The award highlights Hunting’s ability to deliver critical components into high-specification, zero-failure environments, leveraging decades of precision manufacturing expertise to meet the demands of the world’s most advanced industrial applications. Supported by US-based, AS9100-certified facilities, Hunting meets the technical, quality and compliance requirements of top-tier aerospace programmes. These multiyear opportunities are secured only after rigorous qualification processes and sustained operational performance, reinforcing Hunting’s competitive position and supporting expansion into non-energy industrial markets under Hunting’s 2030 strategy framework, broadening market reach and strengthening long-term revenue stability.

Scott George, Managing Director – North America, commented: “The Pratt & Whitney contract reinforces Hunting’s position in the global aerospace supply chain and reflects the trust placed in our ability to deliver mission-critical, precision-engineered components to the most exacting standards. It builds on our momentum in diversifying revenue beyond oil and gas, strengthening our position in highly regulated, technical industries where quality, reliability, and performance are non-negotiable. With firm revenue visibility through 2026, this contract is a clear step forward in delivering our 2030 strategy—advancing a balanced, multisector portfolio designed to enhance resilience, drive margin growth, and create enduring value well beyond the traditional energy cycle.”
