Newington Manufacturer Spotlighted by U.S. Senator

NEWINGTON, CT — U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy has named Accurate Threaded Products (ATP) Company of Newington as this week’s “Murphy’s Monday Manufacturer.”

Veteran-owned and family-operated, ATP is a custom manufacturer of commercial and military aerospace components. ATP maintains a high quality standard for compliance as an ISO 9001:2008 and AS9100 registered company. Currently, 20 employees work out of the 20,000 square foot plant at 280 Hartford Avenue in Newington, and the company is looking to hire more skilled CNC machinists.

Celebrating its 90th year of manufacturing in Connecticut this year, ATP has served as a supplier to Pratt & Whitney since day one, starting with manufacturing components for Frederick Rentscher’s Wasp engine to providing parts for today’s PurePower Geared Turbo Fan Engine. ATP also serves Mitsubishi, Kaman, and the U.S. government.

“Pratt & Whitney is an iconic Connecticut manufacturer, but just as important to our state’s manufacturing story are the small, family-owned suppliers like ATP that have been there from the very beginning,” said Murphy. “Every day, ATP manufacturers components that are critical to the engines that power our military’s fighter jets and protect our national security. I’m proud to highlight them today.”

Geoffrey Etherington, owner of ATP, said, “My 50 years of manufacturing experience in Connecticut have not always been easy but they have been interesting and rewarding.”
