Rick Richardson, former CEO and founder of Sky Cylinder Testing, said: “I’m confident our customers will benefit from All Safe Global’s expansion into the eastern U.S. with continued expert service and now the addition of product sales.”

Scott Elliott, formerly with Sky Cylinder Testing and now Vice President and General Manager of ASG’s eastern operations said: “We are excited about combining our expertise in cylinder requalification with ASG’s extensive line of products and services. And, we look forward to being part of a growing company that furthers our appeal with national customers.”

Beyond expanding ASG’s geographic footprint, this acquisition provides additional scale and purchasing power to the company’s growing business. The combination will enhance ASG’s ability to provide new and current customers with exceptional service, quality products, and fast turn-around times.

ASG offers expansive truck routes and competitive shipping services to make delivery fast and affordable for customers in all geographical locations. The combined company’s trucking fleet makes regularly scheduled routes for pickup and delivery allowing customers to reduce costs while focusing on their core gas business. ASG’s truck routes, services, and new product distribution capabilities will extend to the East Coast with reduced logistics costs.

Minnesota-based All Safe Global, a nationally recognized DOT-authorized recertification facility, is proud to announce the addition of ultrasonic examination (UE) to its advanced cylinder testing capabilities.

The company’s new ultrasonic examination machine provides enhanced high-pressure cylinder testing using ultrasound technology, with numerous benefits for specialty gas cylinder certification. UE testing is done with the valve in place, preserving residual high-value gases and keeping the cylinder interior free from contamination and moisture throughout the process. This new capability is in addition to our continued hydrostatic test recertification services.

“Customer service and continuous improvement are two of our core principles. UE takes both to the next level” said All Safe Global President and CEO Matt Boettner. “This state-of-the-art testing is a tremendous resource for our customers, particularly those in ultra-high purity, laser, precision welding, and other specialty gas applications.”

Jerry Bru, All Safe Global Sales Manager, adds that “ultrasonic examination is a fantastic addition to the company’s full-service capabilities. We pride ourselves on providing exceptional-quality cylinders to a complete spectrum of industries, and the addition of UE certainly enhances our ability to sell and support with precision.”

Digital Wave Corporation specializes in nondestructive testing techniques in the metallic and composite high-pressure Digital Wave Corporation vessel industries. “Customers are becoming more educated and demanding. They are calling out UE testing as the preferred test mode for their cylinders. We are excited to expand UE services to customers in the Midwest via our new partnership with All Safe Global” said Digital Wave Corporation Sales and Marketing Director Mark Anderson.

All Safe Global welcomes communication with wholesalers, retailers, vendors, and end-use industry professionals.
