Everest

Everest Home Improvement was a British double glazing and home improvement company. The company was founded in 1964 but went into administration in June 2020. A new company called Everest 2020 limited was formed in June 2020 following the administration, saving 1,000 jobs in the process. History Everest was founded by Lewis Golden in 1964. It became one of the first companies in the market of double glazing. In what became a very fragmented market, with over 3,000 companies, the company grew to become the second biggest in the UK market by sales and turnover with 2.5% of the market (£165m sales) by 2009, later rising to 3%. Private Equity firm Better Capital acquired the company in March 2012 for £25 million. In November 2013, the company won the Interactive Media Awards in content, design, functionality, high standards of compliance and usability. In 2014, Everest windows introduced triple glazing to the volume market.
