Gary Hamby is the President and Chief Executive Officer at H&M Plating in Houston, Texas, and who saw his company grow in volume when many oil and gas operators had trouble getting parts for their equipment and facilities.

Those supply chain problems forced many manufacturers to recondition their parts to keep operations going. Hamby and the four companies he runs — grinding, honing, and finishing — saw a huge benefit.

“With the supply chain issues, you had to fix parts because there wasn't anything to buy,” Hamby says. “I think that most of our people out there realize that they can get parts back faster — and can get it back cheaper — as a better product with the coatings we put on it.”
