Electrolytic treatment

Electroplating is a manufacturing process that aims to change the appearance or function of the surface of materials to suit specific conditions of use.

At Plating Decor, with over 35 years of experience in the sector, we are experts in surface treatment by deposition of precious metals for sectors as varied as jewellery, electronics, automotive, aeronautics, medical, etc…
Our extensive experience in gold plating allows us to work on large thicknesses of gold as well as on more usual thicknesses such as 3 and 5 microns. We have also developed our processes for the application of silver, rhodium, ruthenium and palladium. Finally, thanks to an exclusive method, we can produce two-, three- or four-colour parts that can combine gold tones with silver, rhodium, ruthenium or palladium.

Our techniques can be applied to all types of metal surfaces: brass, copper, zamak, tin, stainless steel, etc., whether they are shiny or matt.

Electrolytic surface treatment

Electrolytic treatment

Allows the deposition of thin layers of metallic coatings on metals by passing a direct electric current through a solution.

This process uses different chemicals, additives, salts and metals to deposit the metals used on the immersed parts during electroplating. This technique consists of moving dissolved metal ions from an anode to a cathode. Plating Decor, being an expert in precious metal coating, has developed a wide variety of electrolytic baths to meet the needs of our customers, offering all of them personalised, quality finishes.
We currently have 3 manual bath lines and one automatic line, allowing us to meet the needs of all types of customers and quantities.

Electroplating of parts for jewellery

We put our know-how and our exclusive processes of precious metal deposition at the service of the jewellery industry. The high quality of our galvanic processes reinforced by manual pre- and post-treatment techniques, allows us to create high quality parts.

Electroplating of industrial parts

Our state-of-the-art equipment allows us to automate the process of depositing precious metals on parts for industry or electronics, while maintaining the highest level of quality. Our automated line is equipped with baths with the same electrochemical characteristics as our manual lines. We give the same attention to detail to the parts treated in the automatic line as to those treated in the manual process, while offering a production volume adapted to the industry.

Our equipment

We offer multiple and flexible integral solutions.

Part polishing
Parts drying
Technical department
We offer our customers complete solutions. We check the parts upon arrival to ensure their quality. In the event of a defect in the base material, we offer optional production solutions that will decisively increase the quality of the finished products. To do this, we have a team of polishers, with manual and automatic means to ensure a perfect final result.

We are also equipped with various drying systems that we use according to the requirements of the pieces, their morphology and complexity.

By preserving the artisanal and manual character of our activity and thanks to our development and innovation team, we create original finishes. We can combine from two to four colours on the same piece.

To guarantee the thickness and quality of the pieces we process, we have an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer. This measuring equipment allows us to analyse materials before or after treatment without any damage to the part. On request, we produce reports on the thickness of the overlaps and a comprehensive analysis of the base material to detect defects and possible problems that may arise.
