"Four Seasons shares a number of important business fundamentals with REHAU," REHAU's Dr. Saylor said. From a longstanding reputation as a premier manufacturer, to a keen industry foresight around the importance of energy efficiency, to a sincere dedication toward delivery of innovative, high-quality products within a dynamic marketplace."

"Like REHAU, Four Seasons and Cardinal are true innovators, with examples like the CONSERVAGLASS PLUS glass system, engineered to make a notable and competitive difference in sunroom temperature management," said Brian Guyer, market development manager, windows and doors, at REHAU. "The CONSERVAGLASS PLUS glass package will also now be integrated with REHAU's high-performance vinyl profiles, resulting in a superior window that also qualifies for the $1,500 federal tax credit through the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act."

"In our ongoing effort to 'Build the Best' and provide a reliable family of products through our franchise and dealer network and company-owned and operated locations, partnering with reputable, quality-minded companies like REHAU just makes sense," said Marron at Four Seasons. "We are very excited about the widened market channels these new window lines will allow us to explore."

By combining these premier window designs with Four Seasons' exclusive, climate-specific CONSERVAGLASS PLUS glazing recipes, Four Seasons has created a unique energy-saving window for a wide scope of markets and climates.

"Four Seasons worked very closely with REHAU to design a unique window in the market that would include all the latest and greatest safety, security and energy-efficiency features as part of our standard offering," Marron said. "As our 'Build the Best' tagline promises, Four Seasons' customers expect only the best from Four Seasons and we are delivering that with this window, as we do with our sunrooms and conservatories. From the thickest, strongest and most durable vinyl extrusions and steel reinforcement in the frame and sash, to our industry-leading CONSERVAGLASS PLUS glazing packages, there simply isn't a better window on the market, at any price."
