Pella Displays Latest Innovations at Builders’ Show

Founded in 1925 and headquartered in Pella, IA, the company is a member of the National Council of the Housing Industry — the Supplier 100 of NAHB.

Pella’s innovative products include the Rolscreen® retractable insect screen; window fashions under panes of glass; three-point locking mechanisms for increased security and energy efficiency; prefinished interiors; and many others.

Products and techniques will be demonstrated at the Pella booth — #C4689 — throughout the show every hour on the half hour. Company representatives will show how using Pella SmartFlash™ window and door installation tape and GREAT STUFF™ Pro Window & Door Insulating Foam Sealant, manufactured by Dow®, can significantly reduce callbacks. Builders can watch the demonstrations every hour on the half hour.

Pella will be highlighting enhancements to cladding color and hardware options, new shade and blind colors for Designer Series® windows and doors; entry systems glass and finish options; and new screens for windows and storm doors. Available for the first time on ProLine® double-hung windows, Simulated Divided Light grille options also will be shown.

Taking a cue from emerging color and finish trends in home furnishings, Pella will debut new color options for Designer Series window fashions under glass and Designer Series and Architect Series® exterior cladding colors. Also, Pella will unveil two new hardware finish options that will complement many of the hardware finishes being introduced in home furnishings and accessories.

Convention-goers will be able to see Pella products in action in the “Ultimate Family Home.” Built by Pardee Homes to display the latest in energy efficiency trends, the home actually will generate more energy than it uses. The home was designed by Bassenian/Lagoni Architects of Newport Beach, CA.
