JELD-WEN’s commitment to resource-responsible manufacturing is rooted in our beginning. Historically, netting full utilization from a log simply made good economic sense. Almost 40 years ago, JELD-WEN perfected a proprietary process for using wood waste to make facings for our Molded interior door.

Today, JELD-WEN uses recycled materials to produce high-value doors and windows every day. Our window glass and aluminum cladding contain post-consumer recycled content. JELD-WEN^® Vinyl windows feature up to 15 percent recycled vinyl content. We have also earned thirdparty certification through Scientific Certification System (SCS) of products made from recycled wood.

JELD-WEN^® Molded hollow core slab interior doors are SCS certified to include at least 60 percent recycled content. The facings themselves are made from 80 percent recycled content.
JELD-WEN^® Wood Composite garage door facings are SCS certified to include 80 percent recycled content.
JELD-WEN^® Molded Bifold hollow core interior doors are SCS certified to include at least 25 percent recycled content.

At every opportunity we will encourage our customers to minimize the use of wood pallets and to recycle the packaging material used by JELD-WEN for our window and door products, including cardboard and plastic wrap.
