Procedure at a glance

Nickel plating

Nickel deposition is mainly carried out from sulphuric acid electrolytes (Watt's bath) and can influence the layer structure by adding organic substances. Matt, bright (decorative) and semi-bright (corrosion-resistant) layers can be deposited. With two successful patents on the market, we are experts in aluminium electroplating, specializing in the nickel plating of aluminium and the associated processes such as copper plating and chrome plating.
