Pioneering Precision: Verdun’s New Facility Integrates Automated CNC and RevoCell™ Production Lines

(Isstories Editorial):- Prescott, Ontario Oct 10, 2025 (Issuewire.com) – Verdun Windows and Doors has broken ground on a state-of-the-art 104,000 square foot manufacturing facility in the Vars Industrial Park, a landmark project that combines advanced precision automation with award-winning RevoCell window technology. This new site will reshape how energy-efficient windows and doors are produced in Canada, while generating major economic and environmental benefits for the Ottawa region.

Engineering the Future of Windows and Doors

At the heart of the new facility lies Verdun’s decision to integrate automated CNC (computer numerical control) machinery with proprietary RevoCell production lines. This pairing ensures that every product leaving the Vars campus reflects the highest possible standards for precision, performance, and durability.

“CNC automation allows us to achieve accuracy down to fractions of a millimeter,” said Verdun’s Manufacturing Director. “When combined with RevoCell, our most advanced window technology, we are delivering products that outperform industry benchmarks while scaling up production responsibly.”

The facility is expected to increase overall manufacturing capacity by 50 percent, significantly reducing lead times and ensuring Canadian homeowners have quicker access to high-performance, locally produced products.

A Technology-Driven Milestone

RevoCell has already distinguished Verdun Windows and Doors as an innovation leader. Made from microcellular PVC (mPVC) filled with billions of microscopic air pockets, RevoCell frames deliver superior insulation and structural strength. What makes this line unique is its ability to achieve ENERGY STAR® “Most Efficient” certification with dual-pane glass, while competitors often require bulkier and more expensive triple-pane systems. By automating the fabrication of RevoCell profiles, Verdun will ensure tighter quality control, faster turnaround, and even greater consistency across product lines. “This is not just an expansion,” said Verdun’s R&D Director. “It’s an evolution of how energy-efficient windows are designed, built, and delivered.”

Federal and Provincial Backing

The $30 million project has received critical support from both federal and provincial governments. The Government of Canada, through FedDev Ontario, has invested $1 million, while provincial partners have extended additional grants and programs to reinforce the project’s workforce and sustainability goals.

MP Giovanna Mingarelli praised Verdun’s initiative during the groundbreaking event: “This facility exemplifies the kind of Canadian manufacturing leadership we want to see. It creates good jobs, strengthens supply chains, and puts environmental responsibility front and center.”

MPP Stéphane Sarrazin echoed that sentiment, noting, “Ontario’s economy thrives when companies like Verdun innovate. This investment secures the region’s reputation as a hub for sustainable manufacturing.”

Mayor Tarnowski Welcomes a Landmark

Russell Township Mayor Mike Tarnowski called the project “a cornerstone of local development,” emphasizing how Verdun’s choice to expand in Vars aligns with the township’s growth strategy. “With this facility, Verdun is not only creating up to 200 jobs but also setting an example for responsible, community-minded growth,” he said.

Local businesses are already feeling the ripple effects. Construction firms, transportation services, and suppliers report increased activity, reinforcing the project’s role as a regional economic catalyst.

Building Careers, Not Just Jobs

The Vars facility will generate 150 to 200 positions, ranging from CNC operators and quality control technicians to logistics staff and administrative support. Verdun is working with nearby colleges to launch apprenticeship and internship programs, ensuring young graduates can secure stable careers in advanced manufacturing.

A community job fair scheduled for late summer 2025 will allow potential applicants to tour the new facility, meet Verdun leadership, and participate in early training sessions. “We see our workforce as long-term partners,” said Verdun’s HR Director. “That means investing in training, development, and opportunities for advancement.”

Sustainability Embedded in Design

Verdun’s new facility also reflects a deep commitment to sustainability. The campus will feature:

  • Rooftop solar arrays to offset energy consumption

  • LED smart lighting systems for efficiency

  • EV charging stations to encourage clean commuting

  • Rainwater reuse systems for landscaping and facility operations

  • A zero-waste-to-landfill initiative to minimize environmental impact

These measures build on Verdun’s track record of environmental leadership, including its back-to-back ENERGY STAR® Canada Special Recognition Awards in 2023 and 2024. “This facility shows that manufacturing can be both precise and sustainable,” said Verdun’s Sustainability Officer. “It is a blueprint for what responsible industry should look like in Canada.”

Strengthening Local Supply Chains

Verdun is committed to sourcing materials and services locally whenever possible. The new Vars campus will deepen partnerships with Eastern Ontario suppliers, from glass fabricators and packaging firms to metal stampers and industrial service providers. “Resilient supply chains start close to home,” said Verdun’s Procurement Manager. “By working with local partners, we not only reduce emissions but also strengthen the economic fabric of our communities.”

A Community and Customer-First Approach

For more than 40 years, Verdun Windows and Doors has grown by combining innovation with a customer-focused service model. Unlike many competitors, Verdun maintains vertical integration, managing every step from manufacturing to installation.

“Our customers want peace of mind,” said the company’s Customer Experience Manager. “By keeping all operations in-house, we ensure quality, reliability, and seamless communication from start to finish.”

This approach has earned Verdun widespread recognition, including the HomeStars Best of the Best Award in 2025, a reflection of consistent customer satisfaction and service excellence.

A Timeline for Growth

The Vars facility is advancing on a clear roadmap:

  • Summer 2025: Community job fair and recruitment drive

  • Fall 2025: Construction completion and equipment installation

  • Winter 2025: First RevoCell production runs begin

  • Spring 2026: Official grand opening ceremony with community leaders and staff

“Every milestone moves us closer to reshaping how Canadians think about energy-efficient home solutions,” said Verdun’s CEO.

Looking Ahead

The Vars campus is more than a manufacturing facility. Verdun plans to incorporate R&D labs to test next-generation technologies, from smart-home integrated windows to advanced glazing solutions. Future expansions may include new product categories such as fiberglass and stel doors, alongside further sustainability measures like electrifying Verdun’s delivery fleet.

“Verdun Windows and Doors is not standing still,” said the CEO. “This project is about precision, innovation, and building a future where Canadian homeowners can count on the best products, designed and built right here at home.”
