VALENCE SURFACE TECHNOLOGIES

Valence Surface Technologies is a full-service surface finishing company specializing in the commercial aerospace, defense, space and satellite industries. With eight strategically located sites across the United States, Valence provides a start to finish solution from NDT and chemical processing, to paint and sub-assembly.

Traditionally, the aerospace supply chain has been a fragmented system comprised of many different suppliers completing a different step of the chain. One company may be responsible for the initial inspection and shot peening, and then another anodizes, while another has responsibility for the paint, and so on and so forth. These processes may take place spread across the country, at great cost due to unnecessary lead time, inventory, risk, and management resources.

Valence exists to change the supply chain. By providing an all-inclusive solution in every region of the country, we reduce cost, the amount of suppliers, the distance parts must travel, lead times, while maintaining the capacity to grow with new programs. We do this by maintaining over 3,500 approvals, for every prime and program in existence today.
