In August 1951, the Puerto Rico Asbestos Cement Products Corporation of Ponce, Puerto Rico, announced in Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, that it "will start installing a plant for the manufacture of asbestos cement products" and expected it to be running "around October of this year."1 The company said the plant would make corrugated asbestos cement sheets, flat sheets and hand-moulded products.1 This was a plan; the item does not say the plant was built.1
