J. M. Huber Corporation
 PROFILE
Toothpaste, paint, and tires -- J. M. Huber claims to make them even better. Founded in 1883 by Joseph Maria Huber, the company makes specialty additives and minerals used to thicken and improve the cleaning properties of toothpaste, the brightness and gloss of paper, the strength and durability of rubber, and flame retardant properties of wire and cable. The international firm also makes oriented strand board (a plywood substitute) and sells wood to the furniture, construction, and paper industries. Huber manages a half-million acres of timberland in Maine and the southeastern US, and owns about 100 million tons of coal reserves. The company also is an oil and gas producer. Heirs of the founder own J. M. Huber.
