About Our Founder
After the war, Frank Min wanted to learn more about acrylic plastic. Returning to Hawaii, he and his wife, Elaine traveled first by boat and then by plane to New York City. He studied at New York Technical School and later enrolled at New York University. He spent 5 years learning, working with acrylics, and selling his fabricated plastics to specialty shops.
He returned to Hawaii in June 1950 and opened Min's Workshop & Supply with the intention of starting a hobby and craft shop teaching leather craft, metals, woodwork, and plastics. However, he found there was an interest and a need of the acrylic material by the government and industry. In 1959, Min's Workshop was appointed an authorized distributor of Rohm & Haas products. In 1972, the company incorporated and changed its name to Min Plastics & Supply, Inc.
