Primary Industries in New Haven
New Haven’s strongest manufacturing sectors — and the precision parts we machine for each.
Aerospace
New Haven's aerospace footprint connects to Connecticut's massive jet engine and avionics corridor — Pratt & Whitney and Collins Aerospace operations in the Hartford area drive Tier 2 supply chain demand south into the New Haven metro. Sikorsky Aircraft (Lockheed Martin) in nearby Stratford builds Black Hawk and CH-53K King Stallion helicopters, and the region's precision machining shops produce turbine blades, rotor components, and avionics housings for the state's aerospace giants.
