In a sector where each link in the supply chain is critical, being approved by a major OEM like Leonardo Helicopters means more than just recognition — it’s a guarantee of trust, compliance, and operational performance.

Meeting the key challenges faced by aerospace and defense contractors

Supply chain security

With increasing pressure on supply chain resilience and frequent delivery challenges, working with an approved distributor like Aerometals & Alloys ensures reliable, traceable, and fully compliant sourcing. Aerometals & alloys maintains accessible inventory of titanium and stainless steel in various forms (bars, plates, sheets, tubes, powders), significantly reducing the risk of supply disruptions or non-compliance.

Reduced risk of non-quality and non-compliance

The aerospace industry operates under stringent standards. Aerometals & alloys’s approval by Leonardo Helicopters confirms its proven ability to meet quality, traceability, and certification requirements — helping clients minimize delays, avoid rework, and control costs related to non-compliance.

Faster qualification and approval processes

Aerometals & alloys acts as a pre-approved supply chain link, helping customers accelerate their own qualification or approval processes with Leonardo or other major OEMs. Relying on an already validated partner can streamline onboarding and reduce administrative complexity.

Driving competitiveness and innovation

Cost pressures, lightweight material needs, and production efficiency are major challenges. As an approved distributor, Aerometals & alloys supports innovation through its custom cutting services (near net shape) and ensures availability of critical materials, helping clients stay ahead in their development cycles.

Commercial reassurance and reputation

In competitive tenders, partnering with a supplier approved by Leonardo Helicopters adds a strong layer of reassurance and credibility. It strengthens your positioning and demonstrates a commitment to quality and reliability to your customers and partners.
