Nadcap

Saporito Finishing is Nadcap Accredited in chemical processing (AS7108) and Aerospace Quality Systems (AS7104). Saporito has been an important part of the Nadcap chemical processing task group since it’s inception over 15 years ago. Few chemical processors in the world have as thorough an understanding of Nadcap and the chemical processing task group as Saporito Finishing. Saporito is a voting member of the Chemical processing task group which is the group responsible for the maintenance and revisions of the AS7108 specification and the operating procedures of the task group.

Nadcap originally was an acronym for the National Aerospace and Defense Contractors Accreditation Program. Since becoming a global specification and entity, Nadcap is no longer an acronym.
