Company Values

Although our subsidiaries are long established, we do not rest on past success but are constantly striving forward, guided by the following values:

Continuous Improvement

There is nothing that cannot be improved, and we seek to reduce waste, improve our services, and enhance our capabilities through continuous improvement. Since 2006, we have embarked on a very high rate of internal investment in organization, facilities, and our capabilities to create measurable and positive performance and capability differentials in the expert manufacturing services we provide. For example, our subsidiary DCHN was the first full service metal finishing company attaining ISO-13485 accreditation.

Creativity & Innovation

Although our core technologies have been around for many years, there is a constant need to upgrade, refresh, and innovate. We have best-in-market coating tolerance capability within our Teflon coating subsidiary, Precision Coating Company Inc. At DCHN we have developed and commercialized with great success the revolutionary anodic coating technology, MICRALOX, based on microcrystalline phase changes.

Customer Service

As a service provider, we must meet all of our customers’ requirements if we are going to be a partner in their long-term success. Whether it is meeting deadlines, effective investigations into non-conformities and strong preventive action follow through, or ease of doing business, all of our employees impact the strength of our relationships with customers.

Most of us join a company not only for a job but a career. Katahdin offers growth opportunities including the opportunity to take on increased responsibilities within one of our subsidiary companies, moving up at a different subsidiary, or filling a role that serves all of our subsidiaries.
