A Legacy of Innovation

For more than fifty years, Maxxon has been recognized as a pioneer and leader in floor technologies. They’ve set the standard for innovation in underlayment products and advanced acoustic isolation systems, and with the launch of Ventek Building Envelope Products in 2024, they continue to build on their legacy of delivering high-performance flooring solutions.

In recent years, Maxxon felt like a key piece of the puzzle was missing: a simple, reliable way to manage their marketing, sales, and technical files—one that kept their teams aligned, and their workflows efficient. In 2025, Maxxon joined forces with Prodify, the industry’s first all-in-one Digital Asset Management (DAM) and Product Information Management (PIM) solution. As Prodify’s strategic partner, they’re helping redefine how manufacturers manage their product content.

No More Playing Hide-and-Seek with Files

Before Prodify, Maxxon’s marketing and sales files were saved across different platforms and lost in personal folders. Time was often wasted chasing down files, sometimes without success.

With Prodify, Maxxon completely transformed their search process. They consolidated everything into a single, centralized library, and enriched each of their assets with metadata and tags to make them instantly discoverable. By combining multiple filters, the team can now pinpoint files 10× faster than before, saving them between 5–10 hours every week.

“We now have a single, reliable location for our core sales and marketing materials,”
says Sheila Gullickson, Product Marketing Manager at Maxxon. “It’s made it much easier to keep everything organized, accessible, and ready to share when needed.”

Making Maxxon’s Version Confusion Disappear

When Maxxon partnered with Prodify, the goal was clear: to eliminate inefficiencies and improve how technical content is managed. Like many growing organizations, Maxxon faced challenges ensuring their teams were always working from the most current data sheets, CAD/3D drawings, and installation guides.

Prodify’s team collaborated closely with Maxxon to develop a robust version control system that automatically tracks who makes an update and when. With a single click, Maxxon can now access a complete version history for every file—delivering total clarity and confidence across departments.

Their partnership with Prodify proves that when technology meets teamwork, amazing things happen: communication improves, errors decrease, and file management thrives. Maxxon values Prodify’s commitment to listening, adapting, and evolving the platform to meet the real-world needs of its business.

“Version control used to be a challenge for us, but Prodify has made it much easier to manage. The platform helps us stay organized, plus it's backed by a responsive team that’s always finding new ways to make the platform even better for us. We’ve seen firsthand how committed they are to our success.”

The Next Step in Maxxon’s Prodify Journey

This is just the start for Maxxon. Now that their files are organized and easy to access, they’re ready to open things up and start sharing with external users and AEC prospects. They’re currently setting up custom groups to share assets with all the right people in just a few clicks.

They’re also creating public links that connect their design assets directly to their website and CADdetails profile. The magic of public links is that they update automatically whenever a file changes in Prodify, ensuring that Maxxon’s CAD drawings, 3D models, and specifications stay consistent and current across their channels without the hassle of manual updates.

Maxxon is excited to continue unlocking the full potential of Prodify. As they continue to explore everything it has to offer and share valuable feedback, they’re leading the way toward smarter file management for building product manufacturers.
