Revyn, a steel fenestration company, names Vincent Curran CEO as demand for wildfire-resistant building materials accelerates across California and Colorado.
Revyn, a Vermont-based steel window and door company specializing in fire-rated fenestration, has named Vincent "Vinny" Curran as chief executive officer. The appointment arrives as demand for building materials that can survive wildfire exposure accelerates across California, Colorado and other parts of the American West.
Curran brings experience in steel fenestration, direct-to-consumer window sales and wildfire-resilient construction. He will lead the company's push to make fire-rated windows more accessible to architects, builders and homeowners, Revyn said in a statement.
"Fire country has changed what we have to ask of a window," Curran said. "For years, architects and homeowners have hardened roofs, vents, siding, and decks but the window has remained one of the least understood parts of the building envelope. Revyn was created to solve that problem from the inside of the frame out."
The company's products target a specific vulnerability in residential construction. Standard windows often fail when embers enter through gaps or when heat shatters glass, allowing fire to spread inside. Revyn's steel fenestration systems are independently tested for fire resistance and carry a lifetime structural warranty, according to the company.
Pete Hopkins, Revyn's co-founder and strategic investor, said Curran understands both the urgency of the wildfire problem and the practical challenges of bringing a better window system to market. "His leadership is grounded in extensive product knowledge, market insights and a strong belief that advanced fire protection should be widely accessible to all and not reserved for the elite few who can afford such solutions," Hopkins said in the release.
Curran's appointment signals that the market for fire-resistant building materials is moving beyond niche products. Homeowners rebuilding after wildfires, insurers tightening coverage requirements and architects designing for higher fire exposure are all driving demand for specialized fenestration. Revyn plans to demonstrate its newest fire-rated steel series at the Bond Event Oct. 22–24, 2026 in Palm Springs, California.
"Windows aren't just about light, views and beauty," Curran added. "In fire country, they have to become advanced protection systems and as the last unprotected opening in the building envelope, it's our job to help the industry understand their importance and build accordingly."
Revyn's fire-rated steel product line has outperformed every independently rated fire-rated test the company has put it through, Curran said.
The company was founded on the belief that windows should be beautiful, lasting, thermally efficient and engineered to protect against wildfire exposure. Its mission is to make fireproof windows and doors readily accessible to all, according to the release.
Curran's appointment comes as California and Colorado continue to update building codes for wildfire zones, and as insurance premiums in high-risk areas climb. The Bond Event demonstration in October will give architects and builders a chance to see the latest fire-rated series up close.
