Shipping & Logistics Made Easy
Getting parts to your plater and back again should be easy. That’s why we’ve designed our facility to eliminate delays, minimize handling, and keep drivers moving.

- Gatto fleet – daily routes for local customers
- Central Chicago Location – close to major markets across the U.S. for faster, more efficient distribution
Quality & Process Control
Plating performance depends on process control. Guided by ISO 9001:2015 standards, our in-house quality lab monitors the details that determine how parts perform so results are measured, documented, and repeatable.
- Daily bath testing - for stable chemistry and defect prevention
- Salt spray checks - to verify corrosion resistance
- X-Ray & Eddy Current tools - to confirm coating thickness
Custom Packing Capabilities
Protecting parts doesn’t stop at plating. Alongside standard repackaging, we have a dedicated packing department ready to handle specialized requests.
- Wrapping, bundling, tagging, and labeling - available upon request
- Lot separation for bulk orders - parts received as bulk can ship as separated lots for streamlined handling.
- Dedicated packaging team that handles special requests daily.
Responsive Service & Support
Strong plating support requires more than a quality finish. It takes real people who pick up the phone, understand the process, and provide the answers you need to keep your projects moving.
- Direct access to knowledgeable staff who can review your requirements and answer your finish questions
- Guidance on process requirements to prevent plating issues before they happen
- Responsive communication to support tight timelines and hot orders
