Air Comm Earns Top Honor for Safe Operations
Air Comm Corp. was recently honored to receive the Circle of Safety Award from Pinnacol Assurance, company President Keith Steiner said. Pinnacol is a workers' compensation insurer in Colorado.
"Safety is paramount in aviation and it's the No. 1 priority for Air Comm and our employees," Steiner said. "This award reflects the team's commitment to safe operations."
The Award recognizes companies that have demonstrated exceptional performance in four areas of risk management: safety, claims management, loss control and financial management.
Air Comm maintained its safe work environment during an exceptionally busy year that included completion of a 12,000 square foot facility renovation, a modernized production area, and significant new office space.
Air Comm also certified a new heating and air conditioning system for the Bell 429 helicopter and provided ongoing support of the UH-72 Lakota, including delivery of more than 40 air conditioning systems to date.
"2009 was a great year, and the safety award is one important element of our overall success," said Steiner.
Air Comm has designed and manufactured superior vapor cycle air conditioners and bleed air heaters for turbine aircraft since 1987. The company offers certified climate control systems for more than 20 civil and military helicopters.
