CHARLOTTE — Jeld-Wen Holding, Inc. is a leading global manufacturer of building products and also one of the world’s most trustworthy companies.

The Charlotte-based company has been named to Newsweek's inaugural list of the World's Most Trustworthy Companies 2023. Jeld-Wen is the only window and door manufacturer on the global list.

"We are immensely proud that Jeld-Wen has secured its place among the World's Most Trustworthy Companies," said CEO William J. Christensen. "Building a culture of trust is paramount to strengthening Jeld-Wen's business performance. We strive to earn and maintain the trust of our customers and stakeholders every day through our actions and our commitment to transparency, accountability and integrity."

The list was developed by an independent survey based on a vast sample of more than 70,000 participants in 23 industries from 21 countries. A total of 269,000 evaluations were analyzed by Statista, Inc. – a world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. 

The participants rated companies they knew and were headquartered in the respective country in terms of all three touchpoints of trust. The three main public pillars of trust were: Customer Trust, Investor Trust, and Employee Trust. All stock-listed companies headquartered in one of the target countries with a revenue of over $500 million were considered in the study.

Prior to being named to the World's Most Trustworthy Companies 2023, Jeld-Wen was recognized by Newsweek as one of the "Most Trustworthy Companies in America" in 2022 and 2023.

Jeld-Wen was ranked #4 on the FDMC 300, a listing of the largest North American wood products producers, with estimated sales of more than $3.3 billion in 2022.
