===Facilities===
It is a [[Human]] company probably based on [[Earth]]. There are several windows in [[Wind Power Station 7]] on [[Zanzibar Island]] with this name (possibly the name of an Earth company) written on them, with "09" written underneath in smaller lettering. In ''[[Halo 3]]'', Traxus has been seen on the cargo crates similar to the way [[COBB Industries]] was referenced on crates in ''[[Halo 2]]''. Based on these appearances, it is probably some form of shipping or transport company or perhaps manufacturing. The word "Traxus" can also be seen at the beginning of the ''Halo 3: Keep it Clean trailer'', in the city of [[New Mombasa]], possibly confirming it is involved in shipping as New Mombasa is a busy port having proximity to the prominent orbital transport in the center of the city.
Traxus Heavy Industries maintained a large network of warehouses on Earth to ease the storage of supplies and goods.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/locations/earth|SiteName=Halo Waypoint|PageName=Earth}} Traxus Heavy Industries also had a few office buildings in the city of [[New Mombasa]].{{Ref/Level|Id=mombasa|Halo 3: ODST|[[Mombasa Streets]]}}


The company had facilities in the following cities and locations:
As seen in multiplayer gaming, [[Avalanche (Level)|Avalanche]], [[Blackout (Level)|Blackout]], [[Ghost Town (Level)|Ghost Town]], [[High Ground (Level)|High Ground]], [[The Pit (Level)|The Pit]], [[Last Resort (Level)|Last Resort]], [[Rat's Nest (Level)|Rat's Nest]] and [[Floodgate (Level)|Floodgate]] hold available props that have the word "Traxus" printed on them.

==Production notes==
== Trivia ==
*The company's name is a reference to [https://marathongame.fandom.com/wiki/Traxus_IV Traxus IV], an AI that went rampant in the ''[[Marathon]]'' series. The name "Traxus" is an anagram for "Art Sux" - or "Suxart" spelled backwards.{{Ref/Twitter|vicdeleon|1378803734818394114|Vic DeLeon|Quote=TRAXUS is an an anagram for Art Sux/SuxArt. That’s it for today. I’ll let someone else chime in.|D=05|M=4|Y=2021}}

*Part of [[Halo 3]]'s [[campaign]] takes place in [[Traxus Factory Complex 09]].
