Wasco Skylight System

Brand Origin and Manufacturing

Wasco Products Inc., founded in 1935, is a prominent manufacturer of skylight systems based in the United States. The company has manufacturing facilities in Wells, Maine, and Reno, Nevada, producing a diverse range of skylight products for both commercial and residential applications.

Acquisition by VELUX

In April 2018, VELUX America LLC, the U.S. sales company of the VELUX Group, acquired Wasco Products Inc. This acquisition aimed to strengthen VELUX's presence in the commercial daylighting market by integrating Wasco's extensive product offerings and manufacturing capabilities. The combined entity enhances VELUX's ability to provide comprehensive daylighting solutions to a broader customer base.

Current Ownership

As of 2025, Wasco operates as part of VELUX America LLC, which is a subsidiary of the VELUX Group headquartered in Denmark. The VELUX Group is a global leader in skylights and roof windows, with a strong emphasis on creating better living environments through natural light and fresh air. VELUX's acquisition of Wasco has allowed for the expansion of their product portfolio and manufacturing capabilities in the United States, particularly in the commercial skylight sector.
