Wpc Technologies is an EPA Toxics Release Inventory reporter in Oak Creek, WI, in the chemicals sector. It reported 108.1K lbs of releases across 5 chemicals in 2023, and 2.4M lbs in total across its 2019-2023 reporting years. That ranks 755 of 25,986 TRI facilities nationwide by cumulative reported pounds, counting each facility over however many years it has filed. In Wisconsin's 836 reporting TRI sites, pounds #1 is not chemical-count #1. Wpc Technologies is pounds #14 and chemical-count #115 at 2.4M lbs. Mullins Cheese Inc leads reported pounds (11.2M lbs) at 3 chemicals (chemical-count #319). Ppg Industries Inc-Oak Creek leads chemical count at 32 chemicals (2.2M lbs, pounds #16). Reported volume fell against 2022. Pounds reported are not a measure of toxicity or health risk. Nearest other TRI reporters: Henkel US Operations Corp; Nucor Cold Finish Wisconsin Inc; Bay View Industries - North Facility; Ozinga Ready-Mix Concrete - Oak Creek. Similar-scale Chemicals peers outside Wisconsin: Mosaic Phosphates Co Faustina Plant; Koppers Performance Chemicals; Eden Custom Processing LLC; Lanxess - West Plant. Largest disclosed chemicals by pounds: Nitrate compounds (water dissociable; reportable only when in aqueous solution); Chromium compounds (except for chromite ore mined in the Transvaal Region); Zinc compounds; Chromium and Chromium Compounds(except for chromite ore mined in the Transvaal Region).
Wpc Technologies stamps HEAVY volume with a dominant OFFSITE pathway (100.0% off-site transfers) across 6 chemicals. Cumulative Form-R extract: 2.4M lbs (2019–2023). All figures are self-reported EPCRA §313 estimates, not measured stack emissions or a health-risk score. Scale peers include Mosaic Phosphates Co Faustina Plant and Koppers Performance Chemicals.
