PARAMUS, N.J. – September 10, 2026 – Curtiss-Wright today announced the expansion of its  Bangalore, India Shot Peening facility with the addition of advanced thermal spray services,  including plasma, HVOF and flame spray processes, materials testing and analysis, and  engineering support. The expansion will provide aerospace, defense, power generation,  automotive, and industrial customers in India access to Curtiss-Wright Surface Technologies’  extensive surface-engineering expertise.  

“Our further expansion into India represents an important step in strengthening our ability to  support customers in this rapidly growing region,” said Ray Lopuc, Senior Vice President and  Division Lead, Curtiss-Wright Surface Technologies. “We are bringing more than a century of  engineering experience and customer support, an extensive portfolio of industry and OEM  approvals, and a problem-solving approach that extends well beyond providing off-the-shelf  services.”  

The India facility is AS9100 Rev D certified for its thermal spray process, with a Nadcap thermal  spray accreditation audit scheduled for November 2026. The vast portfolio of specifications and  accreditations Curtiss-Wright Surface Technologies maintains allows the company to support  demanding applications while maintaining the quality, consistency, and technical rigor required  by leading OEMs and their supply chains. 

“Our customers often come to us with challenges that cannot be solved through a standard  coating or predetermined process,” Lopuc added. “We work collaboratively with their  engineering teams to understand the application, identify the root cause of the problem, and  develop a solution designed around the component’s specific performance requirements. We  are not simply a service provider; we are an engineering partner.”
