Extraordinary People During AnythingBut-Ordinary Times

“It takes a significant effort to stay positive through some difficult circumstances. I feel blessed that we have such a great team who are really doing an amazing job during this time of crisis including our fantastic workforce that has the fortitude to weather difficult storms.” – Chris Pruitt, East Penn CEO/President

East Penn has a long history of overcoming challenges. Through those challenges one thing has remained clear; the people of East Penn are and will continue to be amazing. Without the steadfast commitment, tremendous work ethic, and the heart of East Penn’s employees, we would not be where we are today. That is especially true during these unprecedented and unpredictable times.

We want to say a profound thank-you to our entire East Penn family. With every twist and turn COVID-19 has brought, we could not be more grateful for each and every employee. It has truly been a team effort to not only keep production flowing for our very essential products, but also to fight the spread of COVID-19. We have felt the unity, fortitude, and grace of our East Penn family as we have all adjusted, and readjusted, to these ever changing times. In order to help keep employees safe and stop the spread of COVID-19, East Penn has implemented additional safety practices throughout the entire organization. These safety measures include: ways of keeping safe spaces, disinfection for protection, handwashing stations, providing masks, temperature screening, new outdoor break areas, and special strategic teams ready to respond when necessary.

We are proud to have also seen employees function as their own virus fighting force by implementing safety practices like quarantining when sick, using the right mask for the right occasion, and continuing to diligently practice social distancing. It is not easy to adjust to this new normal, and we are thankful to East Penn employees for their dedication to keeping themselves and their peers safe and healthy.

Thanks to the efforts and support of everyone in our workforce, we have been able to join the fight against the spread of COVID-19 in a tangible, meaningful way. Our products support many operations and infrastructure critical to our Nation, such as transportation for all vehicles including emergency and delivery vehicles, communications, disaster recovery, medical equipment, home mobility, cellular and data networks, food industries and other vital supply chain support, energy reliability and cyber security – all crucial during the battle against COVID-19. As our Nation continues to move forward the best way we can, East Penn will be there every step of the way. And you can be, too.
