NCT Technologies

What NCT Technologies does

NCT Technologies Group, Inc. is a privately held, full-service custom metal fabricator founded in 1985 (originally as New Carlisle Tool & Stamping) and owned since 2003 by President Drew Flora. The company operates 8 manufacturing facilities across Ohio and Indiana totaling 230,000+ sq ft, employing 150+ people and running 100+ machines. It fabricates more than 750,000 lbs of metal per month across industrial and retail customers.

The company's core offering spans the entire metal fabrication value chain: in-house design and engineering using SolidWorks, MasterCam, and CAD; laser and water jet cutting (including 6000W fiber lasers and 60,000 PSI waterjet); CNC machining; wire forming (added through the 2010 acquisition of Dayton Wire Products); metal forming with CNC press brakes and tube/roll forming; TIG, MIG, resistance, and robotic welding; high-volume e-coating (8-stage wash at Medina); powder coating and finishing across three sites; shot blasting and burnoff; metal screen printing; and value-add services such as contract manufacturing, warehousing, assembly, packaging, and shipping. Notable proprietary capabilities include Class D weld certification for locomotive work and a high-volume E-Coat/Powder Coat line with 14 automated spray guns.

NCT monetizes through project-based, one-time fabrication contracts with quote-based pricing, sold exclusively via direct enterprise sales through dedicated account managers and project leaders (24-hour response commitment). Revenue is generated across two broad customer groups: industrial OEM end markets — Automotive OEM (e.g., Mahle), Heavy Truck, Locomotive, and Other Manufacturing including aerospace, healthcare, and government specialty projects — and retail channels including Grocery & Convenience Stores, Restaurants & Coffee Shops, Consumer Products (e.g., Delta Faucet-branded items), and Domestic Distributors (e.g., Diversipak, with a 5+ year program). The company reports a 99%+ client retention rate, is ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 certified, and has no disclosed institutional or external capital backing.
