Northwest Etch Technology Company Profile

In 1978, NW Etch was established as Northwest Chemical Milling Company in Renton, Washington by Carl Whinery. He moved the company to Auburn, Washington in the early ‘80s and occupied two different locations during that time period. As the company matured, it became known for its willingness to undertake projects that were considered ‘impossible’ and ‘theoretically’ outside the scope of photo chemical machining capabilities.

Today NW Etch is a thriving company employing more than 45 employees, delivering products to 26 states and 10 foreign countries on five continents. With the capability of being able to laminate, image and etch thin metal product utilizing a 60″ etcher, NW Etch continues to occupy a unique place in the photo chemical machining market. In addition to the large etcher, an on-site 1/8 mil resolution laser plots produce high quality tooling used to manufacture custom parts for our customers.
