Chrome is an extremely popular finish and can be used to coat a wide range of metals, resulting in a highly reflective and durable finish.

A wide range of industry sectors use chrome for their products ranging from automotive to domestic and is used for a large variety of items including head light trims, grilles, handles and exhausts to taps, electrical appliances and light fittings.

Copper plating is used for both industrial and decorative applications. The Copper plating process is suitable for plating on Steel and Zinc die-castings.

Copper is normally used as an undercoat for Nickel or Chrome however with its excellent thermal and conductive properties Copper plating is widely used in the electrical and electronic industries, commonly used in a variety of heating, industrial and electrical applications.

An aesthetically pleasing, luxurious finish which is widely used throughout a vast scope of industry sectors including bar/restaurant fittings, bathroom fixtures and automotive components. It also provides a corrosion-resistant conductive layer and is therefore also commonly used in the electronics industry.

Rather than applying a lacquer to prevent tarnishing, the gold solution is infused with nickel to achieve a hard deposit able to withstand regular cleaning.
