Dunmore, a leading manufacturer of advanced materials for aerospace and space applications, is proud to announce that it has achieved AS9100 certification, the internationally recognised Quality Management System (QMS) standard for the aerospace, space, and defence industries.

Building on its ISO 9001-certified quality system, AS9100 certification reflects Dunmore's commitment to the rigorous quality, traceability, and risk management requirements demanded by mission-critical aerospace applications. The standard includes enhanced controls for product safety, supplier management, configuration control, and continuous improvement, providing customers with greater confidence in the reliability and consistency of Dunmore's materials.

This achievement builds on nearly four decades of proven flight heritage. Since the mid-1980s, Dunmore's thermal control materials, multi-layer insulation (MLI) films, and specialty tapes have supported some of the world's most ambitious space programmes, including the Space Shuttle, International Space Station, Hubble Space Telescope, James Webb Space Telescope, Cassini-Huygens, Juno, Voyager 2, New Horizons, and Mars Science Laboratory (Curiosity) missions. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has relied on Dunmore materials across numerous spacecraft, underscoring the company's longstanding reputation for manufacturing precision-engineered materials capable of performing in the harshest environments of space.

"Earning AS9100 certification represents a significant milestone for our organization and reinforces our dedication to delivering the highest-quality materials for aerospace and defense applications," said Ronn Cort, President of Dunmore. "Our customers depend on us for products that perform flawlessly in some of the world's most demanding environments, and this certification demonstrates our commitment to meeting those expectations."

For satellite manufacturers, system integrators, and aerospace OEMs, Dunmore's AS9100 certification provides additional assurance that its thermal control films, multi-layer insulation (MLI) materials, and engineered laminates are manufactured under a quality system designed to minimise risk, ensure full material traceability, and support mission success.

As the aerospace industry continues to push the boundaries of exploration and innovation, Dunmore remains committed to providing advanced material solutions that help protect critical systems, from Low Earth Orbit to deep-space missions.
