Thermotex B was a Celotex product that, by the sources' account, began under Philip Carey.1,2 A 1990 EPA notice that published what the Celotex Corporation reported, naming Philip Carey as its predecessor, says Thermotex-B was produced from 1906 to 1984 and contained 14% asbestos, asphalt and mineral stabilizer.2
An insurance company's 1981 list of asbestos products, compiled from other companies' answers in lawsuits, lists Thermotex B under Celotex as made from 1972 to 1981, the list's own year, with the note "PHILIP CAREY:1906-72."1
