Founded by Materials Engineers
APS Materials was established in 1975 by a team of materials engineers, and remains family-owned and rooted in research and development. That expertise is still the foundation of how we approach every coating problem.
In-House Metallurgical Laboratory
Our A2LA-accredited lab evaluates coating microstructure, thickness, porosity, and bond integrity in-house. Led by a GE-certified team, it ties coating characteristics directly to process parameters.
Integrated Capabilities Under One Roof
Precision machining, additive manufacturing, molding, and metallurgical analysis sit alongside thermal spray, enabling rapid iteration and greater control through process qualification and production.
Qualified for Regulated Industries
NADCAP accredited, certified to ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016, with a laboratory accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017. These are the approvals aerospace, medical device, and semiconductor programs require.
