Gavial is a privately held SBA small business with operations in California, New York and Virginia. We are dedicated to serving our customers and developing our employees. We continually seek opportunities for growth through partnership and acquisition. Gavial began operations in 1981 in Lompoc, California as a former segment of General Electric's Reentry & Environmental Systems Division. This GE division supported GE's nuclear power and petroleum production customers as well as various Air Force space initiatives. As the U.S. nuclear building program slowed in the early 1980s, GE sold the assets of its Lompoc operation, creating the opportunity for seven GE managers to buy elements of the division in 1981 and form Gavial, Inc In August 1995, the company was purchased by the current ownership, which changed the name to Gavial Engineering & Manufacturing, Inc, to reflect the increasing capability of the Company. Aero Industries was acquired by Gavial in 2004 to increase the Company's manufacturing and machining capabilities. In early 2006, Gavial acquired what is today Met Weld International, is a leading supplier of Engineered Process Systems and Industrial Controls for the power generation, oil & gas and chemical industries. The addition of Met Weld further expanded Gavial's reach into the global energy industries. Today, Gavial is a fully integrated industrial services and manufacturing company. We are dedicated to serving our customer's needs and delivering the best product available. Gavial is committed to supporting its employees and maintaining a safe and stable work environment.
