As long-time members of the Metal Treating Institute (MTI), Solar Atmospheres employees are actively involved with the Institute. At the recent 2021 Fall meeting held in San Antonio TX, MTI recognized Ed Engelhard, Vice President Corporate Quality, with the MTI Award of Industry Merit. This award is given in recognition of current/ongoing commitment to the betterment of the commercial heat treating industry with one or more significant accomplishments.

Ed currently co-chairs the Technical Standards Committee for the MTI. Additionally, Ed is extremely active with PRI, SAE and at ASTM. Bob Hill President of Solar Atmospheres of Western PA states, “Being a previous business owner coupled with 40 years of metallurgical processing knowledge, Ed knows what it takes to get the job done and to get it finished right the first time. He has the unique ability to separate the utopian desires of auditing agencies versus what is practical on the shop floors because he has been there. We are extremely proud that the MTI honored Ed for openly sharing his knowledge to our heat treating industry.”
