JELD-WEN UK, a subsidiary of JELD-WEN Holding, Inc., has earned its second Cradle to Cradle Certified® product certification in 2025, expanding its range of sustainable doors across five European countries. This achievement underscores the company's commitment to responsible innovation and sustainability [1].

The newly certified Bronze-level products include ADVANCELINE exterior doors from Latvia and interior frames from Estonia. These additions span five countries and reflect the company's progress in aligning sustainability with manufacturing excellence. According to Guillaume Woringer, Vice President Operations for JELD-WEN Europe, "This certification is more than recognition; it is proof that sustainability drives every step of our product development and production" [1].

Cradle to Cradle Certified® is one of the world's most advanced product sustainability standards, evaluating products for material health, circularity, climate protection, water stewardship, and social fairness. By meeting these rigorous standards, JELD-WEN is embedding sustainability across the entire product lifecycle, from material selection to manufacturing and delivery [1].

This certification positions JELD-WEN favorably for upcoming regulatory developments, such as the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), which will require companies to prove that wood-based products are not linked to deforestation or forest degradation. By meeting these standards, JELD-WEN is not only supporting future compliance but also strengthening transparency and long-term value creation for customers, partners, and communities [1].

Carolyn Payne, Director of Global ESG for JELD-WEN, said, "Expanding our Cradle to Cradle certification is a significant milestone in JELD-WEN's sustainability journey. This certification reflects our deep commitment to designing products that are safe, circular, and responsibly made" [1].

As a global organization, JELD-WEN is committed to providing sustainable and innovative solutions that benefit customers, communities, and the planet. This certification reflects the company's dedication to continued progress on its global ESG goals [1].
