Plattsburgh, New York / Oslo, Norway - 29 May 2026 - Norsk Titanium, a global
leader in structural titanium additive manufacturing, today announced that its
Plattsburgh, New York operations have earned accreditation from the National
Aerospace and Defense Contractors Accreditation Program (Nadcap) for additive
manufacturing. Nadcap is the industry's benchmark for special-process
accreditation and allows OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers to fast-track supplier
audits, shortening the timeline to production for structural titanium parts
built on Norsk Titanium's Rapid Plasma Deposition® (RPD®) technology.
Aerospace OEMs and defense prime contractors rely on Nadcap to pre-validate
process control, repeatability, and traceability- the same audit they would
otherwise have to perform to clear a new supplier for production. With Nadcap in
hand, Norsk Titanium can compress that pre-production audit cycle and move
customer programs from contract to delivery faster.
"Nadcap is the industry's stamp of approval on the discipline behind our
industrial platform - and it cuts significant time out of our customers'
supplier qualification process," said Khazeem Adesokan, Vice President
Operations and Quality of Norsk Titanium. "Aerospace and defense programs want
secure, scalable sources of advanced manufacturing, and they want suppliers
qualified yesterday. Nadcap accreditation takes weeks - sometimes months - out
of that path."
Norsk Titanium's proprietary RPD® process builds near-net-shape titanium parts
with less waste, shorter lead times, and a more flexible supply chain than
conventional forging and machining - advantages that matter most to aerospace
and defense programs squeezed by titanium shortages and tight production
schedules. The Nadcap accreditation covers additive manufacturing across both of
Norsk Titanium's Plattsburgh, New York facilities, one of which is also
ITAR-compliant for controlled defense work.
