TiFast

What TiFast does

TiFast S.r.l. is a privately held European titanium manufacturer headquartered in Narni, Italy, operating a vertically integrated production facility that spans melting, rolling, finishing, and in-house laboratories. The company produces titanium ingots, bars, wires, and billets, alongside zirconium products, using a combination of two Skull Melting (cold hearth) furnaces and one Vacuum Arc Remelting (VAR) furnace, supported by a high-voltage 130,000V power infrastructure. Its finished-bar portfolio is qualified to aerospace specification AMS 4928 and medical specification ISO 5832-3, and the firm has announced industrial production of TI64 grade bars incorporating a minimum of 90% recycled titanium content.

The company sells exclusively on a B2B basis via a direct enterprise sales force, with no e-commerce or self-serve channels, and applies quote-based pricing to its customers. It targets four end verticals: aerospace (NADCAP certified, supplying structural components, landing gear, and engine parts), medical (ISO 13485 certified, supplying implants, joint replacements, dental implants, and surgical instruments), racing/motorsport, and industrial/consumer applications including luxury watches. Commercial outreach is conducted through major industry events (Paris Air Show, ITA Europe and USA, Aerospace & Defense Meetings Torino, Aeromart, Watches and Wonders) and industry associations (IAQG, Umbria Aerospace Cluster).

TiFast holds NADCAP accreditation (with a 2022 Gold Merit for Heat Treating), ISO 13485 for medical devices, ISO 14001 for environmental management, and AS/EN/JISQ 9100 aerospace quality certification. The firm is led by CEO Maksym Voronin and was founded by Gennadiy Greblov, who serves as President and Chairman of the Board. Headcount is reported in the 51-100 range, share capital stands at €4,027,000, and no parent company, institutional investor, or funding round is disclosed in available source material.

Core offering

TiFast manufactures titanium ingots, slabs, bars, wires, and billets from melting to finished products using Skull Melting and VAR furnace technologies at its Narni, Italy facility. The company also produces zirconium products. Output is sold primarily to enterprise customers in aerospace, medical devices, motorsport/racing, and industrial/luxury goods sectors, with products meeting NADCAP aerospace, ISO 13485 medical, and ISO 14001 environmental standards.

Product overview

TiFast is a European titanium producer offering a vertically integrated manufacturing process from melting to finished products. The company operates three melting furnaces (two Skull Melting and one VAR) and produces titanium ingots and slabs, as well as finished bars, wires, and billets. TiFast also has the capability to produce zirconium. The product portfolio serves four main market segments: Aerospace (NADCAP certified), Medical (ISO 13485 certified), Racing, and Industrial applications. The company emphasizes its use of recycled titanium (90%+ in their TI64 bars) and environmental sustainability.

Direct peers

• ATI (Allegheny Technologies): ATI produces titanium and titanium alloys alongside nickel-based superalloys and specialty materials for aerospace and medical end markets. Comparable to TiFast as a specialty alloy producer serving overlapping aerospace OEM customers with similar qualification cycles.
• Perryman Company: Perryman is a US-based producer of titanium bar, wire, and forged products for aerospace, medical, and industrial markets. Comparable to TiFast in product form (bars/wires), customer verticals, and quality system requirements, though with a longer operating history.
• Carpenter Technology Corporation: Carpenter Technology manufactures specialty alloys including titanium, nickel, and stainless steels for aerospace, medical, and industrial markets. Comparable in specialty alloy production capabilities and certification-driven aerospace/medical business model.
• VSMPO-AVISMA: VSMPO-AVISMA is the world's largest titanium producer, supplying roughly a third of global aerospace titanium demand. Directly competes with TiFast on aerospace-grade ingots and bars, and is the primary incumbent that European OEMs are seeking to diversify away from.
• Haynes International: Haynes International produces high-performance nickel and cobalt-based alloys with some titanium capabilities for aerospace and chemical processing. Comparable as a specialty alloy manufacturer using similar melting technologies and serving overlapping aerospace customers.
• TIMET (Titanium Metals Corporation): TIMET, owned by Berkshire Hathaway, is one of the world's largest vertically integrated titanium producers (sponge, ingots, bars, billets) serving aerospace, medical, and industrial markets. Directly comparable to TiFast in product mix, end markets, and certification-driven business model, but at vastly greater scale.

Emerging players

• ADMA Products: ADMA Products is a US-based producer of titanium and specialty alloy products for aerospace, defense, and medical markets. Comparable as a smaller, specialty-focused titanium producer using advanced melting techniques and pursuing similar aerospace and medical certifications.
• TLS Technik GmbH & Co. Spezialpulver KG: TLS Technik is a German specialist in titanium and specialty alloy powders for additive manufacturing and aerospace. Comparable as a European specialty titanium player using advanced melting technology, though focused on powder rather than bar/billet forms.
• Global Titanium Inc. Global Titanium is a US-based distributor and processor of titanium mill products (bars, billets, wire) for aerospace, medical, and industrial markets. Comparable as a smaller-scale titanium bar/billet supplier serving similar customer segments, though primarily distribution-focused.

Broad incumbents

• Thyssenkrupp Aerospace / Materials Services: Thyssenkrupp is a broad industrial incumbent with titanium supply into luxury watch and aerospace markets (already an implied collaborator with TiFast in the watch supply chain). Overlaps with TiFast as a titanium distributor/supplier but operates across a much wider materials portfolio.
