Where this facility sits in the TRI record
Among the 3,917 Chemicals facilities in this database, Mobile Paint Manufacturing Co Inc reports the 774th-largest volume, placing it in the top 19.8% of its sector.
Placement is computed from reported TRI pounds in this database. Thresholds are fixed across every facility page: concentrated ≥60% of volume in one chemical, county-dominant ≥25% of the county total, carcinogen-heavy ≥50% of pounds. Share-based statements are shown only for sites reporting at least 1,000 lbs, because a share of a very small total is not a meaningful signal. Reported pounds are self-reported estimates and do not measure toxicity or health risk.
Mobile Paint Manufacturing Co Inc files annual Form R disclosures to the EPA Toxics Release Inventory under EPCRA Section 313, classified under NAICS 325510 (Chemicals). Across 5 years of records spanning 2019–2023, the site has disclosed 130.1K lbs in cumulative toxic releases across 10 distinct chemicals, 2 of which (20%) carry a carcinogenic classification. Largest chemicals by pounds: Xylene (mixed isomers); 1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene; Ethylbenzene; Methyl isobutyl ketone.
The dominant release pathway is air releases at 130.1K lbs (100.0% of total volume). Between 2019 and 2023, reported totals decreased by 7% - from 27.3K lbs to 25.4K lbs. The facility is operated under parent company Mobile Paint Manufacturing Co Inc. Nearest other TRI reporters: Oldcastle - Theodore Block; Chart Inc. - Theodore; United Initiators; High-Purity Silicon America Corp. Similar-scale peers outside Alabama: Lubrizol Advanced Materials Inc; Nexpera - Morses Mill; St. Marks Powder Inc.; Green Plains Shenandoah LLC.
TRI Form R values are self-reported estimates, not measured stack emissions, and treat every pound of reported chemical equally regardless of toxicity. Inclusion in the TRI database does not establish a health risk to nearby residents; it documents the annual reporting record that Mobile Paint Manufacturing Co Inc has filed with the EPA under federal community right-to-know requirements - open Oldcastle - Theodore Block for a different chemical mix before treating volume as risk.

About TRI Data
Data as of 2023 reporting year. Source: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Toxic Release Inventory.
Data comes from the EPA Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) program. Facilities that manufacture, process, or otherwise use listed toxic chemicals above threshold amounts are required to report annually to the EPA.
On this page the largest disclosed chemicals include Xylene (mixed isomers), 1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene, Ethylbenzene, Methyl isobutyl ketone; nearby reporters include Oldcastle - Theodore Block. "Total releases" includes air, water, land, and off-site transfers for disposal, aggregated across available reporting years. Quantities are self-reported estimates, not measured stack emissions.
PlainEnviro presents this data without advocacy framing. The presence of a facility in the TRI database does not by itself indicate a health risk. For site-specific health questions, consult your local environmental or health agency.
