Asbestos at Union Carbide’s Texas City Plant
Union Carbide’s Texas City chemical plant was first opened by the company in 1941. Dow Chemical Company later assumed operation of the plant when it purchased Union Carbide in 2001.
Dow / Union Carbide’s Texas City plant currently produces more than 30 different types of chemical products, including aldehydes, organic acids, and vinyl acetate that can be found in plastics, solvents, ink, brake fluid, pharmaceutical products, and many other different types of consumer products.
During the decades after it first opened, many pipelines, sinks, vats, vessels, and other materials found at the Union Carbide Texas City chemical plant contained asbestos, putting workers at this facility at risk of mesothelioma cancer, asbestos lung cancer, or other diseases caused by asbestos exposure.
Over the past few decades, the Union Carbide Company has been the subject of many asbestos lawsuits filed by former workers who were diagnosed with diseases such as mesothelioma or lung cancer as a result of exposure at the company’s facilities.
