ITAR-registered — for defense and dual-use parts.
ITAR registration is required for any manufacturer touching defense-controlled technical data or hardware. K+G is registered with the US Department of State (DDTC). All ITAR work runs on a controlled-data infrastructure with US-persons-only access.
Personnel, data, and supply chain — all controlled.
ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations) governs how manufacturers handle defense-controlled technical data and hardware. The compliance burden is real — but for any program touching defense, ITAR registration is the price of admission.
Active DDTC registration
Registered with the US State Department / Directorate of Defense Trade Controls. Registration renewed annually. Confirms K+G as a US-domestic manufacturer authorized to handle ITAR-controlled work.
Controlled-data infrastructure
ITAR drawings, STEP files, and program data segregated at the network and physical level from non-ITAR work. Drawing access logged. Foreign-person access blocked at the source.
US-persons workforce
Every team member touching ITAR work is a US person (citizen or permanent resident) per ITAR definition. New-hire screening enforces this before any controlled work access is granted.
Defense, dual-use, and some aerospace.
