Aerospace composites specialist Velocity Composites (Burnley, U.K.) has passed the global industry accreditation at its U.S. site for those suppliers serving the industry and related sectors.

Nadcap accreditation — the globally recognized National Aerospace and Defense Contractors’ Accreditation Program — is an endorsement that Velocity’s robust processes and high product integrity meet or exceed the highest standards in the aerospace industry.

The accreditation for the company’s Tallahassee site in Alabama is a milestone for the facility, gaining approval within the first 12 months of first composites kit production.

The successful inspection also strengthens Velocity Composites’ audit history across its sites in Burnley, Lancashire and Fareham, Hampshire earned over the last 5 years.

,“It is pleasing for the Velocity team and reassuring for our customers that our processes have been externally verified to be robust across all of our sites,” says Matthew Archer, commercial and supply chain director at Velocity Composites. “We pride ourselves on delivering the highest quality products to the aerospace supply chain, and customers and manufacturers can be confident that our standards meet the strictest criteria.”

Administered by the Performance Review Institute, Nadcap audits aim to guarantee that suppliers to major aerospace Primes continue to meet the highest quality of compliance to customer requirements and industry standards.
