AI assistants named these companies too, but MacRAE'S lists them in a different state, not Texas. They belong to that state's ranking, not this one.
| Company | State | Mentions |
|---|---|---|
| Genesis Systems | Nebraska | 2 of 15 |

The five questions we asked
Every company in this cell is measured on the same questions, written the way a buyer would type them. That is what makes the ranking a comparison rather than a collection of anecdotes.
- 1“Best suppliers of industrial valves in Texas”
- 2“Who supplies high-pressure stainless steel ball valves in Texas”
- 3“I need a Texas industrial valve partner for a new chemical processing line, who should I talk to”
- 4“Top industrial valve suppliers in Texas for plant maintenance buyers”
- 5“Which Texas industrial valve suppliers can handle cryogenic service valves with documented testing”
- 6“List 20 industrial valves companies in Texas with their specialties.”the roster question
Each question is asked more than once, which is why a company's score is out of 15 answers rather than out of the number of questions.
