Mr. Lyle, President and Chief Executive Officer, has in excess of 45 years experience in the automotive floor covering business since he started his career with the Redfield Corporation in 1973 where he served as Manufacturing Manager. Redfield was a manufacturer of molded floorpan carpet for automotive giants, such as, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler.
