Titan / Carlstar — Jackson
Titan International announced that it will close its Jackson, Tennessee manufacturing facility by the end of October 2026. Because the closure is not yet effective, Sentinel treats this as a forward review target rather than declaring current regulatory records stale.
Facility identity
Facility: Titan Tire Corporation / former Carlstar Jackson operation
Address: 440 North Parkway, Jackson, TN 38305
Closure announced: March 18, 2026
Expected closure: by end of October 2026
Program identity: historical federal environmental records exist for the Jackson facility, but the current post-Carlstar program set still requires exact-state verification before publication as a current authorization inventory.
What the public record shows
Titan's March 18, 2026 announcement states that the Jackson facility will close by the end of October 2026 and that production will be transitioned to other existing Titan facilities. Local business records identify Titan Tire Corporation at 440 North Parkway in Jackson.
Historical EPA materials also identify Titan Tire Corporation in Jackson, Tennessee. Those historical records are useful for predecessor continuity, but Sentinel does not present an old program snapshot as the current regulatory state without a fresh exact-site check.
Evidence boundary
The announced closure is pre-effective. Current records are not stale merely because a future shutdown is planned, and historical predecessor records are quarantined from current-state conclusions. The next diligence boundary is the effective closure date and the facility's program-specific status after operations cease.
