Plastic is amongst the most widely used materials today. It is cheap, mouldable and light, however it lacks the rich aesthetic appeal of metals. With our best in class plating on plastic technology we can plate ABS products to give them bright, smooth and attractive finishes. The process is largely decorative in nature but has so far found impactful applications in the automotive, sanitary and fashion industries amongst others.
The process involves many intermediary steps and we provide chemicals for each step of the process to ensure you get an end to end solution.
