Engineered Composite Systems: Styrene-led volume
Among the 1,504 Plastics and Rubber facilities in this database, Engineered Composite Systems reports the 222nd-largest volume, placing it in the top 14.8% 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 Texas include Contitech USA LLC and Sundance Boats.
Concentrated means ≥60% of Engineered Composite Systems's pounds in one chemical - here Styrene at 100%. Not a toxicity score.
