As someone with an interest in using

to make you comfortable with us and our
growing product line, which features Meganite® 100% Acrylic Solid Surfaces
and Array Solid Surface.
The facts we have assembled

our customers (your peers). Remarks from
our vendors.
However, we're convinced
that the true measure of our company is

people who will serve you.
Maxstone International,

Wayne's
Vision
|
Maxstone has been distributing
solid surface materials - and more - since
1996!
In 1996, Maxstone International, LLC opened
as a fabrication business that used Corian®
and other high quality materials to produce
countertops and vanity tops in the Memphis
area. Subsequently, we became a distributor
for Meganite®, a 100% acrylic solid surface
material that compares very favorably to Corian®
but costs less. In just seven years on the
U.S. market, Meganite® has already had a major
impact on the solid surfaces industry because
of the high quality and low price of the product,
and because the Meganite factory can successfully
match any color of solid surface from any
other manufacturer.
Maxstone has warehouses in Memphis,
TN, Atlanta, GA, Orlando, FL, and Dallas,
TX. These locations allow us to get Meganite®
to our customers in 16 Southeastern states
very quickly. Distribution throughout the
remainder of the U.S. is accomplished by
Maxstone affiliates in Kansas City, MO and
Denver, CO and other professional Meganite
distributors.
Our 12 years of fabrication experience
enable us to remain up-to-date on the latest
techniques in solid surface fabrication
via our research and development facility
in Memphis. Fabrication training, certification,
and merchandising and marketing courses
are offered here as well. We are uniquely
qualified to serve homebuilders, fabricators,
manufacturers, architects, and other professionals
who use or specify solid surface materials.
Wayne’s Vision
Wayne Juang, President/CEO of Maxstone International,
graduated from National Taiwan University
with a degree in Chemical Engineering. He
came to the U.S. in 1979 to do research
work at the Polymer Institute at the University
of Detroit where his research focused on
polymers - high molecular weight materials.
After earning his Masters degree in Chemical
Engineering, Wayne chose to become an entrepreneur
instead of continuing his graduate study.
Wayne moved to Denton, Texas in 1981
to work with polyurethane, polyester, and
injection molding. During his 4-year stay
in Denton, he earned his MBA in finance
from the University of North Texas. In 1984,
he moved to Memphis, Tennessee to do research
work on polyurethane, SBR latex, and polyester
for Dr. Scholl’s - a division of Schering-Plough
Corporation - where he designed the popular
Work Day insole.
When he purchased a home in Memphis,
he was impressed with the cultured marble
whirlpool in his master bath and determined
that it was made from polyester. Wayne recognized
the shortcomings in both material and quality
of workmanship in the cultured marble he
encountered in the model homes he toured.
He knew there was a better way to manufacture
and install these popular products, and
he began to develop it. In 1988, Wayne quit
his job and formed Mini-Max Marble &
Composites, Inc.
Utilizing a scale and balance (similar
to the ones available to him during his
years in research and development), Wayne
established strict protocols for mixing
the resin, filler, pigments, and catalysts
to create very high quality cultured marble
products. The reputation of Mini-Max grew
by word-of-mouth, and the business prospered.
When Wayne started Maxstone International
in 1996, customers ranged from those who
built starter homes to those who specialized
in large, custom mansions. Today, Maxstone
offers a wide range of traditional solid
surface kitchen and bath products to cover
every market segment, from manufactured
homes, modular homes, motor homes, and yachts
to healthcare, food service, commercial,
residential, and manufacturing.
These products are also being grouped
with some new, innovative products to create
packages that are custom-tailored to the
needs of traditional customers as well as
to certain specialty product manufacturers
who have specialized requirements. In all
instances, these products are offered at
very competitive prices.
In addition to Meganite 100% acrylic
solid surface sheet goods, Maxstone markets
Array solid surface sheet goods in thicknesses
of 1/4", 1/2", and 3/4" that are ideal for
countertops, vanity tops, desk tops, workstations,
case goods, tub decks, shower walls, tub
surrounds, window sills, fireplaces, and
other applications that require hygienic,
stone-like surfaces. For certain multi-resident
applications, 1-1/2" pre-fabricated solid
surface countertops are also provided. Other
products include Array kitchen and vanity
cabinets, stainless steel sinks and vanity
bowls, solid surface sinks and vanity bowls,
vitreous china bowls, and shower pans.
Over the years, Wayne has continually
developed innovative product and service
solutions. He is also focused on the future,
where he envisions Maxstone as being able
to provide all of the components required
for the healthcare, food service, and manufacturing
in the total-home and total-office environments.
Wayne’s Vision has made a significant
impact on the success our customers have
enjoyed over the years. We go far beyond
just distributing quality products. The
total Maxstone commitment to superior products,
marketing support, information distribution,
and customer service remains at the forefront
of all we do, every day. Wayne will be sharing
his industry knowledge and practical insights
with customers that use products distributed
by Maxstone International on this web site
and via video conferencing and DVD productions.
The Best of Both Worlds is the Maxstone
philosophy condensed into a very few words.
Simply stated, we provide our customers
the best high-end products they require
AND the best economy brands as called for...plus,
everything in between.
