Libby recognised an opportunity to support her existing circle of architects, designers and top end clients by leveraging her relationships with talented local fabricators and her own offshore procurement connections in order to deliver a consistently positive “added value” experience. Maximum NZ holds an agency for the large format porcelain panel material of the same name. This 3000x1500x6mm thick floor and wall cladding material blends the authenticity and size of natural stone slabs with the ease of installation and maintenance of porcelain. Indistinguishable from top end natural stones or reflecting the cool, contemporary looks of concrete, basalt or steel, Maximum by Fiandre provides designers with a unique, lightweight architectural finish with far greater resilience, strength and design flexibility than the products that inspired it.Libby partners with the very “best in class” organisations to supply bespoke materials at competitive rates nationwide to that niche circle of key influencers and clients.
