Andersen Corporation Names Shawn Brown President of Bright Wood Company

Andersen Corporation (“Andersen”) today announced the appointment of Shawn Brown as president of Bright Wood Company LLC (“Bright Wood”). Andersen announced its plans to acquire Bright Wood in December 2025, initiating a leadership transition from the family-owned and operated company to an independently operated business owned by Andersen and managed by an independent local leadership team. Brown will succeed interim CEO Pat Meyer, who has led the company through this transition and will move into an executive advisory role. 

“Pat provided steady leadership and continuity for Bright Wood during an important period for the business. We are grateful for his service and support as we prepared for the next phase of leadership.”

Chris Galvin, Andersen Corporation chairman and chief executive officer

Brown brings more than three decades of experience in the building products industry, with deep expertise across the window and door sector. Most recently, he served as president of CTI Door Components at Composite Technology International, where he led the company’s global door component business and helped expand its partnerships with leading door and window manufacturers.

Earlier in his career, Brown spent nearly two decades with Masonite, a global manufacturer of residential and architectural door systems, where he held senior leadership roles across sales, operations, and market development.

“Shawn is a highly respected leader in the window and door industry. His experience working across the supply chain coupled with his deep relationships throughout the sector position him well to lead Bright Wood by building on the company’s strong foundation to unlock additional innovation and growth in support of customers across the window and door industry.”
