UEENS, NY — Crys- tal’s award winning products continue to
be recognized by the national design and construction in- dustry. The company’s newly enhanced Series 1450D Ter- race Door, with an optional ADA compliant low sill, was named to the Building Design + Construction (BD+C) Magazine 2023 Top 75 Building Products List in the November/December 2023 issue. Making Crystal’s recognition all the more pres- tigious was that the published list covered not just fenestra- tion-related, but all building products used in new and rehab construction projects. The 2023 BD+C Top Products List has eight categories. The Crystal Series 1450D Terrace Door is one of seven window and door products, and one of only four exterior window and door products, to make the list. Products were assessed on their overall potential benefit to construction project teams; usefulness to clients in terms of performance and maintenance; impact on building occupants’ health, safety, wellness, and productivity; and degree of in- novation in the product catego-
ry. The enhanced Crystal Series 1450D Terrace Door scored high on all these key characteristics. In selecting the top prod- ucts, the publication invited manufacturers to submit new products for consideration and the magazine’s editorial team evaluated the products based on innovation and over- all usefulness to the industry. Then the national industry publication engaged a jury of Architect-EngineeringCon- struction (AEC) professionals with experience in the product specification and purchase process for the final selection. “I’m proud that Crystal’s industry leading window and door products continue to be valued and recognized by the building industry,” said S abrina Leung , Crystal’s Crystal Series 1450D low sill
