List of Asbestos Companies

Many industries and companies used asbestos for its durability and fire resistance. The mineral was a key component in industrial processes for much of the 20th century. Manufacturers also used it in many consumer products. Companies that used asbestos exposed their employees and customers, putting them at risk for asbestos-related cancers.

These companies may have liability for any asbestos diseases caused by their products or processes. An experienced asbestos attorney can help determine who may be liable for a person’s asbestos disease.

The following list contains known asbestos companies. It should not be considered a complete list. There may be more companies than those listed here that put individuals at risk of asbestos exposure. An attorney can help determine if a company on this list may have caused a person’s exposure.

02. Background

History of the Asbestos Business and Industry

Asbestos use in the United States dates back to the late 1800s. It was cheap, durable and fire-resistant. These properties led many companies to incorporate the mineral into processes and products. This trend continued until the dangers of asbestos became well known nearly a century later.

Many companies learned of the link between asbestos and health problems decades before the public at large. It took public and regulatory pressure to get most companies to finally stop using the mineral.

A variety of industries relied on asbestos, including:

  • Asbestos suppliers: These companies sold asbestos to other companies.
  • Mining companies: These companies mined the mineral and sold it to suppliers. The last asbestos mine in the United States closed in 2002.
  • Product manufacturers: These companies made products that incorporated asbestos materials.
  • Product users: These companies used products that contained asbestos. Construction companies fall into this category.
  • Sellers and distributors: These companies sold asbestos products. Auto parts stores and building supply warehouses fall into this category.

During the asbestos heyday, a few notable companies built thriving businesses from asbestos products. One of the best known of these companies is Johns-Manville. It operated asbestos mines and produced asbestos construction materials.

Similarly, Johnson & Johnson (J&J) sold asbestos-contaminated talcum powder products for years. Companies like these now face asbestos lawsuits because their products hurt and killed people.

Is Asbestos Used in the United States Today?

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has not yet fully banned asbestos. Some forms can still be legally imported. But the agency recently banned chrysotile asbestos. At the time of the ban, it was the only form of asbestos currently used or imported in the country.

Asbestos use and importation have been declining for years. But the EPA’s recent actions are an important step toward a true end to asbestos use in the United States.

Asbestos Occupations

For many years, asbestos was a component in a variety of products. As a result, people from all walks of life and occupations came into contact with it. Blue-collar workers and veterans are among those most likely to have been in contact with asbestos.

Being exposed can cause workers to develop asbestos diseases, such as lung cancer and mesothelioma. Individuals exposed to asbestos at work may be eligible for compensation.

Asbestos Products

Companies and manufacturers included asbestos in a wide range of products. Building materials, automotive parts and personal care products contained the mineral.

Until recently, many products in the United States could still contain up to 1% asbestos. The EPA’s recent chrysotile ban will stop many of these uses by 2026. Despite this, consumers can still encounter asbestos in vintage products. For example, classic cars and older homes may contain asbestos. Working in such environments as a DIYer could put you at risk of asbestos exposure and related illnesses.

03. Common Liable Companies

List of Most Common Asbestos Defendants

People diagnosed with asbestos-related diseases may file lawsuits to seek compensation. The companies listed below are commonly named in litigation due to the widespread use of their asbestos products. They are considered viable defendants, or companies financially capable of withstanding a lawsuit.

Asbestos companies often settle mesothelioma lawsuits before they go to trial. However, some may defend asbestos lawsuits until the end of the legal process.

Most of the companies listed here are still financially solvent and in operation today.


04. Bankrupt Companies

List of Bankrupt Asbestos Companies

Companies that face extensive litigation over asbestos exposure may declare bankruptcy. They may do this because of the overwhelming litigation costs, loss of business or the cost of stopping asbestos use. During bankruptcy proceedings, many companies create trust funds to provide compensation to present and future asbestos victims.

The companies listed below have all filed for bankruptcy and established trust funds. To make a claim on one of these asbestos bankruptcy trusts, claimants must meet the fund’s eligibility requirements. An asbestos lawyer can determine if you are eligible to file a claim.

*These companies are in the process of filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and creating asbestos trust funds.

Though peak asbestos use occurred several decades ago, some companies are just now in the process of creating bankruptcy trusts. For example, in 2021, J&J created a subsidiary called LTL Management LLC to handle talcum powder claims. This subsidiary immediately filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy and said it would fund its trust with $2 billion. Courts have rejected this bankruptcy plan twice, citing J&J’s ample financial resources.

05. Other Companies

List of Other Asbestos Defendants

Hundreds of companies used asbestos. Many of them willfully covered up their usage for many years. As a result, it may be difficult for asbestos-exposure victims to remember all of them. An experienced asbestos law firm can help patients uncover possible companies responsible for their exposure.
