Does anyone know how DMOZ orders their lists of companies? I've search around and can't find any information on it. My company is under the category "Thermoset Plastics" but we are all the way on the second page. How do we move higher up in the list? Or are we unable to change this

DMOZ does not list companies. We list websites.
Within a category the websites are ordered alphabetically on title.

but we are all the way on the second page
That is impossble. Within a category all listed websites are shown on 1 page.
Categories can have subcategories , websites listed in a subcategory are sorted as a seperate list.

If you have been looking at the results of a search than you will see multiple pages.
But DMOZ is a directory, not a search engine.
As a result the search is ony basic. It is not intended to find individual websites but to find categories.
How websites are ordered in search is a big mistery (even to us, the editors) and it can vary in time.

After a website is suggested it will be put in the pool of websites to be reviewed by editors.
Only after a website is reviewed and approved by an editor it will be visible by the public in the directory.
Time between suggestion and review can vary between a few days and several years.
