Our History

United Western Enterprises is a supplier of thin photo chemically etched metal parts to a variety of different markets, including aerospace, biomedical and commercial electronics. United Western Enterprises was founded in Santa Monica, California in 1969 as a support facility for a publishing company. Shortly thereafter, United Western Enterprises began producing parts for other companies as a custom job shop. United Western Enterprises moved to a larger facility in Newbury Park, California in 1978, where we focused primarily on the aerospace industry. As the aerospace industry slowed, United Western Enterprises adjusted its base and developed its role as a supplier of parts to the biomedical and consumer electronics industry. As our growth continued, in 1992, United Western Enterprises settled into a 21,000 square foot building, its present home in Camarillo, California. In addition to our chemical etching services, United Western Enterprises has recently acquired equipment and the capability to process graphic film for customers.
