Plating Decor was founded on April 14, 1986, with 4 employees and focused on the Spanish market, whose finishes were flash gold, plated in 1-2 microns of gold, covered with silver on mainly chains. In the early 90's, the incorporation of technicians with ample solvency and experience in the electroplating industry of precious metals, made the company begin to prepare for growth by opening up to foreign markets, beginning to export to France, Benelux, Portugal etc. In 1995 the company moved to new facilities of 1000 square meters domiciled in SANT FELIU del LLOBREGAT, and during all these years we have continued our penetration into the European market until achieving an export figure of 94% of our total daily turnover from today. Investments in recent years have been over 3 million euros, including 2 new facilities that will start up in spring 2012. These facilities will be designed to supply the demand of the luxury and decoration market, in materials such as ZAMAK , brass and stainless steel. Plating Decor throughout its history has developed exclusive processes that differentiate it from the standards of the precious metal coatings market. Some of them are the protection of silver by means of rhodium with a total absence of black or white points when it is exposed in the shop windows. Two-color / three-color processes on any type of metal and / or stainless steel (316L, surgical, etc). This exclusive Plating Decor process combines the different colors of gold (at any thickness), rhodium, ruthenium, palladium, etc. Our main finishes are gold plating up to 10 microns, the most common being 3 or 5 microns with the final color desired by the client, with our own processes for treating rhodium-plated silver, and two-color on any surface, including any stainless steel. . Our main markets are quality jewelery, decoration, and luxury, being a supplier of the first brands worldwide. We believe that with our experience accumulated over 25 years, with our highly qualified staff, and with our know-how, we will be prepared for new technological challenges. These can be the correct distribution of thicknesses throughout the entire piece, more demanding quality controls, etc. At the same time, our concept of responsibility towards our clients leads us to advise them and provide them with the necessary technical assistance so that with the synergies of both parties the final product has the maximum benefits. All this will allow us to face the next 25 years with the same enthusiasm that we have had until now or even increase it.
