Artisan™ Series Chosen as Top 50 Most Innovative New Product

Professional Remodeler magazine selects AMSCO Windows' Artisan Series for honor

Salt Lake City (PRWEB) October 5, 2008 -- October 3, 2008 - Professional Remodeler magazine has recently named AMSCO Windows' new Artisan™ Series as one of its 50 Most Innovative New Products for 2008. The magazine featured the unique and innovative new window line in its September issue. The program recognizes technological advances in the residential building market.

The new Artisan Series creates a beautiful appearance by combining unique design with energy efficiency. Featuring a distinctive beveled-in profile, innovative hidden accessory grooves, breakthrough color technology and one of the industry's first magnetic action locks, the Artisan Series is specifically designed to make your home a masterpiece.

The magazine award serves to recognize new products that feature technological advancements that put a product ahead of its competitors; a new product line introduction or significant product improvement such as a categorical shift in the product's structure or features; and other innovations that increase the competition of a product line in the marketplace.

"We are honored by Professional Remodeler's recognition of Artisan Series and its unique design and innovative color technology for its Top 50 Innovative New Products issue," said Kyle Hendren, product marketing manager for AMSCO Windows. "We've spent more than a year developing and testing the product and are convinced the new technology provides Artisan Series with the best, durable two-tone color option on the market today."

The breakthrough technology of the Artisan Series allows for additional color options far superior to paint. The integral color layer is highly scratch-resistant resulting in fewer callbacks. The color cap is highly durable, fade resistant and won't crack, chip, flake or chalk like paint.

"We designed the new Artisan Series window specifically for the remodel and retrofit markets as well as for upper-end new construction," said Steve Sullivan, director of marketing for AMSCO. "Through our research we found that homeowners are looking for aesthetics that go beyond flat white rectangles. The unique beveled-in design and new exterior color options add architectural interest to the windows, which home owners desire."

The Artisan Series is available in mono colors white, almond and taupe plus the new exterior colors autumn red, evergreen and bronze with a white interior. The new Artisan Series with standard CMzE™ performance glass is available in many styles, colors and options for both new construction and remodeling projects and comes with a lifetime warranty.
