For the 4th Time, First Line Technology Appears on the Inc. 5000, Ranking No. 4256 With Three-Year Revenue Growth of 72 Percent

CHANTILLY, Va. (PRWEB) August 22, 2019

Inc. magazine today revealed that First Line Technology (FLT) is No. 4256 on its annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy's most dynamic segment--its independent small businesses. Microsoft, Dell, Domino's Pizza, Pandora, Timberland, LinkedIn, Yelp, Zillow, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

"We're very proud that First Line Technology has been able to achieve a growth rate of 72% over three years in its sixteenth year in business. Our continuing high growth rates can be attributed to our success in taking innovative discoveries from the lab and developing them into life-saving solutions for responders and the military." Amit Kapoor, President and CEO, First Line Technology

Not only have the companies on the 2019 Inc. 5000 (which are listed online at Inc.com, with the top 500 companies featured in the September issue of Inc., available on newsstands August 20) been very competitive within their markets, but the list as a whole shows staggering growth compared with prior lists. The 2019 Inc. 5000 achieved an astounding three-year average growth of 454 percent, and a median rate of 157 percent. The Inc. 5000's aggregate revenue was $237.7 billion in 2018, accounting for 1,216,308 jobs over the past three years.

Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at http://www.inc.com/inc5000.

"The companies on this year's Inc. 5000 have followed so many different paths to success," says Inc. editor in chief James Ledbetter. "There's no single course you can follow or investment you can take that will guarantee this kind of spectacular growth. But what they have in common is persistence and seizing opportunities."

The annual Inc. 5000 event honoring the companies on the list will be held October 10 to 12, 2019, at the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort and Spa in Phoenix, Arizona. As always, speakers include some of the greatest innovators and business leaders of our generation.

About First Line Technology
First Line Technology has developed a wide range of world-class solutions for first responders and the military. FLT has pioneered an entirely new approach to the decontamination of fentanyl, synthetic opioids, and hundreds of other known and emerging threats. Their Hybrid Decontamination process utilizes FiberTect, a three-part, activated carbon wipe to remove up to 95% of the bulk contaminant. The remaining contaminant is then sprayed with Dahlgren Decon, a peracetic acid -based solution that chemically neutralizes the threat.

FLT developed the AmbuBus Conversion Kit that is used to convert any school or transit bus into a multi-patient transport vehicle in less than two hours with no power tools. There are over 550 AmbuBuses on the road that are used for mass casualty events, hospital and nursing home evacuations, responder rehab, victim sleeping quarters, and hospital surge situations.

With the rise of global temperatures, heat stress is becoming a serious problem. First Line Technology offers both PhaseCore professional grade cooling vests and the Immersion Cooling Equipment (ICE) System, a team-sized arm immersion cooling solution.
