Johns-Manville Corporation / Johns-Manville plant at Hayward, California

In January 1964, J-M News Pictorial, Johns-Manville's employee magazine, reported that in Hayward, California, "J-M's Flooring Division will begin construction in February of its fifth floor tile plant," a plant expected to employ "some 125 persons when in full production."3 Looking back in 1967, a Johns-Manville article in the same magazine said construction was begun in 1964 on "an asphalt and vinyl asbestos floor tile plant at Hayward, Calif."1

By December 1965 the plant was running: Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, reported that Johns-Manville Corporation "is producing asphalt-asbestos and vinyl-asbestos floor tile at its new floor tile plant in Hayward, California."2
