Plating & Surface Coatings

Surface finishing is a critical final step for countless metal components

Enhancing their appearance, corrosion resistance, durability, and functionality. While we possess significant internal capabilities, particularly within our press shop, we strategically partner with several highly reputable local external providers to offer a comprehensive suite of surface finishing services right here in our network. This allows us to provide you with a seamless and efficient solution for your metal finishing needs.

Our Collaborative Approach

This enables us to offer a diverse range of surface treatments including:

Polishing

Achieving mirror-like finishes or specific surface textures for aesthetic appeal or functional requirements.

Zinc Plating

Providing excellent corrosion resistance and a bright, golden or silver appearance.

Zinc-Nickel Plating

Offering superior corrosion resistance, often with enhanced hardness and a more attractive grey finish compared to zinc plating.

Tin Plating

Known for its excellent solderability, corrosion resistance (especially in acidic environments), and bright, reflective finish.

Anodising

Creating a durable, corrosion-resistant, and wear-resistant oxide layer on aluminium surfaces, available in various colours.

Galvanising (Hot-Dip & Electro-Galvanising)

Immersing components in molten zinc (hot dip) or applying a zinc coating via electrolysis (electro-galvanising) for exceptional rust protection.

Chemical Blacking

Producing a durable, corrosion-resistant black oxide coating on steel and iron, often used for aesthetic or military applications.

Powder Coating

Applying dry powder via an electrostatic process followed by curing, resulting in durable, environmentally friendly, and often textured or colourful finishes.

Phosphating

Forming a thin, crystalline layer on metal surfaces (typically steel) to improve paint adhesion, reduce friction, and provide initial corrosion protection.

What We Offer

By integrating these capabilities through our partnerships, we ensure that your components receive the precise surface treatment needed to meet the demanding specifications of your application. We understand the importance of quality and consistency, and our rigorous quality control processes are maintained throughout the entire finishing cycle, whether performed in-house or via our trusted external partners.
