American Insulex Corporation plant at Berkeley, California

In December 1920, Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, passed on California newspaper reports that the American Insulex Corporation of Berkeley had started production of heat insulating material and fireproof paint and planned "to erect the first unit of their manufacturing plant in Berkeley, Calif."1 The journal said the company made a steam-pipe covering "known as Insulex" and "Asbestos Fireproof sprays."1 No source here says the planned plant was built.1
