The Philip Carey Mfg. Company / The Philip Carey Mfg. Co. plant at Perth Amboy, New Jersey

In August 1941, Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, reported that the Philip Carey company "has recently purchased a new plant at Perth Amboy, N. J., and expect to get possession on September 1."1 The journal said that "asbestos and rag felts, as well as a complete line of asphalt roofings and shingles will be manufactured by this new factory."1 Its December 1941 review of the year again noted that the company "purchased a plant at Perth Amboy, N. J."2

A 1953 article in Asbestos gave the start as 1942: "to better serve the eastern market," Carey established a Perth Amboy, New Jersey, plant in 1942 "for the manufacture of their complete line."3 In December 1945, a Philip Carey report printed in Asbestos said that "additions to the plants at Lockland and Perth Amboy, begun during the war years, are about ready to start operation."4
