Metitalia

What Metitalia does

Metitalia s.r.l. is a privately held Italian aeronautical company founded in 2017 and headquartered in Angri, Campania. It provides specialized aerospace manufacturing, engineering, and treatment services to aerospace OEMs, military and civil aircraft operators, and Italian/European aircraft maintenance companies. The company is incorporated as a Società a responsabilità limitata with no disclosed parent company, institutional investors, or public listing, and operates from a single facility at Via delle Fontane, 78, 84012 Angri SA.

The company offers a vertically integrated portfolio spanning engineering design and stress analysis, tooling fabrication (lamination and cure tools in aluminum, steel, invar, and carbon epoxy; assembly jigs; aerospace container transporters), composite part manufacturing with autoclave and clean-room capabilities, metal bonding, dimensional and ultrasonic inspection, aluminum alloy heat treatments, and composite repair including scarfing and hot bond methods. Metitalia has developed proprietary technologies, notably RUPS (Recovered Uncured Prepreg Scrapes) recycling for material reuse, an out-of-hangar composite repair system for on-field aircraft damage remediation, and a Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) control system for verifying repair adhesion. The company holds SA8000 social accountability certification and has participated in publicly funded R&D consortia including PON Imprese e Competitività 2014-2020 FESR and the MIMIT-funded MATHSPACE project under the Ital-GovSatCom program for institutional satellite telecommunications structures.

Metitalia's revenue model is project-based B2B, with one-off manufacturing contracts, professional engineering services, and repair operations priced via bespoke quotations to aerospace manufacturers and maintenance buyers. Go-to-market relies on direct enterprise sales relationships, technical reputation, and visibility through industry events and publicly funded R&D participation rather than broad marketing. No revenue, headcount, funding round, M&A, or pricing disclosures are available in the source material.
