Loewen Knows.
When you live and work in a part of the world where arctic winds come howling down from the polar icecaps all winter, you learn how to build exceedingly sturdy, energy efficient windows. By using Douglas Fir as our standard wood species, we ensure that a certain imperviousness to the elements is built into our windows from the start. In addition, Loewen uses thicker glass than other window manufacturers, making ours better insulated, more soundproof and more impact resistant.
