A 1947 photograph of the founding location of the RiteScreen company, which currently has a major plant at 4313 Route 209, Elizabethville [Washington Township], Dauphin County, Pennsylvania.
This photo appeared in an ad for RiteScreen in the Elizabethville Bicentennial Program Book, 2017.
According to the ad:
Founded in 1947, RiteScreen began manufacturing insect screens in an airplane hanger in 1947. It evolved within the portfolio of J. T. Walker Industries.
RiteScreen was purchased by Seven Point Equity Partners in June 2014 and is now the largest stand-alone supplier of assembled screens in North America.
With 7 strategically located plants throughout the U.S., we employ over 460 employees, including 200 in our local Elizabethville facility.
