The plates on which we dine during a casual meal out. Custom-built trailers that help pave our roads. Equipment that turns out cheese and other milk products. In these and many other ways the units of Carlisle's General Industry segment serve everyday life. The very best in service. Carlisle FoodService Products offers more than 16,000 different items, from small sauce cups to full-scale salad bars, for restaurants and institutions; the acquisition of Dura-Ware adds a proven line of cookware and serving utensils. Carlisle Home Products markets specialty ceramic tableware. Sanitary Maintenance Products makes janitorial supplies, including Omnisweep, an angled broom that represents the first new design in years.
The business of Carlisle Transportation Products is trailers. Walker Transportation builds stainless steel dairy and chemical tank trailers. Custom-built trailers from Trail King Industries, including lowbed and dump models, set the industry standard. The addition of Red River expands these offerings into live bottom trailers that, with their conveyor-belt mechanisms, feed asphalt into road-paving apparatus.
Foods and pharmaceuticals. Carlisle Systems & Equipment has four units serving the food and pharmaceutical markets. Johnson Truck Bodies builds refrigerated units for food-delivery vehicles. Walker Equipment makes stainless steel apparatus for storage and processing for dairy and other applications. A Walker spinoff, Carlisle Life Sciences, which unites the former Pharmaceutical Systems and the newly acquired Extract Technologies, Ltd., specializes in containment systems for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. Carlisle Process Systems has integrated its capabilities of manufacturing equipment for the production of cheese and milk powders by bringing together Scherping Systems International and five acquisitions - Damrow, Zimmer, Process Controls Engineering, Bontech, and a joint venture with Moody Parts.
