CANTON -- Atlantic Testing Laboratories, Limited (ATL) celebrates its 50th anniversary this year.

ATL was founded in 1967 by Spencer F. Thew in Canton, which is the corporate headquarters today.

“I am proud of the ATL staff, and the direction ATL’s growth has taken. I am honored to witness the 50th anniversary of ATL and wish its current leadership continued success,” Thew said in a news release.

We continue to seek out additional services that will add value for our clients.

ATL, a WBE-certified company, employs over 250 staff members.

“I am very proud of our staff and of their level of commitment to ATL and our clients. We owe our success and longevity to our hard-working and dedicated employees and our loyal clients. This year, we will be reflecting on our past, celebrating our achievements, and making plans for the future,” CEOMarijean B. Remington said in the release.
