American Polymer Co: Styrene-led volume
Among the 1,504 Plastics and Rubber facilities in this database, American Polymer Co reports the 360th-largest volume, placing it in the top 23.9% of its sector. Its reported volume is concentrated rather than spread: Styrene alone is 100% of the total. Carcinogen-classified chemicals make up 100% of the reported pounds, not just of the chemical count. Scale peers outside Florida include Mack Molding and J.p. Inc. DBA Jasper Plastic Solutions.
Concentrated means ≥60% of American Polymer Co's pounds in one chemical - here Styrene at 100%. Not a toxicity score.
