The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 13485, and AS9100D certifications and is ITAR registered.

"GPI's ability to leverage metal additive manufacturing accelerates both design cycles and time to market and further enhances FATHOM's existing metal additive capabilities and our unique customer value proposition," says Ryan Martin, chief executive officer of FATHOM.

"Digital Manufacturing is now fundamental to the successful development of hardware solutions," says Rich Stump, co-founder and CCO of FATHOM. "Our four legacy companies each held important industry positions. Our new combined entity, Fathom, is uniquely poised to lead the digital manufacturing revolution and with the addition of GPI, our customers will have access to further additive manufacturing capabilities."

"This partnership with FATHOM will further benefit our valued customers through an enhanced suite of on-demand manufacturing capabilities accompanied by the same excellent customer service, quality and metallurgical expertise for which we're known," says Scott Galloway, founder and CEO of GPI.
