Advanced composite materials innovator (Henderson, Nev., U.S.) has acquired  (Santa Fe Springs, U.S.), a California-based manufacturer of composite resin systems, tooling products, adhesives and coatings. The acquisition strengthens Mako’s position in the composite materials sector by integrating PTM&W’s established product lines and technologies with Mako’s expanding production and innovation capabilities.

This acquisition enables Mako to broaden its portfolio of high-performance materials used in aerospace, defense, automotive, marine, sporting goods and industrial applications. PTM&W will continue operations at its Santa Fe Springs facility, while Mako will supplement its capabilities with advanced mixing and coating operations from Henderson. The combined expertise will provide multi-site production redundancy, enhance production efficiency, expand R&D initiatives and increase technical support capabilities.

“PTM&W’s long-standing reputation for high-performance products and technologies complements our commitment to innovation, manufacturing excellence, and customer-focused solutions,” says Dr. Johnny Lincoln, president of Mako Advanced Materials. “We are fortunate to have found such an ideal cultural and technical fit with PTM&W. We’re excited to work alongside its dedicated team.”

As part of the transition, PTM&W’s president and founder, Charles Owen, will remain as a consultant, providing guidance during the integration process.

The acquisition reflects Mako’s continued investments in scalable production, research advancements and supply chain optimization to support key industries including high-rate production processes for unmanned defense platforms and urban air mobility, and higher temperature material and tooling solutions for lightweight thermal management.
