ITAR Certification
ITAR Certified: Ensuring Compliance in Defense Manufacturing
At CES Machine, our responsibility to national security and regulatory compliance is embedded in everything we do. As an ITAR-registered manufacturer, we ensure the secure handling of defense-related components and technical data. Our registration with the U.S. Department of State’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) confirms that we are qualified and committed to maintaining the confidentiality and integrity of U.S. defense manufacturing requirements.
What is ITAR?
The International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) is a set of U.S. government rules that govern the manufacturing, export, and handling of defense-related articles and services listed on the United States Munitions List (USML). ITAR is enforced by the Department of State and aims to prevent the unauthorized access or export of sensitive military technologies. To legally handle ITAR-controlled items or data, a company must be registered with the DDTC and comply with strict process and personnel controls.
Why ITAR Certification Matters
In defense and aerospace industries, compliance with ITAR is critical. It protects sensitive technologies and ensures national security. Working with an ITAR-registered supplier like CES provides clients with the assurance that their parts, projects, and data are protected under the most stringent federal requirements. Our registration helps customers mitigate legal and operational risks associated with non-compliance.
Key Benefits of Working with an ITAR-Registered Manufacturer

We implement security measures to protect controlled technical data from unauthorized access, ensuring that only authorized U.S. persons are involved in relevant projects.
- Compliant Manufacturing:
We adhere to all regulatory requirements concerning the handling and manufacturing of ITAR-controlled parts, ensuring compliance from start to finish. - Reduced Risk:
Working with CES significantly lowers the risk of ITAR violations. Our robust compliance system manages regulations so clients can focus on production and delivery. - Proven Industry Experience:

How ITAR Registration Supports Our Clients
