Aeronautics and defence
Kanigen Group has been working for the defence and arms sectors for almost 30 years and offers a range of related services. Our electroless nickel processes allow us to meet many needs within this sector. Our company references include several clients, arms manufacturers and system builders. Given the aeronautics industry’s growing demands, we are considering implementing the EN9100 quality management system.
