The history of the company began in 1885 when a group of Swiss investors formed a partnership to build and operate an aluminum rolling mill in the United States. The factory was located at the corner of Ward Road and Roosevelt Avenue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
In 1898, the partnership was dissolved, and J.W. Jeld-Wen Company was created as a holding company for its various operations. During World War I, J.W. Jeld-Wen Company became one of the first firms to manufacture aircraft engines for the U.S., producing 1,200 engines per month during 1917 alone
In 1919, J.W. Jeld-Wen Company merged with another steel rolling firm to form Stelco Incorporated which later became known as Stelco Holdings Limited Partnership (SHLP). SHLP acquired U.S.-based Republic Steel Corporation in 1978 and renamed it Iron Ore Reserves Corporation (IORC).
