Andersen to Sell Luxury Window Brand Fenêtres MQ to Lepage
Brought to you with support from
Andersen Corporation is selling its Fenêtres MQ Inc. business to Lepage Millwork. The two companies announced the deal on October 30 and set a target closing date in December 2026.
Lepage is a family-owned Canadian maker of high-end, custom-crafted wood and aluminum-clad wood windows and doors. It has operated since 1947 from Rivière-du-Loup, Quebec. The company runs the whole manufacturing process in-house, from raw lumber to final assembly, and sells in Canada and the United States through authorized independent dealers.
Fenêtres MQ was founded in 1975. It makes custom luxury windows and doors in wood, aluminum-clad wood, steel and bronze, and serves customers across North America. Andersen bought it from its original founder in 2017.
What changes and what stays
The business will keep serving homeowners, builders, designers, developers and architects. Its sales and service presence across North America stays, and manufacturing remains in Spilimbergo, Italy.
Chris Galvin, Andersen's chairman and chief executive, called the move a thoughtful ownership transition. In his words, it honors the legacy of Fenêtres MQ and positions the business well for long-term success. He said Lepage shares the commitment to craftsmanship, bespoke engineering and customer service.
Brothers François-Xavier and Marc-Antoine Bonneville, co-owners of Lepage Millwork, thanked Andersen for its stewardship of the brand. "MQ shares that spirit, and its talented team brings European craftsmanship that complements our North American roots," they said.
Andersen is privately held and based in Bayport, Minnesota. It was founded in 1903, has more than 14,000 employees and describes itself as the largest window and door manufacturer in North America.
Through its subsidiaries, Andersen sells window and door products under three brands: Andersen, Renewal by Andersen and EMCO. It operates manufacturing sites across North America.
