Andersen Windows recently broke ground on an expansion of its Renewal by Andersen manufacturing campus in Cottage Grove, Minn., according to a news release. The expansion, adjacent to the existing facility, will include a 350,000-square foot Value Add Center to accommodate manufacturing, warehouse, and office space.
“We are excited to expand our Renewal by Andersen operations to support the rapid growth of this business and the signature service our customers know and expect,” said Andersen Corporation Chairman and CEO Jay Lund. “We are proud to invest in our Minnesota-based operations and are grateful for the support of the City of Cottage Grove, the Minnesota Department of Economic Development led by Commissioner Grove, and Governor Walz and the State of Minnesota.”
Andersen plans to invest more than $35 million in the expansion and plans to add at least 125 new jobs to support growing demand for products made by Renewal by Anderson. The space will alleviate space constraints at the existing facility and the Value Add Center will reorganize the existing manufacturing facility for future expansions.
“This expansion is a strategic opportunity to increase our capacity to meet growing customer demand for our signature full-service window replacement services,” said Paul Delahunt, president of Renewal by Andersen. “Delighting our customers every day is our top priority and key to our success. This is an exciting time for Renewal as we celebrate the growth of our business.”
Andersen has achieved significant growth in recent years in large part due to products made with its proprietary Fibrex engineered composite, including its Renewal by Andersen product lines.
