Founding & Early Growth
ASP Enterprises is founded in St. Louis, Missouri by Harold Bade. Harold saw a commercial for the “Miracle fabric”, Mirafi, a black fabric that supposedly would extend the life of pavement. He sold 20 rolls that first year, purchased a full truckload the next year, and proceeded to be a technical source to the St. Louis engineering community for geosynthetics, a very new idea.
