Corporate History

Plasma Technology Incorporated (PTI) was founded in 1969 as a supplier of plasma applied coatings.

The starting niche strategy was aimed at original equipment manufacturers of Aircraft Engines and Airframes.  That strategy was successful as the aircraft markets were experiencing rapid growth and coatings were in great demand.  PTI initially offered less than ten types of coatings.

The non-aircraft segments of the market began to mature in the late nineteen seventies and early eighties and now represents about sixty percent of the total market.  PTI has been a leader in expanding the use of the technology to other market segments.

The company now offers over three hundred coatings, applied by eight different techniques.

Corporate headquarters, and the main coating facility, are located in 40,000 square feet in Torrance, CA.  This facility also contains a large and well equipped machine shop and grinding capability supporting both plant sites.

A second plant is located at South Windsor, CT and contains about 21,000 square feet.  This is a multiple shift production coating facility supporting General Electric, Pratt & Whitney Aircraft, and other major accounts.

The company has prospered in a highly competitive industry by becoming a technology and quality leader and expanding the base for use of other products.  PTI is a market focused and directed Surface Engineering Company operating at all levels to provide high value added services to a very diverse customer base.

PTI has been certified, qualified, and approved by many corporations.  You can see an abridged list of some of our certifications.
