Bodycote, the world’s largest heat treating services provider, has announced that its Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) facility in Camas, Washington, USA, has earned the highest level of Nadcap accreditation following the most recent Nadcap audit.

As one of the original HIP facilities to achieve this standard, the site plans to maintain its extended Merit status. The emphasis and focus on quality build on a long history of supplying Hot Isostatic Pressing to the world’s aerospace prime manufacturers and their first tier suppliers.

Historically, the Camas site has played a strategic role in the aerospace supply chain and supporting new aerospace programs. In recent years, Bodycote has invested resources and capital to develop and expand operations to meet the demands required to support aerospace as well as energy and medical markets.
