Aero TMF Expands Geographic Reach for Technical Metal Finishing
Aero TMF has been a staple of the California metal finishing industry since its founding in 1955. Our team is well-known for our specialty services, such as , anodizing, passivate, complex masking, non-destructive testing, and diverse painting capabilities.
Aero TMF’s precision and high standards make it the go-to shop in California for parts requiring military specs, NADCAP certification, or just an exceptional finish.
However, what many people don’t know is that we also provide top-tier technical metal finishing services for customers outside of California—including those across North America and in the United Kingdom.
We take special precautions to ensure parts arrive in the same condition they left our shop—no matter how far they travel. We use high industry standards to package our customers products, to ensure there are no issues during transport.
Aero TMF’s Strategies for Delivering Long-Distance Orders
We know it can feel risky to work with an out-of-state shop. No one wants their parts damaged or delayed in a cross-country (or ocean) delivery, and working with a local shop can feel like the safest bet.
But when your parts need technical metal finishing that outshines the competition, you shouldn’t have to settle for anything less than the best.
At Aero TMF, we adhere to top-of-the-line quality standards in our delivery process to keep your parts in perfect condition from departure to arrival.
Our meticulous packaging ensures quality
We go above and beyond standard packaging requirements to keep your parts safe. Most parts are wrapped in brown paper and bubble wrap to protect the finish during shipping.
After wrapping, we secure parts in boxes or crates. We use more bubble wrap to prevent parts from moving around during transit, even as the boxes move from truck to truck.
Before we ship the parts, we will send you a picture of the packaging for approval. Working with Aero TMF grants you peace of mind that your parts will arrive safely, even from across the country.
Our short lead times offset longer shipping times
Our efficient shop processes and experienced team allow us to keep lead times short. We consistently deliver parts nearly 50% faster than our competitors.
Recently, we completed an order from a prominent Virginia aerospace supplier that the customer estimated would take 20 days. We delivered the parts in seven days—three to finish the parts to our standards and four to ship the order back to Virginia.
Aero TMF can cut your lead times in half—even from thousands of miles away.
Our drop shipping services expedite the process
We offer drop shipping services on our customers’ behalf. This option is helpful when our shop is closer to your customer, or the order has a tight turnaround. Drop shipping limits the time parts spend in transit, reducing the risk of damage and taking a task off your plate.
We know it takes significant trust to let us sign off on your parts before your customers see them. Aero TMF’s reputation for high-quality technical metal finishing ensures customers feel comfortable giving us the final go-ahead.
