Experience
Partnering with U.S. government agencies since 2009 to innovate best-in-class thermal solutions
ThermAvant Technologies provides cutting-edge thermal and mechanical structures for a wide range of industries. We received our first NSF grant in 2009. Today, we primarily serve aerospace and defense customers and work with both government agencies and their leading contractors. Our products range from cryogenic sensor thermal management to liquid metal hypersonic leading edges.
Private-party aerospace, defense, and high technology firms
ThermAvant Technologies began developing and selling oscillating heat pipes (OHPs), custom cold plates, and other advanced thermal-mechanical solutions to leading aero-defense and technology firms. Our list of customers includes seven of the nation’s largest defense contractors and blue-chip opto-electronic device makers.
and 9 of Top 18 U.S. Defense Contractors
