We acknowledge that we live, work, meet and travel land on the traditional territories of many First Nations and Indigenous Peoples that have cared for this land for millennia, now called Canada. Our head office is based in Chilliwack, BC – home to the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Stó:lō Coast Salish peoples.
We recognize that land acknowledgements are a first step towards the larger process of reconciliation between non-Indigenous and Indigenous peoples in Canada. This practice is inspired by the 94 calls to action contained in the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada report, and helps Canadians recognize and respect Indigenous peoples’ inherent kinship beliefs when it comes to the land. It serves as a starting place to change how the land is seen and talked about.
Energy Star, a voluntary labeling program administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, creates opportunities for residential window, door and skylight manufacturers.
By making the declaration, British Columbia has formally decided to shift its economy away from additional LNG expansion and towards one based on clean energy and green products. It is one that makes use of the province’s capacity to produce a sizable amount of renewable electricity and guarantees that projects in the oil and gas sector are in line with B.C.’s climate goals.
Have you ever wondered about the process of making a window that is completely smooth and clear? Many are unaware of the complex procedure to create the gorgeous windows that are frequently look through in homes, and residential buildings. Glass is produced in a factory through a rigorous process that can reach temperatures of up to 1500 degrees Celsius!
Building an energy efficient home comes down to the following factors; proper air sealing, high performance windows, reducing thermal bridging, using the right type of insulation, mechanical ventilation, and strategically locating your heating/AC systems.
When it comes to designing modern homes and buildings, every detail matters. That’s why architects and designers turn to the Visionaire™ Architectural Aluminum Series by Westeck Windows and Doors. These windows and doors are more than just functional—they’re a statement of style, performance, and precision.
At Westeck Windows, we don’t just manufacture premium windows—we collaborate on architectural expression. Throughout the Pacific Northwest and Western Canada, architects, interior designers, and custom home builders' partner with us to push the boundaries of modern fenestration.
At Westeck, we understand that windows are more than just a building feature—they shape the character, efficiency, and comfort of any space. As architectural styles continue to evolve, so does the demand for cutting-edge window design. Here’s how we are leading the way in North America with the latest trends.
Windows, doors and skylights may appear passive, but they’re always performing. High-performance products regulate the flow of heat and light that comes in and out of your home, keeping your electricity costs low.
The competition once again had a record-breaking year; small and large businesses from across Canada submitted over 1000 entries. Nearly 300 volunteer industry experts evaluated entries based on project descriptions, images, and other supporting information such as floor plans included in the submission packages.
British Columbia has long been considered a leader in building efficiency and decarbonization policy through the development of the B.C. Energy Step Code and more recently with the Zero Carbon Step Code. B.C.’s building code has served as an example for other jurisdictions looking to improve building quality while lowering emissions. But we have found through a recent industry survey and targeted interviews that this leadership hasn’t fully extended to existing buildings.
As we envision a clean, affordable and equitable energy future, we need to look beyond traditional centralized solutions and large-scale energy infrastructure projects like big power plants situated far from where the energy is used.
