Surgical appliances and supplies contract manufacturing services, including orthopedic devices, prosthetic appliances, crutches, surgical sutures, hospital beds, and operating room tables, performed using materials owned by others (i.e., the customer)
NAPCS COLLECTION CODE 2054077000
The U.S. Census Bureau recorded this product line in 2 US manufacturing industries in the 2022 Economic Census, as the most specific line those industries reported. At least 31 establishments reported producing it; the count for 1 of those industries was withheld.
That is a count of establishments by industry. It says how many establishments in each industry reported this product line; the Economic Census publishes these figures as industry totals and never as a list of plants. The largest share Census published for any one industry is 1.8% of that industry’s establishments.
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.
Facilities in those industries
FactoryRegistry lists 6,265 facilities whose primary industry classification is one of the 2 industries above. This is a list by industry, not a list of makers: Census reports that establishments in these industries produced Surgical appliances and supplies contract manufacturing services, including orthopedic devices, prosthetic appliances, crutches, surgical sutures, hospital beds, and operating room tables, performed using materials owned by others (i.e., the customer), in the shares shown above, and does not say which establishments. Where a plant’s own website or a federal registry names what that plant makes, it appears on the plant’s own page with the source named.
Source for the product line, the establishment counts and the shares: U.S. Census Bureau, 2022 Economic Census (ECNNAPCSIND2022). Federal source data is public domain. Facility records are compiled separately by FactoryRegistry and carry their own sources.
