Withheld means Census suppressed the figure because publishing it would disclose an individual establishment. The line itself is never suppressed — only the numbers on it.

The U.S. Census Bureau recorded this product line in 14 US manufacturing industries in the 2022 Economic Census, as the most specific line those industries reported. At least 1,290 establishments reported producing it; the count for 4 of those industries was withheld.

These are counts of establishments by industry: the Economic Census publishes them as industry totals and never as a list of plants.
