We acknowledge that we live, work, meet and travel land on the traditional territories of many First Nations and Indigenous Peoples that have cared for this land for millennia, now called Canada. Our head office is based in Chilliwack, BC - home to the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Stó:lō Coast Salish peoples.
We recognize that land acknowledgements are a first step towards the larger process of reconciliation between non-Indigenous and Indigenous peoples in Canada. This practice is inspired by the 94 calls to action contained in the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada report, and helps Canadians recognize and respect Indigenous peoples’ inherent kinship beliefs when it comes to the land. It serves as a starting place to change how the land is seen and talked about.
Over the last two years, Natural Resources Canada has undertaken extensive public and industry engagement to develop the Canada Green Buildings Strategy (CGBS) with the aim to “mobilize national action to transform markets and reduce costs” to meet building sector carbon reduction targets.
As our world moves toward sustainable buildings among other things, the design world offers cushions manufactured local from recycled materials and naturally crafted fabrics like organic cotton and hemp. Some truly stunning creations that are sustainable include a rainwater collection chain into a half barrel for plant use and solar lighting that comes on when the sun is going down.
Incorporating fire-resistant design features and materials in buildings while meeting net-zero targets to combat carbon emissons by using high performance window and door products.
Energy Losses from Windows Around The Globe Contribute 1 Gigaton of CO2 Emissions Annually—Here’s How Startups and Venture Capital’s (VC’s) Are Changing This.
To qualify for the Canadian Retrofit Grant, a total window and frame replacement with new, high-performance ENERGY STAR® certified windows can make your home more comfortable, save energy, and help fight climate change.
When it comes to designing modern homes and buildings, every detail matters. That’s why architects and designers turn to the Visionaire™ Architectural Aluminum Series by Westeck Windows and Doors. These windows and doors are more than just functional—they’re a statement of style, performance, and precision.
At Westeck Windows, we don’t just manufacture premium windows—we collaborate on architectural expression. Throughout the Pacific Northwest and Western Canada, architects, interior designers, and custom home builders' partner with us to push the boundaries of modern fenestration.
At Westeck, we understand that windows are more than just a building feature—they shape the character, efficiency, and comfort of any space.

Windows, doors and skylights may appear passive, but they’re always performing. High-performance products regulate the flow of heat and light that comes in and out of your home, keeping your electricity costs low.
The competition once again had a record-breaking year; small and large businesses from across Canada submitted over 1000 entries. Nearly 300 volunteer industry experts evaluated entries based on project descriptions, images, and other supporting information such as floor plans included in the submission packages.
British Columbia has long been considered a leader in building efficiency and decarbonization policy through the development of the B.C. Energy Step Code and more recently with the Zero Carbon Step Code. B.C.’s building code has served as an example for other jurisdictions looking to improve building quality while lowering emissions. But we have found through a recent industry survey and targeted interviews that this leadership hasn’t fully extended to existing buildings.
As we envision a clean, affordable and equitable energy future, we need to look beyond traditional centralized solutions and large-scale energy infrastructure projects like big power plants situated far from where the energy is used.
