CUYAHOGA FALLS, Ohio – November 11, 2025 – Associated Materials Innovations (AMI) announced the completion of a major overhaul to its Yuma, Arizona, window manufacturing facility that includes a 100,000-square-foot expansion and four high-speed automated insulating glass lines with Super Spacer® application. With a $30 million investment in its Yuma, Arizona, window manufacturing facility, AMI underscores its focus on innovation, quality and driving customer value.
These additions are part of AMI’s continuous improvement initiatives designed to simplify its glass packages, boost performance, increase production capacity and drive competitive value for its customers.
“The Yuma investments demonstrate our long-term commitment to growth and modernization,” said Frank Natoli, CEO of Associated Materials Innovations. “The separation of Associated Materials’ manufacturing and distribution businesses earlier this year gives us the focus to push AMI’s manufacturing forward and accelerate innovation for our customers.”
The new Super Spacer® “Plus” glass package produced in Yuma will roll out across the region throughout the fall, strengthening AMI windows sold in the Western region under the Gentek® U.S., PRESERVATION®, Alpine® and private-label brands.
These updates mean that greater value comes standard with AMI, including:
- High-performance glass packages – Super Spacer® technology provides enhanced thermal efficiency, condensation resistance and long-term durability.
- Simplified ordering – Fewer SKUs and consistent spacer technology make it simpler to select and order products from AMI.
- Unchanged warranty coverage – Customers gain high-performance systems with no change in warranty coverage.
- Increased capacity – The new automated lines increase throughput by up to 5,000 units per day.
“The new lines in Yuma allow us to scale with confidence, producing high-performing glass packages with the consistency our customers expect,” Natoli said. “We’re energized by the possibilities these updates create for the West and beyond.”
Similar upgrades and enhancements are already underway for AMI’s operations in the Eastern U.S., with launches planned later this year. For more information on what these upgrades mean for your business, contact your AMI sales rep or visithttps://www.associatedmaterialsinnovations.com/super-spacer/.
