With over 40 years of propellant systems experience, Talley Defense Systems continues to move forward as a premier source for the design, development, and production of propellant-based products. 
Since 1960, Talley has been a pioneer in developing aircrew escape systems, automobile airbag components, submunition dispensing systems, shoulder-launched weapons, and other key propellant-loaded devices. Located on approximately 550 acres in Mesa, Arizona, twenty miles east of Phoenix, Talley operates a complete industrial complex designed for the development, testing and manufacturing of a wide range of propellant-based products. 
As an ISO 9001 certified, employee-owned business, Talley continues to provide superior service, design innovation, and creative technical solutions to meet our customers' propellant related needs. In our effort to exceed customer expectations, we are committed to continually improving the quality of our people, products, processes, and relationships.

Through an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), Talley Defense Systems is a successful 100% employee-owned business focused on growth, technical creativity, and high quality products. We actively pursue Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) projects and Small Business Technology Transfer Research (STTR) awards. Several SBIR projects have already been won.

SBIR and STTR projects leverage Talley resources to develop the pyrotechnic commercial industry. Teaming between Talley and a larger business is permitted and encouraged. With such teaming arrangements, the teamed companies benefit and the commercial pyrotechnic product market expands. After the initial phase is complete, follow-on phases are often awarded which have significant monetary budgets.
