In December 1967, Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, reported that Hellenit "is to establish a $2-million asbestos-cement plant in Salonica, Northern Greece."2 In January 1969 the same journal reported that Hellenic Industry for Building Materials S.A. "began the production of asbestos-cement pipes at its new HELLENIT Plant at Thessaloniki, Greece, on June 13, 1968," eight years after the company's first factory opened near Chalkis.1
