2018 promises to be a big year for W.H. Maze Company.
The Peru, Ill.-based company is celebrating its 170th year in business as a nail manufacturer and retail lumberyard. In operation since 1848, Maze continues to be the largest manufacturer of specialty nails supplying U.S. and Canadian customers with millions of pounds of nails each year.
The Maze lumber operation continues to thrive as well. In fact, according to Maze, it’s the oldest lumberyard in the state.
The fifth and sixth generations of the founder, Samuel Maze, work at the manufacturing facility; and all Maze Nails are 100% made in the USA in Peru, Ill.
Maze Nails offers a full line of specialty nails in bulk for hand driving and in collated sticks and coils for popular pneumatic nailers. Its exclusive Stormguard double hot-dipped galvanized coating provides ultimate corrosion-resistance, Maze Nails said.
A full line of stainless steel nails is also available. Offerings include nails for decking and trim, fiber cement, cedar and redwood sidings, fencing, and various types of roofing. Maze eco-friendly nails are made from more than 90% recycled, re-melted steel to support sustainable building.
