During the 1950s and '60s, Kentile Floors was one of America's largest manufacturers of super-resilient floor tile, and it was a national tile distributor. The company's asphalt and vinyl tile products contained asbestos to increase the tiles durability and resistance to fire. Kentile sold products that contained as much as 25 percent asbestos, without consideration to the health effects associated with asbestos exposure.
