CARLISLE INTERCONNECT TECHNOLOGIES

back to 1940, when Henry Dudley Minich organized what was then known as Tensolite. At first Carlisle Interconnect Technologies consisted of a research laboratory employing 6 people in an old converted house at 7 Hudson Street in North Tarrytown, New York. While in the Hudson Street location, investigations into the properties and commercial possibilities of various plastics and synthetic fibers were carried out. The initial emphasis was on such products as yarn, bristles, surgical sutures, decorative cords, ribbon and plastic textile sheeting.
