Forged Solutions Group Acquires Custom Alloy to Bolster Naval Supply
A strategic shift in the defense manufacturing landscape arrived this week as Forged Solutions Group finalized its purchase of High Bridge-based Custom Alloy Corporation. The acquisition integrates a specialized U.S. Navy Level 1 nuclear supplier into a global forging platform backed by private equity firm J.F. Lehman & Company.

Custom Alloy Corporation brings extensive technical capabilities to the partnership, including expertise in manufacturing components across more than 170 distinct alloys. Beyond forging, the New Jersey-based firm offers in-house machining, heat treatment, and testing services, solidifying its role as a critical link in the naval supply chain for both surface and subsurface programs.
Alex Harman, Managing Partner at J.F. Lehman & Company, noted that the deal specifically enhances the firm's exposure to the U.S. nuclear navy sector. He pointed to the ongoing modernization of the naval fleet and increased investment in shipbuilding as primary drivers for the acquisition. FSG Chief Executive Officer Olivier Jarrault stated that the combination allows the companies to share intellectual property and optimize production capacity, positioning the expanded platform to better serve aerospace and defense clients worldwide.
