What Med Tex Services does

Med-Tex Services, Inc. is a privately held, Philadelphia-based safety services company founded in 1985 that provides Safety, Health and Rescue Services to contractors and industrial operators across the Mid-Atlantic United States. The company's core offerings span six integrated service lines: rescue teams and rope access support (confined space, high-angle, water, trench, available 24/7), OSHA-authorized safety training, safety equipment sales/rental (authorized MSA distributor and repair center), safety consulting (industrial hygiene, gap analysis, citation support), health services (substance abuse screening, fit testing, blood serum analysis), and fall protection solutions (assessment, design, installation). Delivery channels include the State Road Training Facility in Philadelphia, a Delaware operations site, and mobile testing vehicles that bring fit testing, pulmonary function testing, and drug screening directly to client job sites.

The underlying technology stack is service- and equipment-based rather than software-based: mobile testing RV units, confined space training simulators, fire extinguisher training systems, supplied air systems, atmospheric monitors, and PPE inventory. Revenue is generated through per-course training fees, equipment sales and rentals, project-based rescue staffing contracts, and ongoing consulting engagements. Pricing is quote-based for services and equipment, with publicly disclosed pricing only for training courses such as the $125 ROPE Conference 2025 ticket. The company serves eight primary verticals — Oil & Gas/Petrochemical, Power Generation, Commercial and Industrial Construction, Life Sciences/Pharmaceutical, Manufacturing, Healthcare, Government/Municipalities, and Rail — with named enterprise customers including Skanska USA, L.F. Driscoll Co., Exelon (Conowingo Dam and Peach Bottom), Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, and Sunoco Logistics. Distribution is direct through field-based account management, complemented by a ClickSafety partnership for online course delivery and affiliations with 24+ industry associations for lead generation.

Core offering

Med Tex Services provides Safety, Health and Rescue Services to contractors and facilities, deploying trained personnel to manage on-site safety programs, deliver health and rescue coverage, and support compliance on construction and industrial sites. The firm operates out of Philadelphia, PA, and focuses on field-based safety staffing rather than software or product sales.

Med Tex Services provides a comprehensive portfolio of safety, health, and rescue services as a unified service offering rather than a software platform. The core services include Rescue Teams & Support (confined space, high-angle, water, trench, and rope access rescue available 24/7), Safety Training (OSHA-authorized courses including PSM, confined space, fall protection, HAZWOPER, and more), Safety Equipment (PPE sale/rental with MSA authorized distribution), Safety Consulting (gap analysis, citations, program development), Health Services (substance abuse screening, respiratory compliance, blood analysis), and Fall Protection Solutions (assessments, installations, equipment).

Broad incumbents

• Total Safety: National industrial safety services provider offering supplied-air, gas detection, fit testing, rescue standby, and training to refineries and utilities — the same bundle Med-Tex delivers, but at far larger scale.
• Concentra: Large occupational health provider offering physicals, drug screening, and respiratory clearance/fit testing, overlapping with Med-Tex's mobile health services line for industrial employers.

Direct peers

• Code Red Safety & Rescue: Provides confined-space rescue teams, safety equipment rental, gas detection, and OSHA training to industrial and construction clients, closely mirroring Med-Tex's core rescue-plus-equipment-plus-training model.
• Roco Rescue: Specializes in confined-space and rope-access rescue training and standby rescue teams for industrial sites, directly overlapping Med-Tex's technical rescue and training offerings.
• United Safety: Industrial safety services firm providing gas detection, confined-space entry support, breathing air, and on-site safety personnel for turnarounds and outages, comparable to Med-Tex's petrochemical and power-gen support.

Others

• Mallory Safety and Supply: Distributor of PPE, gas detection, and fall-protection equipment with rental and service programs, comparable to Med-Tex's equipment sales/rental/repair channel though without the rescue-staffing component.
• DISA Global Solutions: Provider of drug/alcohol screening and contractor compliance management; a Med-Tex partner whose substance-abuse screening and TPA services overlap with Med-Tex's health-services line.
• ClickSafety: Online OSHA and safety training platform and a Med-Tex partner; overlaps on the training revenue stream while differing in delivery model (digital vs. hands-on).
• National Safety Council: Membership and training organization offering safety education and OSHA-aligned programs, adjacent to Med-Tex's training and consulting offerings though non-commercial in nature.

Regional players

• Levitt-Safety: Canadian provider of safety equipment, training, fire/rescue services, and fit testing — a near-mirror of Med-Tex's integrated model but serving a different geography.
