Exclusive Distributors of LOEWEN WOOD WINDOWS & DOORS FOR THE LUXURY HOME Unlike other window makers, Loewen uses clear, vertical-grain Coastal Douglas Fir as the standard species in their frames and sashes. This tightly grained wood does more than just give Loewen windows a rich, warm texture.It’s also naturally tough and resilient, yet remarkably workable, meaning it is ideal for precision milling and capable of holding the smallest, most intricate detailing. To enhance their wood’s high natural resistance to moisture absorption, decay and insect infestation, every Loewen wood component is treated with a water repellant, wood preservative sealant before assembly. Windows and doors are active components. They are opened and closed — even slammed! Tight, stable joinery and the ability of fasteners and hardware to remain solidly attached are key.	• Douglas Fir is North America’s most plentiful softwood species, accounting for 1/5th of the continent’s total softwood reserves. • Roughly 88% of the Douglas Fir purchased by Loewen comes from forestland that is Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) certified. In addition to SFI certification, many of our Douglas Fir suppliers in Canada are ISO 14001 and/or CSA certified. • Douglas Fir — different, durable. The ideal species for fenestration, and a hallmark of the Loewen brand.
