It is one of the the City's oldest weapon foundries, being said to have been around when the city didn't have Walls around its perimeter and towers.
History
Early City Age

Late City Age
Tex Mechanica has been known to involve themselves in shady business dealings, it's mindset in still of that of the Early ages. They attempted to bribe Lord Shaxx into fixing Crucible matches to make their weapons look good, but Shaxx threatened them with sending a squad of Titans into their factory at the suggestion. To smooth things out, they shipped him free weapons.[2] They also accepted a substantial bribe from the player in return for getting into the next phase of their shotgun contest.[3]

Company Slogan that can be found on The Huckleberry SMG:
We used to play for keeps. Used to be that was the only way. Back in those days trust came slow, or not at all. The only thing you could truly rely on was the iron at your side.
Fate of the world? Immortal gods? Don't know much 'bout that. But when everything's on the line, it's quality that counts.
Tex Mechanica: we play by the old rules, the best rules. We play for keeps.
