Partners and Certifications
Gentek partners with objective, third-party organizations that continuously test our products and verify that we meet the highest standards of performance, quality, value and safety.
The Fenestration & Glazing Industry Alliance (formerly AAMA and IGMA) is internationally recognized for the development of stringent performance standards. Every window and door that boasts FGIA certification undergoes extensive independent testing for resistance to water penetration, air infiltration, structural loads and impact, as well as insulated glass seal durability.
The National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) establishes test criteria that set the standard for performance ratings for manufacturers of window and door products. The primary goal of the NFRC is to provide accurate information on the energy performance of these products.
Super Spacer from Quanex delivers on the promise of warm-air technology.
Windows manufactured by Gentek Building Products with Low-E and argon meet the qualifications as specified by the Window Wise Program.
ENERGY STAR qualified products must meet and exceed minimum Canadian federal energy efficiency standards according to a prescribed performance level for each product area.
This label certifies that products carrying the label meet the operational and optional thermal performance required by the Canadian Standards Association and are subject to independent inspection to verify manufacturer's claims of operational performance and energy efficiency.
