Mr. Payton’s two sons join the company. The addition of David J. Payton & Matthew E. Payton allow the company to take a more aggressive approach to marketing current products and searching for new products.
Mr. Payton builds an addition. This expansion onto the Keating address triples the size of the facility to 6,800 square feet.
Jack L. Payton purchases the company from Mr. Moser. Mr. Payton begins to market products almost entirely to wholesale hardware distributors, which opens many new doors and opportunities.

Atlas Putty Products is founded by Benjamin T. Cope. The company operates at 1515 W. Carroll Street in Chicago and manufactures just three products for sale in the consumer and industrial markets: glazing compound; plumber’s putty; and caulking compound.
