Materion Electronics Materials: Lead-led volume
Among the 1,603 Primary Metals facilities in this database, Materion Electronics Materials reports the 617th-largest volume (23.8K lbs). Its reported volume is concentrated rather than spread: Lead alone is 88.3% of the total. Carcinogen-classified chemicals make up 88.3% of the reported pounds, not just of the chemical count. Scale peers outside New York include Donsco Inc and Handytube LLC.
Concentrated means ≥60% of Materion Electronics Materials's pounds in one chemical - here Lead at 88.3%. Not a toxicity score.
