TPC Components

What TPC Components does

TPC Components AB is a Swedish precision casting specialist founded in 1948 and headquartered in Hallstahammar, Sweden. The company produces high-performance cast components for the aerospace (primary), energy, and industrial sectors, leveraging proprietary precision casting technology — including equiax casting techniques — to deliver components that meet the demanding metallurgical and dimensional tolerances of advanced engine programs.

Following its acquisition by GKN Aerospace — itself a subsidiary of UK-listed Melrose PLC — TPC now operates as a business unit within one of the world's largest tier-one aerospace suppliers. The integration combines TPC's precision casting expertise with GKN Aerospace's broader portfolio, providing access to advanced R&D capabilities, a global network of engineering excellence, and state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities across the US, UK, and Europe. Through GKN Aerospace's material solutions offering, TPC's output feeds civil engines, defence engines, space launcher engines, and industrial gas turbine programs.

TPC's business model is B2B precision casting services sold into upstream aerospace and industrial OEMs, distributed via GKN Aerospace's global supply chain. Pricing, contract structures, and revenue mechanics are not publicly disclosed, consistent with its position as a private operating unit within a much larger parent organization. The company employs 11-50 people and has not disclosed independent financials.
