Fletcher said trends in the medical market have an outsized impact on West Penn due to its established presence as an independent laboratory.

DeChellis said, "We provide solutions and services effectively by having trained personnel and testing capacity in place before they are needed. When you have long-term relationships with raw material suppliers and the major manufacturers, you can sustain the level of business needed to support a deep bench and high expertise," DeChellis added that West Penn celebrates its 60th year in business in 2012.
"Because we are a leading supplier of ultrasonic inspection services, with capabilities using a variety of testing technologies, there has been no time in our history when customers did not have us working to solve problems," said DeChellis. "If they all knock on the door at once, whether they are coming from the medical, aerospace, energy or one of a dozen other market sectors, we need to be able to accommodate demand and live up to expectations."
