We go to great lengths to control sourcing of all raw materials. Should you have a DFAR (Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement) requirement for your wire cloth we can certify that the country of melt conforms to the updated requirement, called out as DFARS 225.872-1. All of our DFAR certified material is woven on our machinery at Belleville Wire Cloth.

“1. Preference for Domestic Specialty Metals: Supplier must comply with DFARS 252.225-7014, ALT 1 clause. This clause prohibits a prime contractor and all of its sub-tier suppliers from incorporating “specialty metals” (as defined in the clause) into military parts, components and/or end item deliverable, unless the specialty metals have been melted in the United States, its outlying areas or a qualifying country listed in DFARS 225.872-1.”
