On November 1, 1950, the Paraffine Companies, Inc. name was changed to Pabco Products Inc., and on May 1, 1956, it was changed once again to Fibreboard Paper Products Corporation. The name Fibreboard Corporation was adopted on June 29, 1966.
In 1997, Owens Corning acquired a company named Fibreboard Corporation with an eclectic set of operations. The California-based vinyl siding manufacturer and ski resort operator also made asbestos-containing industrial insulation, floor coverings and other products from 1920 to 1971.
Asbestos References:
In the back of this flooring catalog is a promotion of Pabco products that includes "California Originals in Pabco siding". The siding was composed of asbestos cement and was promoted as having built-in color that was lasting, fireproof and weather-resistant.
