Sall Mountain Co. plant at Rockdale, Ohio

Sall Mountain Company's mill stood "in a peaceful valley in the village of Rockdale, seven miles north of Hamilton, Ohio," according to a March 1955 profile in Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, which reported that the property "was acquired by Sall Mountain Company in 1913 from the American Strawboard Company."1 A 1920 Sall Mountain advertisement for its SAL-MO asbestos products listed Rockdale, Ohio, among its four factories, with Porter, Indiana; Chicago; and Scranton, Pennsylvania, without saying which product was made where.2 That advertisement offered "Asbestos Paper, Millboard, Pipe Covering and Cements" under the SAL-MO name, a description of the line in general rather than of Rockdale's output.2

In 1955 the journal put the mill's daily capacity at "sixty to eighty tons of asbestos paper and board," with its asbestos fibres "supplied from the company's own mines in the Province of Quebec, Canada."1 It reported that the plant gave employment to "approximately 125 people," drawn mainly from Hamilton and Middletown.1
