Window & Door Honors the Industry's Innovators in Products, Manufacturing and Marketing
Window & Door has announced its 2008 Crystal Achievement Award winners. Selected by a panel of judges representing all segments of the industry, the awards recognize significant innovations and achievements in window and door technology, manufacturing, and marketing.
"When so many headlines are gloomy, it's a real pleasure to put the focus on new products and technologies that highlight creativity and ingenuity and the growth potential of our industry. Our Crystal Achievement Award winners this year are delivering some real new options to homeowners," says John Swanson, editor/associate publisher.
