About OMI Specialty Products

OMI Specialty Products unites two proven aerospace suppliers—Olympic Aviation and MetalMart International—into a single source for specification‑driven aircraft parts and materials, aviation specialty metals, and chemicals. Our aerospace supplier history spans decades of trusted service. Olympic Aviation, founded in 1968, built a reputation as a one‑stop shop across Parts, Raw Materials, Chemicals, and Government Sales with AOG response, temperature‑controlled handling, and hazardous shipments as part of daily operations, becoming a trusted aerospace chemical supplier and provider of military aviation parts. MetalMart, founded in 1974, became a leading AS9100 certified supplier and specialty metals distributor of hard‑alloy aerospace-grade aluminum extrusions and the largest magnesium alloy distributor of wrought magnesium in North America, with a broad portfolio of aviation raw materials that includes titanium, PH steels, and high‑temperature alloys. Together as OMI, we pair deep inventory and sourcing with AS9100‑driven processes, full traceability, and responsive logistics to support commercial, military, and strategic programs.
