In April 1972, Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, wrote that "Silamianto S.A.S. (Societa Italiana Lavorazione Amianto) is the only plant in Italy that produces asbestos insulating materials."1 It said Caposite was produced there "to meet the requirements of two companies, both based in Turin," and that the "essential raw material, Amosite asbestos, is supplied by Cape Asbestos Fibres Ltd."1 The article does not name the town.1
