RE:Titanium Powder MarketI will put in my grain of salt.
They have to focus on this customer which I believe is Boeing for two reasons.
1- They had given the exclusive distribution in Europe to Aubert & Duval a few years back (close to 3 years) and no sales have resulted from the deal.
2- Aubert & Duval has been bought out by Airbus which is the other Player. So if your prospect becomes your competitor, it looks logical to focus on Boeing and wish them good luck.
What we do not know is what the rules are on dealing with the subcontractors/ suppliers of major components like landing gear (Heroux-Devtek in Montreal, for example.). There are also other aerospace cies like Bombardier, Sykorsky, Embraer, Lockheed Martin. There are others on the list.
I also think that avionics manufacturers will want to diversify their supply chain..
