TORONTO — JELD-WEN® of Canada, a subsidiary of JELD-WEN Holding, has been named the ENERGY STAR® Manufacturer of the Year in the Windows and Doors category for 2022.
The Energy Star Canada Awards recognize organizations that have made contributions to protecting the environment through energy efficiency.
JELD-WEN of Canada says it has won the manufacturer of the year award six times within the last decade, bringing their total Energy Star® award count to nine. The Energy Star program is recognized internationally.
“The JELD-WEN team makes quality and innovative thinking its top priority,” said Robert Conway, vice president and general manager, JELD-WEN of Canada in a statement.
“We’d like to thank ENERGY STAR for this recognition, and we are grateful to be recognized for our efforts and focus on energy-efficiency, but our best work is still ahead of us. We are really excited about the future and the products we plan to bring to the market.”
In early 2020, JELD-WEN of Canada launched the KEEP OUTSIDE OUT; an educational campaign designed to inform consumers on the benefits of energy-efficient windows.
“In today’s environment, consumers are eager for education to help them choose the right products for their homes,” said Jeff Pigeon, JELD-WEN of Canada’s senior product line manager in a statement.
“Our goal is to make it easy for our customers to understand stackable rebates and their potential annual cost savings.”
In 2021, the company continued to develop its education campaign by adding calculators for energy-efficiency and by aggregating Canadian window and door rebate program information.
The company says its plans for 2022 include more information and tools to support consumers in their efforts to leverage rebate programs in Canada. These programs include the Greener Homes Grant, a new federal grant program that rewards Canadian homeowners looking to renovate their homes with up to $5,000 in rebates.
