HTR operates a unique vendor matrix for all Aerospace and Defence customers. Vendors who are approved onto the matrix have been assessed and passed a suitability study to meet the industry requirements. TR's systems will not allow any parts to be ordered with vendors who are not on this matrix for supply into the Aerospace and Defence sector.
Getting high-volume, low-cost components from the supplier to the production line often involves significant administration. This can add considerably to the total in-place cost of the parts. Our logistical supply systems can practically eliminate these administration processes and reduce the customers overall costs.

From specialist materials like Super Duplex to A2-70 and A4-80 Stainless Steel, to your more standard Mild Steel, HT Steel in Grades 8.8, 10.9 and 12.9 alongside CAD plating and zinc & green (khaki) for camouflage.
