Brantford, ON – Creating enticing curb appeal can be daunting for today’s building and remodeling professionals.

Ply Gem, a leading North American exterior building products manufacturer and Canadian supplier, simplifies that process through The Designed Exterior by plygem.


The Designed Exterior comprises products from 24 exterior product categories, including windows and doors, vinyl and aluminum siding and accessories, and cellular PVC trim and mouldings, among others.
