We make product quality and safety our highest priority as we build reliable, responsible solutions for a safer tomorrow. Our exterior building products form the foundation of both our business and our work to support the development of caring communities. We design each product carefully with a customer-centric focus, anticipating the needs and voices of our consumers and communities.

PRODUCT QUALITY

SETTING A HIGH BAR

We have installed multiple processes to ensure product quality. Our customer-first approach considers the end-user requirements of our products and feedback from longtime users. We hold various accreditations and quality certifications for our business’ systems and management processes to meet these ends.

OUR PRODUCT INNOVATION ENGINE

COMMITTED TO EXPANSIVE INNOVATION

At Cornerstone Building Brands, we work to continually develop new solutions and processes that improve product performance, energy efficiency and ease of use for our customers. Our Expansive Innovation Engine is a set of strategies that enables us to identify new growth capabilities beyond our core strengths. To date, we’ve used it to support the exploration of new technology enablement such as AI and robotics, expansion of our innovation pipeline, and more.

PRIORITIZING PRODUCT QUALITY & SAFETY

Across our Aperture, Surface and Shelter Solutions, we maintain a strong emphasis on quality and a commitment to having our products at our customers’ job sites and locations when they need them, performing just like we promised. Our family of leading brands has a legacy of more than 100 years and we invest annually to make sure our brands build on that legacy and evolve as we move forward.

INNOVATING PRODUCT QUALITY TESTING TO IMPROVE PERFORMANCE

We go to great lengths to ensure the quality and reliability of all our products. Through our process of submerging windows in water, we can
fully inspect for potential leaks in the seal that may result in window cloudiness or condensation within double panes. Using this industry-leading window dunk test, we reduced the likelihood of window seal failure by 40%.

SUSTAINABLE STEWARDSHIP

LASTING PRODUCTS THAT MAKE A POSITIVE IMPACT

Cornerstone Building Brands’ aspiration to be a premier exterior building solutions company includes environmental stewardship throughout our operations, products’ life cycles and communities. Our stewardship efforts involve compliance with applicable environmental laws, regulations and other requirements, while also initiating footprint reduction strategies to help secure a safer tomorrow. We believe our manufacturing facilities can be compliant, efficient and maintain consistently high quality while reducing freshwater and raw material consumption and environmental impact.

In 2017, we formalized a partnership with a national home builder to reclaim scrap vinyl siding, reduce packaging and decrease the amount of wood needed for vinyl siding transportation by using bulk crates. In 2023, our program has reclaimed more than 1.6 million pounds of scrap for recycling, and we granted credit to our customers for their participation. Additionally, approximately 5,750 bulk crates were returned, repaired and reused.
