Roofing Compounds Total market 61,000 tons "Calidria" share 510 tons (0.8% of total) Market includes primarily asphalt compounds using asbestos as a flow control agent. Much of the market requires slightly longer fibers than "Calidria" has available. Realistically we can probably only compete for perhaps 10% of the total or 6100 tons. Major competitors - Johns-Manville - Most Canadian suppliers Carey -" " " Bell -" " " Market is as follows: J-M 60% Carey 20% Bell 19% "Calidria" 1% II. Coatings & Compounds Total market 35,200 tons "Calidria" share 940 tons (2.7% of total) "Calidria" participates primarily in the asphaltic coatings portion of this market which excludes roof coatings. Products include automotive undercoats, coatings for water proofing below grade concrete and for driveways and tennis UCC 005307 courts. The portion of the market in which "Calidria" might compete is unknown, but is probably at least 1/3 of the total market Major competitors - Canadian producers Market is split by all manufacturers (primarily Canadian) and represents an outlet for as much short fiber product as can be allocated to this high volume, low cost application. III. Plastics Total market 6,400 tons "Calidria" shares 720 tons (11.3% of total) Market includes primarily plastics used for structures, molded goods, etc. Larger segments include chemical resistant fibers, molded phenolic parts and some rubber goods. "Calidria" participates primarly in the latter two areas. Major competitors - Johns-Manville Market is split as follows: J-M 89% "Calidria" 11% UCC 005308 I- Aftm ifcfr 'Calidria" Participation in Typical Domestic Asbestos Markets in 1978 Flooring Products Domestic Market, Tons 147,000 Roofing 61,000 Coatings & compounds (Asphaltic Coatings) 35.200 Plastics (Phenolic & Rubber) 6,400 Drilling Muds 8,000 Other 24,000 Potential Seqments, Tons 75,000 "Calidria" Share of Seqment Tons % 17,500 23.3 6,000 500 r8.3 12,000 1,000 8.3 6,000 8,000 24,000 (?) 700 3,000 2,300 11.7 37.5 9.6 TOTAL 281,600 131,000 25,000 19.1 REB 4/30/79 UCC 005309 DOMESTIC "Calidria" Markets - Not Typical Asbestos (Viscosity Control) Adhesives Sealants Polyester Laminates Coatings TOTAL Tons 280 430 100 550 Total Market* 2500 1500 3400 4600 1360 12,000 UCC % 1 1 .2 28.7 2.9 12.0 1 1.3 *Total Market estimates - Modern Plastics, January, 1979 - C & P sources (Skeist Laboratory Market Analyses - 1978) - Assumed nominal loadings for "Calidria", i.e., 1% in polyesters, etc. UCC 005310 Markets for `'Calidria" - Mot Typical Asbestos I.
