Arlington Capital Partners a Washington, D.C.-area private investment firm specializing in government regulated industries, today announced the launch of Verus Aerospace (“Verus” or the “Company”), a newly formed brand emerging as one of the industry’s largest pure play structures platforms focused on next-generation programs for the aerospace, defense and space industries. Verus is comprised of existing Arlington-backed companies Perfekta, Precision Machine Works, Arden Engineering, Premier Processing and Quality Forming.

Headquartered in Anaheim, CA and with over 500,000 square feet of manufacturing space, Verus offers machining platforms reaching from 120” to 720” and specializes in the manufacturing of long and large, highly complex components and assemblies with hard-to-machine materials and geometries for mission-critical applications. The Company’s core competencies include high-speed machining, hard metal manufacturing, large monolithic structures, deep pocket machining and special processing including metal finishing coatings, non-destructive testing, priming and painting. Verus Aerospace operates three integrated centers of excellence in California, Kansas and Washington, strategically located near major customers, which provides the ability to collaborate closely with customers from project inception.

The creation of Verus as a standalone platform investment within Arlington’s portfolio will enable the Company to focus exclusively on aerostructures and redefine the standards of excellence and innovation in the field across commercial, defense and space applications. As the aerospace, defense and space landscapes evolve, Verus will emerge as a dynamic player, ready to shape the future of aerostructures with unwavering dedication and expertise.

Peter Manos, a Managing Partner at Arlington Capital Partners, said, “We are excited about the launch of Verus Aerospace, signifying an initiative to fortify our focus and position in the aerospace and defense industry. We have created one of the largest pure-play manufacturers of ultra complex and large aerostructure components in the industry. Our commitment to a long-term investment strategy, through both organic investments and acquisitions, enables Verus to better serve its customers with broad capabilities as a scaled and well-capitalized player in the aerostructures market.”

Brian Bentley, CEO of Verus added, “Verus Aerospace is uniquely positioned as one of the few remaining private aerostructure businesses of scale. Our engineering prowess, vertical integration and state-of-the-art capabilities enable us to provide significant cost advantages and support our customers throughout the product lifecycle.”
