New technology to replace the chrome plating on the ability of chromium-plate metal and non-metallic surfaces (plastic, fiberglass, wood, most of the surface). Without representing the pitfalls of chromium and its environment.

Used in a wide range of plating has become increasingly difficult in recent years. Regulations against security risks and protect the environment, hexavalent chrome have increased the amount of chromium plating and burdened facilities in coating services. Classic chrome has some limitations and can not be used to chrome plate many surfaces. Although the industry downsizing and consolidation has led to the closure or relocation of offshore as many as half of the plating shops in North America due to EPA regulations. Europe and Asia is largely ambivalent is not interested in pushing the regulation of much of North America chrome plating over the sea.

It has become necessary for an alternative, chrome plating, that the security issues of environmental and conventional chrome plating. Chemical metallization of the substrate using a chemical process instead of an electric process to attach a metal. One advantage is, non-ferrous metals and can be chrome (plastic, wood, fiberglass, most of the surface).

There are also more flexibility in the parties less losses due to flex flexibility is due to the small thickness of the coating. Conventional chrome plating thickness of the different layers of the metal to be used does not allow flexibility, which can lead to failure of the parties. The process requires no hexavalent chromium, the main environmental problems of conventional chrome.

It also dyes, colors like gold to get, black chrome green, even red or blue. The only weak point of this new procedure is that the durability is comparable completed with a high-end industrial and automotive. Chemical metallization has not yet reached the level of support all the hard uses of chromium, but is now a viable solution for most needs chrome plating.
