When industry poses a problem . .

Arborite provides an answer

Arborite-covered wall on cigarette - making floor in the Imperial Tobacco Co. of Canada Ltd. factory at Guelph.

THE PROBLEM: Imperial Tobacco Company of Canada Limited, when designing their factory at Guelph, Ontario, were confronted with the problem of selecting a wall covering material that would fulfill several widely diversified requirements-the first being its ability to stand up under rigidly controlled conditions for a prolonged period of time. Other primary requirements were:

• Freedom from maintenance • To be competitively priced

• To remain impervious to a constantly high humidity level

• Beauty

THE SOLUTION: ARBORITE 6 (1/16") bonded to wood core for walls, and ARBORITE POSTFORMED

GRADE bonded to wood core for pillars.

That ARBORITE has met all these requirements and met them in full-is attested to by the fact that Imperial Tobacco's plant at Guelph was completed in 1959 and to date all ARBORITE installations have performed as specified.
