JELD-WEN’s commitment to resource-responsible manufacturing is rooted in its beginnings. Historically, netting full utilization from a log simply made good economic sense. Almost forty years ago, JELD-WEN perfected a proprietary process for using wood waste to make facings for our Molded interior doors.
Today, JELD-WEN uses recycled and reused materials to produce hundreds of thousands of interior doors and other products each month, including JELD-WEN® Molded interior doors and Wood Composite garage doors with facings and trim boards made of 100 percent recycled wood fiber. These practices continue to be central to JELD-WEN’s mission to be the low-cost producer in the window and door industry, and they have contributed to our goal of being the clear global leader in the sale of reliable windows and doors.
 In addition, JELD-WEN’s Molded interior doors and Wood Composite garage doors are Scientific Certification System (SCS) certified, which means that the door facings contain at least 51 percent recycled materials. Our vinyl windows are produced using 15 percent recycled vinyl waste.
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. By recycling the packaging material, our customers can help us protect the environment. |
