Gorell Receives ENERGY STAR® Award for Sixth Consecutive Year

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency have named Gorell Windows & Doors as winner of the ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year Award for the sixth straight year.

Gorell also received the "Sustained Excellence" Award-bestowed only on organizations that have won the ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year award three or more consecutive times-for the fourth consecutive year.

"The ENERGY STAR awards represent achievements the Department of Energy is proud to recognize, as they represent notable progress or sustained excellence in working to secure our energy future," says Richard H. Karney, DOE ENERGY STAR program manager. "In 2009, our partners receiving these awards demonstrated superb commitment to advancing the adoption of energy-efficient products and addressing our environmental challenges."

Gorell will be honored at an awards ceremony in Washington, D.C., on March 31, 2009.

"We are thrilled-and also honored-by this truly remarkable achievement. As many in the industry know, we take ENERGY STAR very seriously, and for Gorell, it has become the cornerstone of our commitment to energy efficiency and the Green movement in America," says Wayne Gorell, Gorell's president and chief executive officer.
