Andersen Windows Celebrates Production of 10 Millionth 100 Series Window

Milestone Marked by Donation to Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity Home at The Heights

BAYPORT, Minn., March 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Andersen, America's #1 trusted window and door brand among builders, contractors, architects, and homeowners*, is proud to announce the production of its 10 millionth 100 Series window, a testament to the enduring quality, innovation and craftsmanship that define this popular product line. 

Launched in 2008 amidst the challenges of the Great Recession, Andersen^® 100 Series windows represented a bold and innovative step forward at a time when many in the industry were scaling back. Today, they are one of Andersen's fastest growing product lines and a favorite of 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. 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," said Jessica Ehrlichmann, vice president and general manager Andersen windows and doors business units at Andersen Corporation

To put this milestone into perspective, 10 million 100 Series windows lined up side-by-side is equivalent to the width of approximately 739,200 average-sized homes. This gives a tangible sense of the incredible reach and impact of Andersen's innovation.

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. This initiative is particularly meaningful as 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. 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," said Brandon Berg, senior vice president of research, development, and innovation at Andersen Corporation and board member of Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity.

The Heights is a groundbreaking effort in sustainable homebuilding, aiming to create one of the most energy-efficient developments in Minnesota. This aligns seamlessly with the qualities of Andersen's Fibrex-based 100 Series windows, which are composed of 40 percent reclaimed wood fiber by weight, sourced from the manufacturing of Andersen wood windows. These windows contribute to The Heights' sustainability goals through superior energy efficiency, the use of recycled materials, and long-lasting durability, supporting the project's vision of creating environmentally friendly and cost-effective homes.

"Andersen has been an integral partner in Twin Cities Habitat's mission since 1989, contributing millions in sponsorship and product, and invaluable volunteerism and board service," said Chris Coleman, President & CEO, Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity. "Hundreds of Twin Cities Habitat homeowners have improved home efficiency and lower utility bills thanks to Andersen windows."

Additionally, each facility that assembles 100 Series products – Garland, TX; Goodyear, AZ; and Bayport, MN– hosted celebrations to recognize the incredible work of their teams. Employees gathered to reflect on their contributions to this momentous accomplishment, enjoying events that included heartfelt speeches, celebratory treats, and a commemorative window for signing.

Andersen's 100 Series windows are designed to offer durability, sustainability and energy efficiency. These products feature low-maintenance exteriors with clean corners for a refined look that won't rot, flake, blister, or chip. Available in a variety of rich dark colors, the finishes are made to last and are designed to retain stability and rigidity in all climates.
