andersen's 100 Series windows make them a top choice in modern home design. Offering low-maintenance exteriors that resist rotting, flaking, and chipping, these windows come in a diverse palette of rich colors designed to maintain their beauty across all climates. Their robust design and energy-efficient features resonate deeply with a growing consumer demand for sustainable living solutions.

As Andersen Windows celebrates this remarkable achievement, it also reinforces its commitment to pioneering advancements in the industry—transforming homes for families across America while continuing to advocate for sustainability and community welfare.
