PITTSBURGH – The Pittsburgh Business Times recently named Industrial Scientific Corporation one of the region’s 50 largest privately held companies in its Book of Lists. Published annually, the list was compiled based on 2004 revenue, which showed a seven percent increase for the gas detection equipment manufacturer over the prior year.

That mindset is evident in everything that we do. From research and development to manufacturing and final testing, we never lose sight of the fact that our customers are counting on us to protect their lives,” he added.
