American Manufacturing Made Possible by Texas
Texas’ economic output is enormous and vital to building a stronger, more resilient American economy. Three examples:
Solar Energy
Texas is an epicenter for solar panel innovation and manufacturing, contributing to America’s energy independence.
Agribusiness
Texas’ unrivalled livestock/crops are processed and sold to all of America… and the world.
Tech/Computer/Electronics
This high-tech manufacturing sector in Texas has experienced massive growth and now accounts for 20% of U.S. exports in this sector.
To expand these economic contributions to the American way of life, Texas manufacturers are reliant on a steady supply of:
Innovative plastic that bonds, seals, insulates and protects delicate solar cells and makes solar energy more efficient.
Modern plastic packaging that protects Texas food products and prevents food waste.
State-of-the-art plastic that houses, insulates and protects sensitive high-tech electronics in our cars, phones, laptops, medical devices, cell towers, smart speakers, drones…
Texas Manufacturing Relies on Texas Workers (and Plastic)
