Building Value
ODL says it "spent years
developing ZEEL, a
next-generation doorglass
frame designed for today's
homeowners."

ODL transforms its supply chain by investing in its people
and ensuring the right tools are in place. By Janice Hoppe-Spiers

Innovation is a mindset at ODL
Inc.; one that is deeply rooted in
the company's nearly 75-year history of "Building Value into Building Products." ODL has become
the leader in decorative and clear
door glass and entry treatments by
having the courage to disrupt current thinking and bring products
to market that create enthusiasm
among its customers.
In 1945, Cy Mulder founded
ODL, which began as Ottawa Door
Lights, from his home in Ottawa.
The business eventually moved
into a small building in Zeeland,

Mich., where ODL is headquartered today. In the early 1960s,
Mulder's son, Larry, took over
leadership and changed the face
of the company by expanding its
reach outside Zeeland to other
parts of the United States.
Today, Larry's son, Jeff, is at the
helm and has expanded the company's sites in the United States,
Canada, UK, China and Mexico, with
distribution all over the world. For
three generations, ODL has kept its
sights on what is ahead and has taken
opportunities to build the business
and grow its product offering.

ODL offers products designed
to build value in the home under
the ODL, Blink Blinds + Glass,
Western Reflections and Kenyon's
Glass brands. Product offerings
include decorative and clear door
glass, enclosed blinds, retractable
screens, custom decorative glass
for windows, doors and transoms,
and door glass frames.
"We have been around for a long
time and there is a lot of trust in our
quality products," Vice President of
Supply Chain Adam Skinner says.
"Our entire culture is about people
and making their lives better."
