Airtech International Inc.

Airtech International Inc., a veteran-owned manufacturer based in Huntington Beach, California, supplies adhesives, plastic sheets, composite breather materials, vacuum bagging supplies, and specialized hardware components to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor on a high-volume, transactional purchase-order footprint that spans the Defense Logistics Agency, the Navy, the Air Force, and the Army. The company competes on a full-and-open basis across its prime awards; the modest set-aside penetration (some total-small-business purchase orders alongside unrestricted awards) reflects the commodities nature of its work rather than a deliberate set-aside strategy.

Airtech's customer concentration is heavily skewed toward Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment, which accounts for 395 awards and $3.5 million in combined potential value — representing 54% of award count and dominating the dollar ranking as well. DLA Land and Maritime ranks second by potential value at $531 thousand across 16 awards, followed by the Army Materiel Command TACOM Life Cycle Management Command ($341 thousand), the Army's Contracting Command Redstone Arsenal ($219 thousand), and DLA Troop Support Hardware ($176 thousand). Across all 46 customer agencies, the top five account for 80% of combined potential value. The award pattern reflects a vendor locked into a narrow customer ecosystem within the defense supply chain, with little to no civilian federal exposure.

Airtech's capabilityadded includes manufacturing plastic sheets for aerospace and composites applications (176 NAICS awards for unlaminated plastics film and sheet, 114 for plastics material and resin manufacturing), adhesive and sealant compounds (669 NAICS awards for adhesive manufacturing), and composite breather and release film products (122 PSC awards for preservative and sealing compounds). Representative recent prime work includes a $35 thousand total-small-business purchase order from DLA Construction and Equipment for plastic sheet materials (October 2025), a $124 thousand total-small-business purchase order from Naval Sea Systems Command for design and manufacture of a ship model hull using large-scale additive manufacturing (June 2025), and a $157 thousand total-small-business purchase order from the Naval Sea Systems Command for ship hull model and cradle (July 2022). The company also holds two single-award indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime, each with a $250 thousand ceiling and set aside for small businesses, focused on straight adapter hardware items; one contract runs through August 2022 and issued two delivery orders totaling roughly $4.8 thousand as of May 2022.

Activity volume has declined from 23 awards in 2022 to 14 awards in 2026 year-to-date, signaling a downward trajectory. The combined potential value across the entire footprint stands at $6 million against obligated dollars of $6.6 million, indicating that work is flowing through steadily but at modest scale. Recompete and contract-completion exposure concentrated in the near term — awards completing across the footprint suggest ongoing pressure on the core DLA supply contracts that anchor Airtech's revenue.

Airtech subcontracts to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation on plastics material manufacturing and resin manufacturing work under the NRP Control Panel C program (three awards May 2026) and to Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc. on a DDG(X) test platform sub task (June 2024). The sub footprint is minimal; Airtech operates overwhelmingly as a prime.

Airtech's vehicles of record are five General Services Administration Blanket Purchase Agreements (GSA Schedule 84 BPAs): GS06F9AIRS (47 task orders), GS06F9AIRN (27 task orders), GS06F9ARRT (18 task orders, $4 thousand combined potential value), GS06F9AAII (15 task orders, $3 thousand combined potential value), and GS06F9ARTC (5 task orders, $908 combined potential value). These BPAs anchor Airtech's indirect access to civilian and defense federal procurement; the task-order patterns show routine, small-value sourcing of consumable materials and fabricated components across multiple agencies.
