Often chosen for its decorative  appearance and wear resistance plating on plastic can be used for a wide variety of applications due to the fact it is available in various aesthetic finishes. It offers good  is corrosion and wear resistant and is lightweight when compared with its metal alternatives.

The procedure for “Plating on Plastic” consists of a highly complex chemical & electro-chemical process, during which the components go though total immersion in numerous tanks of solution. This includes etching the surface of the mouldings, at a molecular level, to chemically deposit a conductive coating, prior to building up a layer of Copper and Nickel before the final decorative finish.
