CertainTeed is a subsidiary of Saint-Gobain (one of the world's oldest and largest building product companies) and employs 5700 in more than 60 US manufacturing facilities.
 
CertainTeed Vinyl Siding - Brand History

From its early beginnings, the company was renamed “CertainTeed” in 1917, inspired by their slogan “Quality made certain. Satisfaction guaranteed.” Starting with asphalt shingles, the product line expanded in the 1960s when the firm acquired a fiberglass insulation business and PVC pipe business. 
In October 2015, CertainTeed moved into a new state-of-the-art open floor plan headquarters. This ‘living laboratory’ enables their research team to measure the impact their products and innovations have in a real environment.  
 
CertainTeed Vinyl Siding - Philosophy

Being green is one of their top priorities. CertainTeed leads the industry in sustainable business practices while improving product performance and style. And their vinyl siding is no exception. By streamlining operations to reduce carbon emissions, and by reprocessing all vinyl scrap, the manufacturing process has near-zero waste. The company feels that ‘we do well by doing good’. Both management and employees give back often, partnering with charities like Homes for Our Troops and YouthBuildUSA. 
 
CertainTeed Vinyl Siding - Products

CertainTeed has a suite of products for residential homeowners making exterior improvements. Here’s a bit about their product lines: 
  • Roofing: Architectural laminate shingles, synthetic slate, and the industry’s first architectural-style strip highlight CertainTeed’s roofing products. 
  • Siding: Shop for authentic cedar appearance shake and shingle vinyl or composite siding (in both vertical and horizontal orientation) from CertainTeed. Don’t forget to accent your home’s exterior with soffit and vinyl trim detailing.
  • Solar: CertainTeed offer the latest in photovoltaic technology. Choose from the efficient and affordable Solstice solar solution, or the upgraded Apollo II system. The latter works as a roof and a solar system in one.
  • Trim: CertainTeed Exterior Trim highlights the architectural features of your home and makes for eye-catching curb appeal —without rotting, peeling or fading.
  • Decking: The EverNew vinyl decking product is low maintenance, lightweight, easy to install, and comes with a lifetime warranty.
