Defence Manufacturing

Mission-critical components manufactured in an EU and NATO member state, with full traceability and single-site chain of custody.

Origin and traceability

Supply-chain origin is now part of the specification.

Defence procurement has changed. Where a component is made, who owns the plant, and whether the chain of custody survives an audit are no longer administrative details — they are qualification criteria. A supplier who cannot evidence origin and traceability is a supplier who cannot be used, whatever the price or the tolerance.

What we deliver

EU and NATO-country manufacture, one facility, full traceability.

First In Service manufactures in Tallinn, Estonia — EU member state, NATO member, and 20 km from a deep-water port. Every component is traceable by heat number from material receipt to final inspection, and because fabrication, machining, surface treatment and assembly all happen inside one 18,000 m² building, the chain of custody never leaves our control or our documentation system.

Typical scope

Precision components: Machined to ±0.02 mm in steel, stainless, specialty alloys
Heavy structures: Welded assemblies to 35×7×7 m and 160 tonnes
Assemblies: Mechanical, hydraulic and electrical integration with FAT

Quality & traceability

Systems: ISO 9001, ISO 14001, EN 3834-2, EN 1090-2
Material: EN 10204 3.1 standard, 3.2 on request, heat-number tracked
