Eternitwerke / Eternit-Werke Ludwig plant at Vöcklabruck, Austria

In March 1972, Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, reported that Eternitwerke of Vocklabruck, Austria, had installed "an automated plant for the preparation of asbestos" at a cost of "some 70 million schillings," grading the fiber lengths "required for asbestos-cement sheeting."1 A year later the same journal reported that Eternit-Werke Ludwig would start up "its sixth asbestos-cement sheet plant at the Vocklabruck facility," a machine "designed to produce 20 tons of sheeting each three-shift day."2
