VERSATILE SPRAY PAINTING JOINS THE ONTARIO DEFENCE ASSOCIATION
Press Release

We are pleased to announce our membership in the Ontario Defence Association (ODA).
Formally established in April 2026, the ODA is Ontario’s only not-for-profit organization dedicated to advancing the province’s defence industrial base across land, air, maritime, digital defence, and advanced manufacturing sectors.
As a member, VSP brings:
AS9100D quality management certification
Canada Controlled Goods Program registration
70+ years of precision finishing experience
Specializations in EMI shielding, conformal coating, and military-grade liquid and powder coatings
An established client base across defence, aerospace, telecommunications, and medical electronics
VSP is also proud to be a 50% Indigenous-owned business. For prime contractors and procurement teams with Indigenous participation requirements, this designation adds meaningful supply chain value alongside our technical certifications and defence sector experience.
As Canada increases defence investment and procurement reform accelerates under the “Build-Partner-Buy” framework, supply chain readiness matters more than ever. ODA membership connects us with provincial coordination mechanisms, procurement pathways, and industry partnerships that support our ability to meet Canada’s growing defence requirements.
We look forward to contributing to a stronger, more capable Ontario defence industrial base.
