United Asbestos Cement Limited plant at Tasek, Perak

In December 1966, Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, listed United Asbestos Cement Limited as "erecting an asbestos plant at Tasek, near Ipoh."2 In 1978 the same journal reported that Malaysia's Federal Industrial Development Authority had given United Asbestos Cement Berhad, "in which T&N has a 21.29% equity interest," approval "to build a new pipe manufacturing plant at Ipoh."1 That year James Hardie Asbestos, in an item printed in Asbestos, counted "a second pipe machine at Ipoh, Malaysia" among its company expansions.1
