We are honored to receive the Emerald E-3 “Green Company” award in recognition of Apogee’s significant contributions to energy-efficient commercial buildings,” said Puishys. “With buildings accounting for more than 40 percent of energy consumption in the United States, it is important that new construction and renovation of buildings incorporate energy-efficient properties.Apogee provides industry-leading coated glass and thermal aluminum systems that allow buildings to achieve energy-efficiency goals and the aesthetics that architects desire. Through our distinctive solutions for enclosing commercial buildings and strong relationships with architects, contractors and building owners, we’ve realized outstanding revenue and earnings growth.”
