As Bryan, Texas-based CC Creations (PPAI 627157, Platinum) continues building out its brand-new 210,000-square-foot facility, it has invested in climate-controlled environments for employees and added new M&R Gauntlet 4 screen-printing machines and Tajima embroidery equipment.

The company reduced natural gas consumption by 10% in 2025 by using lower-cure inks, reducing dryer and flash temperatures, and upgrading regulators. While its production volume increased, resulting in a 7% rise in gas usage per print, CC Creations’ overall efficiency gains offset this, leading to lower total consumption. The company reduced its electricity usage by 11.2% by adjusting HVAC systems and lighting.
