Thermoid Division, H. K. Porter Company, Inc. plant at Charlotte, North Carolina

The Thermoid Division of H. K. Porter Company ran an asbestos textile plant at Charlotte, North Carolina.3 In November 1967, Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, reported that a rewettable lagging "was developed at the Charlotte, North Carolina, asbestos textiles plant of the Thermoid Division, where all raw material for the adhesive is formulated and mixed."1

The journal followed new lines there. In February 1970 it reported a lint-free knitted Portersite felt, "under development for the past two years at the asbestos textile plant at Charlotte," as "now in full production."2 In April 1972 it reported that Porter Clean-Gard Safety Cloth was "now in full production at the asbestos textiles plant at Charlotte," joining "an existing line of a variety of treated and untreated asbestos safety cloths."3
