Heritage announced its 60th anniversary as North America’s oldest and longest-standing military coater. Founded in 1965, the company was one of the first in the United States to apply Chemical Agent Resistant Coating (CARC) and continues to serve major OEMs such as AM General, Oshkosh Defense, BAE Systems and General Dynamics.
For more than six decades, Heritage has provided mil-spec coatings and pretreatment solutions, including support for NASA aerospace projects. Since acquiring the business in 2007, owner Nick Pamboukis has expanded the company to two facilities offering sandblasting and powder coating services.
Looking ahead, the company projects $5 million in new business sales over the next three years and is investing in automation and equipment upgrades to support sectors such as autonomous technology.
“We are deeply grateful for the trust of our customers and OEM partners over the past 60 years,” said Pamboukis. “As we celebrate this milestone, we’re committed to driving innovation and delivering exceptional solutions for defense, aerospace and beyond.”
