                       Friday, December 16, 2011

  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor a prestigious 
Bucks County based company, Ziamatic, for receiving the Governor's 
Award for Safety and Excellence. Ziamatic Corp. (ZICO) was founded in 
1958 with the intention of providing the men and women in the fire 
services industry with products that make their profession safer and 
easier. Over the years, Ziamatic has grown to become a leading 
manufacturer of fire and safety equipment in the United States. Today, 
the Yardley-based company employs 33 people.
  For almost half of the last century, ZICO has designed and developed 
dozens of new products ranging from breathing apparatus to ambulance 
equipment and ladder access systems. With each new design, one thing 
has always been consistent: quality. Before a product has the ZICO name 
attached to it, it must undergo rigorous testing to be sure that it 
meets the highest of standards.
  Thank you to Mike Ziayalek, and all of the employees at Ziamatic. 
Congratulations on receiving the Governor's Award for Safety and 
Excellence. We appreciate all that you do for the community and wish 
you many more years of success.
