Overview

PGT Innovations is an American manufacturer of windows and doors, headquartered in North Venice, Florida.

Its product lines include aluminum and vinyl windows, sliding glass doors, entry doors, and related architectural products sold under brands such as PGT Windows, CGI Windows, WinDoor, Western Window Systems, and Anlin.

Today, PGT Innovations' legacy brands continue to serve customers through their respective websites and distribution channels. The corporate website notes that PGT Innovations is now part of MITER Brands and directs visitors to the individual brand sites for product information. The company remains active in the U.S. window and door market, with a focus on impact-resistant and energy-efficient products suited to diverse climates and building codes.

History

PGT Innovations traces its origins to the founding of PGT (formerly known as PGT Industries) in 1980 in North Venice, Florida. The company initially focused on manufacturing windows and doors for the Florida market, where building codes demand products capable of withstanding hurricane-force winds and impact from debris. This focus on impact-resistant technology became a defining characteristic of the company. Over the following decades, PGT expanded its product offerings and geographic reach. It grew through acquisitions of complementary window and door manufacturers, including CGI Windows & Doors, WinDoor, and Western Window Systems. These acquisitions allowed PGT to serve a broader range of customers and architectural styles, from entry-level to luxury custom homes. In 2006, the company became publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker PGTI. As a public company, PGT Innovations continued to invest in manufacturing capacity and product innovation, particularly in impact-resistant and energy-efficient glazing technologies. In 2024, PGT Innovations was acquired by MITER Brands, a privately held building products company. The acquisition combined PGT Innovations' portfolio of brands with MITER Brands' existing window and door businesses. Following the acquisition, PGT Innovations operates as a subsidiary of MITER Brands, and its individual brands continue to serve customers under the MITER Brands umbrella. The corporate website now states that PGT Innovations is part of MITER Brands and directs visitors to the individual brand websites for product information.
