Chapco announces new 150,000 sqft manufacturing facility. Strengthens support for defense primes and commercial partners

For Immediate Release:

Chester, CT: January 15, 2026 – Chapco, Inc., today announced a major expansion with its move to a new 150,000 sqft state of the art manufacturing facility in Deep River, CT.

Founded in 1964, Chapco, Inc. has grown to supply advanced fabrication and assemblies to partners across the defense industrial base, medical technology, energy, AI infrastructure, and commercial manufacturing markets.

The company is well known across the region for complex projects, from early concept through scaled production. Serving as a single-source manufacturing partner, Chapco provides precision sheet metal fabrication; CNC machining; welding and finishing; contract assembly and new product engineering.

Chapco’s new Deep River, CT, campus consolidates that growth, enabling Chapco to:

– Produce larger-format assemblies with substantially expanded manufacturing floor space

– Increase capacity for small, high-volume and large, small-volume sheet metal fabrication

– Deliver high complexity contract assembly programs on time and on budget

– Enable customers to consolidate supply chains and reduce risk in geopolitically unstable times

This expansion coincides with a leadership milestone for Weinstein, who marks 25 years with Chapco, and underscores his commitment to long-term strategic investment.

“Our new, 150,000 sqft facility brings all of our teams together under one roof," said Weinstein, today. "This strategic move is designed to support the advanced manufacturing requirements that our country's manufacturing base and defense contractors rely on—well into the future."

While the relocation is geographically modest—from Chester to Deep River, Connecticut—its implications are significant: the continued development of a fully integrated, responsive, and growth-ready manufacturing partner for OEMs and defense primes seeking reliability in an increasingly constrained supplier landscape.
