| The privately-owned business was founded in 1903 by Danish immigrant Hans Andersen and his family in Hudson, Wisconsin, where logs arrived via the St. Croix River. Andersen Corporation, headquartered in Bayport, Minnesota, is now an international enterprise employing more than 9,000 people in locations across North America. With nine manufacturing facilities, Andersen annually manufactures more than six million wood windows, patio doors and storm doors, with sales worldwide. Andersen products, available in more than 600,000 unique shapes and styles, are premier in the industry. Andersen offers two distinct window and patio door portfolios - the Andersen® 400 Series and 200 Series. The 400 Series is the company's classic product line, offering a broad array of the highest-performing products and accessories. The 200 Series concentrates on the most popular sizes, styles and options in a more affordable offering. Both lines are built, backed and serviced with the quality and care customers expect from Andersen. Both lines offer the durability, performance and beauty of the Perma-Shield® system. Andersen Corporation recently purchased two window and door companies named KML and Eagle that produce high quality custom aluminum clad window and door products. These products can be produced in custom color, size and wood species allowing Andersen Corporation to meet any project specification requirements. The international division of Andersen has the ability to provide project specification support including technical assistance and pricing for all Andersen Corporation's products. |
