The biggest contributor to Walter Industries' sales is its industrial products unit, which includes U.S. Pipe (which makes iron pressure pipe), Sloss Industries (which sells foundry and furnace coke), and JW Aluminum. Its AIMCOR unit markets coke and ferrosilicon. The company's homebuilding unit includes Jim Walter Homes (single family homes in 18 states), Crestline Homes (modular homes), and Walter Mortgage (home financing).
