Reference: DISCONTINUATION OF ASBESTOS-CONTAINING PRODUCTS BILLERICA PLANT
Gentlemen:
Effective December 31, 1985, Manville will discontinue production and shipping of all asbestos-containing Billerica Products. This will include all grades of Molten Metal Marinite and Marimet
Orders for Molten Metal Marinite and Marimet must be placed and accepted by August 23, 1985 and shipped prior to December 20, 1985.
Any orders received after August ve, 1985 will be accepted subject to product availability from existing inventory and Manville's ability to ship by December 20, 1985.
While Billerica will attempt to ship in accordance with customer needs, we will reserve the right to ship at our option and all orders will be contingent on this provision. This must be done to avoid the possibility of large numbers of orders being scheduled for the last several days of the shipping period.
The discontinuance of these products is made possible by the growing number of successes we are experiencing in trials of our new MetALmover product. This material is now available and can be ordered through your district office or Billerica Plant.
Very truly yours,
MANVILLE BUILDING MATERIALS CORPORATION Industrial Products Division
