Partnerships

One partnership is on record.

• FiderisminorOthersFideris is a related entity headquartered at the same technology innovation campus in Vancouver, Washington as IND, Inc. Fideris manufactures rack-mounted physical process control hardware and software for monitoring processes such as pressure control, temperature, humidity, flow, and power solutions. The relationship appears to be co-location rather than formal partnership.

• Crest Ultrasonics: Crest Ultrasonics designs and services precision ultrasonic cleaning equipment and contract cleaning for industrial and high-tech parts; directly comparable to IND's critical cleaning and ultrasonic capabilities in semiconductor-adjacent industries.
• Tech-Etch: Tech-Etch manufactures precision photo-etched and fabricated metal components for medical, aerospace, and electronics OEMs; comparable to IND's precision fabrication and laser scribing service lines for high-tech component customers.
• Hohman Plating & Metal Finishing: Hohman Plating is a US specialty metal finisher offering electroless nickel, anodizing, and dry-film lubrication services to aerospace, defense, and high-tech customers—comparable to IND's plating and anodizing service lines with similar specialty-shop positioning.
• Best Technology Inc: Best Technology provides precision cleaning, passivation, and metal finishing services for medical, semiconductor, and analytical-instrument customers; a closely comparable specialty services shop with similar customer-segment focus to IND.
• Ultra Clean Holdings: UCT (NASDAQ: UCTT) provides ultra-pure parts cleaning, fab-based services, and gas delivery systems to semiconductor equipment manufacturers—closely matching IND's critical cleaning and engineered solutions model, but at materially larger scale and with a broader product portfolio.

Broad incumbents

• Entegris: Entegris (NASDAQ: ENTG) is a major semiconductor materials and equipment supplier whose parts-cleaning services (formerly QuantumClean) directly overlap with IND's core offering, but as one part of a much broader consumables and contamination-control portfolio serving the same customer base.
• Valence Surface Technologies: Valence is the largest US aerospace-focused metal finisher offering plating, anodizing, and surface treatments with multi-site capacity; relevant as a benchmark for what a scaled multi-site specialty finisher can offer versus IND's single-site model.
• Pioneer Metal Finishing: Pioneer Metal Finishing is one of the largest US metal finishers offering plating, anodizing, and surface treatments across aerospace, medical, and industrial customers; a broader incumbent with overlapping plating and anodizing capabilities versus IND's more semiconductor-focused mix.
• Praxair Surface Technologies: Praxair Surface Technologies (a Linde business) is a global leader in thermal spray coatings, overlays, and engineered surface solutions serving aerospace, semiconductor, and industrial markets; directly comparable to IND's thermal spray and YTTRIA coating services, with much broader scale.
