Apple says suppliers across more than a dozen U.S. states make nearly 100 parts for two new iPhones, reflecting its effort to expand domestic manufacturing.
The company outlined that supply network Oct. 20 alongside a plan to commit up to $100 million over three years with Perryman Company, a Pennsylvania titanium producer. Perryman supplies material for Apple products including iPhone Duo, which Apple describes as its first foldable iPhone.
Perryman melts, forges and rolls titanium at its Houston, Pennsylvania, site, Apple said. The material contains at least 80% recycled content and is used for the phone’s Grade 5 titanium enclosure.
Apple did not specify how much titanium Perryman will supply, when deliveries will begin or how payments will be scheduled. It also gave no estimate of jobs tied to the partnership.
The Perryman supply arrangement falls under Apple’s American Manufacturing Program, introduced in 2025. Apple placed the program within a four-year, $600 billion commitment to manufacturing and innovation in the United States. The company says it aims to bring more of its supply chain into the country and encourage global firms to make critical components there.
The network extends beyond titanium. Delaware-based Qnity Electronics will make films in the United States for the iPhone 18 Pro’s variable-aperture camera system, which Apple says provides control over light and depth.
Apple has also pointed to its longer relationship with Corning, a supplier since the first iPhone in 2007. The company expects Corning’s Kentucky plant to make cover glass for every iPhone and Apple Watch sold worldwide by the end of 2026.
U.S. prices for iPhone Duo start at $1,999, and preorders opened Oct. 16. Apple has scheduled availability to begin Oct. 23.
