Waste Managed by Parent Company
Facilities that report to the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) must provide information about their parent company. For TRI reporting, parent company means the highest-level company (or companies) of the facility’s ownership hierarchy as of December 31 of the year for which data are being reported. EPA groups facilities by parent company to assess waste management at the parent company level and identify companies that regularly implement source reduction activities.
This figure shows the parent companies whose facilities reported the most waste managed for 2022.
Notes: 1) This figure uses EPA’s standardized parent company names. 2) To view facility counts by parent company, hover over the bar graph. 3) Incobrasa Industries Ltd does not report a parent company but it is included in this figure because it reported a comparable quantity of waste managed.
These parent companies’ TRI-reporting facilities mostly operate in the following industry sectors:
- Chemical manufacturing: Sabic US Holdings LP, Advansix Inc, Dow Inc, The Chemours Company, Syngenta Corp, Westlake Corp
- Soybean processing: Incobrasa Industries Ltd
- Metal mining: Teck American Inc
- Multiple sectors, e.g., pulp and paper, petroleum refining, computer and electronic products, and chemical manufacturing: Koch Industries Inc, Honeywell International Inc
You can find information about a specific parent company and compare facilities’ waste management methods and trends for any TRI chemical by using the TRI P2 Search Tool.
