About Meganite
Meganite was founded in 1976 by a chemical engineer in Taiwan. Meganite is a family-owned business that started out manufacturing composite materials like resins, gel coats and colorants. In 1994, the business formed a ‘joint venture with key American building materials distributors’ to create Meganite Solid Surface. The company takes pride in providing ‘quality products to Architects & Designers, and end customers.’
Meganite is a brand owned by ForestOne, Australia’s largest independent distributor of wood panel, timber, and decorative surface materials. (Meganite)
