Precision plating has a state-of-the-art plastics plating facility. The plant is fully automated and computer controlled to ensure that your parts receive the exact plating specification every single time.

Plastics plating requires precise controls and checks and is much more involved than plating on metals. An automated plant enables reliable plating and precise time control in the tanks that each part goes through.

We can plate a range of finishes on plastic which include chrome, satin chrome, satin pearl, gold, black chrome and black sapphire.

Types of Plastic That Can Be Plated

To enable plating to adhere onto plastic, you need a special type of plastic. Generally, the type used is electroplating grade Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS). If you have plastics that are nylon or contain polycarbonate, please speak to a technical representative from Precision Plating.

Plastic parts generally need to have purpose built racks. This is to ensure they are held in the right place and they don’t warp or bend in the process.
