Aerospace and defense generates most sales, while medical, energy, transportation, and industrial customers rely on its qualification-intensive nickel-, cobalt-, titanium-, and iron-based materials.

Specialty Alloys Operations runs the core premium-alloy and stainless-steel manufacturing platform, while Performance Engineered Products includes Dynamet titanium, Carpenter Additive, and distribution businesses.
