Gold Plating

Gold plating is a process in which we deposit a very thin layer of gold on the surface of another metal predominantly by chemical or electro-chemical plating. It is evident that gold is generally one of the protective metals of choice due to its higher standard electrode potential [Ref] compared to other metals like palladium, silver, copper, tin, nickel etc. This makes it the most noble metal for plating with the highest corrosion resistance. Moreover, they are inert and quite resistant to oxidation. Due to its scarcity and higher cost, gold is often sparingly applied. They can be plated directly on a base metal or gold can be applied over an undercoating such as nickel to improve adhesion of the gold itself.

Gold plating serves various purposes, including enhancing conductivity, providing decoration, offering corrosion protection, and increasing reflectivity. In addition, gold is often used for conductivity instead of silver because it is a cleaner tarnish free surface.  It is also impervious to certain chemicals making it the preferred choice with respect to corrosion protection under special applications. We are experienced in plating decorative artworks and Industrial part. Hence, we are the perfect choice for high quality gold plating works.

We offer gold plating services in a range of thicknesses, starting at 0.000007″, which is commonly used for costume jewelry. Furthermore, we have a thickness limit of 0.0002″. For specific applications, a commonly utilized thickness falls within the range of 0.00002″ to 0.00003″. Our gold is specially alloyed with cobalt and nickel, resulting in a hard gold composition. It is worth mentioning that our Dubai branch is extensively dedicated to providing exceptional plating services.
