Founded by Joe Forney in 1916, Forney is a construction materials testing manufacturer and innovator based in Zelienople, Pennsylvania. Joe's son, Russ, invented the concrete compression machine in the 1950s. His smaller, easy-to-use compression technology caught on with testing labs that couldn't afford huge testing machines the only option at the time and quickly became the worldwide industry standard. It was Russ's spirit of entrepreneurship, generous soul and unique product offering that allowed many of his customers to open their own labs. From there, Forney grew exponentially: Today, we continue to innovate and offer thousands of scientific testing, measuring and processing instruments for the concrete, soils and asphalt industries worldwide. You can find Forney in small test labs, universities, pre-casters, construction companies, government agencies and more. The latest innovation? ForneyVault: a cloud-based construction materials testing platform that closes the loop between sample creation, testing and the collection, dissemination and use of data. With ForneyVault, data flows seamlessly throughout the entire testing process, reducing the risk of errors, increasing compliance and driving more positive outcomes for labs and other stakeholders in the process.
