In September 1963 Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, reported plans for Ferodo (Pty.) Limited in South Africa: "It is probable that a new factory will be erected on a site in Durban adjacent to the existing factory of Turners Asbestos Products (Pty.) Limited."1 At first, the journal said, "the range of products to be manufactured will comprise brake linings, clutch facings and compressed asbestos fibre jointing."1 The item describes a plan; no source here says the factory was built.1
