Posted: Oct 10, 2013
1888PressRelease - The EPA along with the National Lung Association and Center for Disease Control have recognized radon gas as the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. Radon is the number one cause of lung cancer in non-smokers.
Pittsburgh, PA - For the second year in a row SWAT Environmental has been named one of the top 5,000 fastest growing companies in the United States by Inc Magazine. Being acknowledged by Inc Magazine just one time was a feat. SWAT Environmental is the only radon mitigation company to ever make the prestigious Inc Magazine list and now they are the only radon mitigation company to make the list twice. Inc Magazine is known worldwide for featuring the best companies in all fields, whether they are established leaders or are just getting started in their industry. Growth of SWAT environmental is expected to continue well into the future thanks to the recognition from Inc Magazine as well as the increased awareness of radon hazards.
Christopher Coffey started SWAT Environmental in 1988 and was one of the first participants in the EPA's Radon Contractor Proficiency Program. SWAT Environmental was officially founded in 2002 when the owners realized the huge demand for radon mitigation. Inc Magazine has praised the business model as well as effective and non-invasive technology that SWAT Environmental has utilized and perfected over the last decade.
For Inc Magazine to take note of SWAT Environmental for two consecutive years is an honor and testament to the high quality customer service and radon gas solutions consistently provided by the Michigan company. SWAT Environmental installed 10,000 radon detection and remediation systems in 2011 alone according to Inc Magazine. The continued presence of SWAT Environmental on the Inc Magazine List of Fastest Growing U.S. Companies indicates that SWAT Environmental is still working on rapidly expanding their business. Radon mitigation services are important for the environment and health of people in the community, so expansion by SWAT Environmental can prove beneficial to more and more people.
The growth by SWAT Environmental indicated in Inc Magazine also shows that they are doing their job right. SWAT Environmental provides both commercial and residential radon mitigation as well as detection services. They are the nation's largest provider of their niche service with locations in many states and hopes of continuing to grow nationally and internationally. SWAT Environmental is privately-owned company that started small in Michigan, but there has been a great deal of interest in their franchise model since they were first recognized by Inc Magazine.
In 2012, Inc Magazine ranked them thirteenth in the Environmental Services category and this year they ranked seventeenth in the same category of Inc Magazine. Overall, SWAT Environmental was 1,841st on the Inc Magazine list of US companies. The three-year growth of SWAT Environmental has been an impressive 208 percent, according to Inc Magazine. Growth during the last ten years is even more astounding, showing a rate of over 3,000 percent. Revenue in 2009 was $4.2 million, which increased to $13 million in 2012, surpassing their projected $12 million. Inc Magazine also listed SWAT Environmental as number thirty-eight in the Top 100 Michigan Companies and they are a good candidate for the Inc Magazine list next year as well.
