Our Story

A Story Six Decades in the Making

Plating Products, Inc. was founded in 1959 with a singular focus: to provide metal finishing professionals with equipment they could rely on. What started as a small manufacturing operation in the Chicago area has grown into a trusted supplier serving customers across the United States and internationally.

For over six decades, we have stayed true to our founding principles — quality materials, precise manufacturing, and honest customer service. Our team brings deep technical knowledge of the metal finishing industry, and we use that expertise to help customers choose the right products for their specific applications.

Today, Plating Products remains family-oriented in its approach, treating every customer relationship as a long-term partnership.
