The Inc. 5000 list, a prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in the United States, has once again highlighted the dynamism and innovation within the commercial glass sector.
This year’s list, released by Inc. Business Media, features a significant number of glass-related businesses demonstrating impressive revenue growth despite challenging economic conditions. The results showcase the industry’s resilience and adaptability in a rapidly changing market.
Several companies stand out for their exceptional growth. Northern Architectural Systems, a New Jersey-based designer and manufacturer of architectural windows, wall systems, and doors, achieved a remarkable 159% three-year growth rate. President and CEO Stephen Simms attributes this success to the company’s dedication to client collaboration and the creation of high-quality architectural products.
Florida-based companies also made a strong showing. MY Shower Door, a familiar name on the Inc. 5000 list (this is its eighth appearance!), recorded a 110% three-year growth rate. Bill Daubmann, who leads both MY Shower Door and fellow Inc. 5000 honoree D3 Glass, highlights the difficulty of sustained growth for family-owned businesses in such a competitive environment. D3 Glass, a manufacturer and fabricator of flat glass products, achieved an impressive 156% growth rate. The Daubmann brothers’ success underscores the potential for significant expansion within the specialty glass market.
The Inc. 5000 rankings provide a compelling snapshot of entrepreneurial success amidst economic headwinds. The median three-year revenue growth rate for the top 500 companies was a staggering 1,637%, demonstrating the remarkable achievements of this year’s entrants. The list also underscores the significant job creation within these companies, with a combined total of 874,940 new jobs added over the past three years.
Beyond Northern Architectural Systems, MY Shower Door, and D3 Glass, other notable glass companies on the list include:
*Viva Railings: Achieving a phenomenal 803% growth, Viva Railings provides architectural railings with glass infill options.
*Skyview Detroit: With a 273% growth rate, Skyview Detroit supplies commercial and residential outdoor products, including innovative glass systems.
