The Military systems and Technology Benchmark for Parylene Coating.
In aerospace, defense, and high-reliability electronics, failure is not an option.
The protection of micro-electronics, complex geometries, and sensitive assemblies require more than a coating process, it requires a controlled, certified, and engineered system designed for repeatability at the microscopic level.
That is where Advanced Coating stands apart.
Located in Rancho Cucamonga, California, Advanced Coating has become synonymous with precision Parylene conformal coating for aerospace, defense, medical, and industrial electronics where performance, protection, and uniformity are non-negotiable.
Driving Toward NADCAP Certification in 2026
As part of our continued commitment to the highest level of process control and quality assurance, Advanced Coating is on track to achieve NADCAP accreditation in 2026 for our Parylene conformal coating processes.
NADCAP is not simply a certification — it is the aerospace and defense industry’s benchmark for:
- Verified process control
- Documented repeatability
- Operator qualification and training
- Strict material traceability
- Equipment calibration and maintenance discipline
- Audit-proven compliance to aerospace special process requirements
For OEMs, primes, and Tier suppliers, NADCAP signals one thing clearly:
Your coating partner operates at the same disciplined level as your flight-critical manufacturing processes.
This accreditation strengthens our existing AS9100 / ISO 9001 quality management system and aligns Advanced Coating directly with the stringent expectations of military specifications, aerospace standards, and high-reliability electronics manufacturing.
Engineered for Complex Geometry and Micro-Tolerance Applications
Parylene is uniquely suited for the protection of advanced electronics — but only when applied with precision.
Advanced Coating specializes in:
- Uniform micron-level thickness control
- Complex 3D geometries and tight tolerances
- Optical clarity applications
- High-temperature and specialty Parylene variants
- Selective masking and precision application
- Repeatable coverage on sensitive assemblies
- Protection against vibration, altitude change, moisture, fuels, and contaminants
Our processes are engineered to ensure consistent dielectric strength, chemical resistance, and long-term reliability in the harshest operating environments.
Current Certifications & Compliance Capabilities at Advanced Coating
Advanced Coating’s Parylene conformal coating services are backed by a suite of formal quality and compliance credentials that position the company as a trusted partner for defense, aerospace, and high-reliability electronics programs:

Quality and On-Time Delivery That Customers Rely On
Advanced Coating is recognized by customers across aerospace, defense, and medical sectors for two defining characteristics:
Uncompromising Quality & Consistent On-Time Delivery
These are not marketing claims, they are operating principles embedded into our daily production systems, planning discipline, and continuous improvement culture.
Our customers trust us because we understand that coating is often the final step before assembly, integration, or deployment. Delays and defects are simply not acceptable.
Partnership at the R&D Stage
What truly differentiates Advanced Coating is how early we engage.
We work directly with engineering and R&D teams during development to:
- Review design intent and geometry
- Identify masking and coverage risks early
- Recommend Parylene variants based on environment and function
- Prevent downstream coating issues before production begins
- Reduce rework, scrap, and schedule delays
This proactive communication ensures a smoother path from prototype to production and strengthens long-term customer partnerships built on technical trust.
LEADERSHIP DRIVING THE FUTURE OF PARYLENE
“Innovation in Parylene isn’t about tomorrow, it’s about delivering next-generation performance today.”
Ernest Garcia
Under the leadership of General Manager Ernest Garcia, Advanced Coating continues to expand its technical capabilities, quality systems, and customer engagement model to meet the evolving needs of aerospace and defense electronics. The focus remains simple: push the limits of what Parylene protection can achieve while maintaining the highest standards of operational excellence.
