The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) have named JELD-WEN a 2010 ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year for the outstanding contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by manufacturing energy-efficient products and helping to educate consumers about the benefits of energy-efficiency. This honor is especially significant because Natural Resources Canada recognized JELD-WEN of Canada as an ENERGY STAR Participant of the Year in May. According to the DOE, this is the first time a manufacturer has earned the award in both Canada and the U.S. at the same time. JELD-WEN’s accomplishments will be recognized at an awards ceremony in Washington, D.C. on March 18.

Award winners are selected from more than 17,000 organizations that participate in the ENERGY STAR program. Manufacturers vying for the award were judged on many criteria including our qualified windows and doors, promotion of the advantages of the program, and overall commitment to energy savings.
