Aerospace & defense Hi Tech Plating is already serving Aerospace and Military sectors and holds RoHS, ISO/AS, and NADCAP certifications with recognized OEM approvals. This suggests potential for expanding into related high-reliability industries such as defense contractors, space, and aviation suppliers that require stringent plating standards.

OEM validation With approvals from Raytheon and Lockheed Martin and demonstrated high-quality plating and tinning processes, there is an opportunity to leverage these certifications to win additional prime contracts or Tier-1 supplier relationships within aerospace, defense, and medical device manufacturers seeking trusted plating partners.

Tinning capabilities The sister company’s hot tin dipping and hot solder dipping offerings position Hi Tech Plating and The Tinning Company to cross-sell to electronics manufacturers, contract electronics manufacturers, and connected device makers that require RoHS-compliant finishes and reliable tin/lead processes.

Global event exposure Past participation in Farnborough International Airshow indicates appetite for industry visibility and partnerships with aerospace supply chains. A targeted outreach strategy to aerospace primes and integrators attending similar events could accelerate new business development.

Growth opportunities With revenue in the lower mid-market range and a specialized capability set, there is potential to scale by targeting mid-size OEMs and suppliers in aerospace, automotive, military, and medical device industries that require compliant, high-quality plating, while leveraging cloud-enabled operations and modern tech stack for efficiency gains.
