If you’ve ever had to replace an old window or door, you’ve probably heard of Andersen Corporation. As the largest window and door manufacturer in North America, Andersen is a major player in the home improvement industry and is—in more ways than one—a household name.

Andersen Corporation has been around since 1903—more than a century’s worth of quality, innovation and craftsmanship. They were founded in Hudson, Wisconsin by Danish immigrant Hans Andersen, but have since moved their headquarters to Bayport, Minnesota, where they operate a 2.8-million-square-foot facility. Today, they are a multi-award-winning corporation with locations across North America and a global product reach.

As impressive as all that sounds, however, it is in each door and window installation that homeowners really experience the Andersen difference. But before we get into that, let’s get to know the company a bit more.

The Andersen Difference

  • They aim high. Andersen Corporation’s vision is “[to] lead the window and door industry by creating products and services that are different and better, as measured by our customers.”
  • They are committed to protecting the environment. This commitment can be seen first in their products, which are designed to be highly energy efficient. They also have ongoing sustainability initiatives that impact everything from where they source their materials to their customers’ homes.

    • Absolute Craftsmanship (precision and care)
