L.A. Reynolds founded his company in the early 1900s with a horse and wagon and fruit trees he sold to Piedmont farmers. After World War II, his four sons expanded the company into construction and landscaping activities. The company, headquartered in Winston-Salem, is one of the ten largest asphalt paving companies in the state, and its commercial landscaping division is one of the most progressive in the country. Gross sales exceeded $10 million in 1972.

Abstract:

Kamlar Corporation, a company headquartered in Winston-Salem and with production facilities near Pantego, has found an important use for pine bark in mulching and decorative landscaping. Kamlar takes the bark, ages it a few months, screens it into varied sizes, and then bags it for shipment. This is an alternative to piling and burning the bark, further polluting the air and rendering the land unuseful.
