Why Advance Plating & Finishing

Your suppliers should make your job easier, not harder. Here's how we do that.

Speed

1–3 day standard turnaround. Same-day rush when you're in a bind. Quotes back in 1–2 days, not 1–2 weeks. Two fully automated lines mean your parts move through fast — no bottlenecks, no excuses.

Delivery Reliability

Zero customers lost to delivery issues. Not last year — ever. 99%+ on-time delivery rate. Your production schedule depends on your plater showing up. We show up.

Available Capacity

Running at 30% capacity on two automated lines. While other platers are pushing lead times or turning away work, we have room for yours — and room to scale with you.

Service

Proven Quality

99%+ first pass yield. <1% scrap. 2,040-hour white rust salt spray. Meet and exceed all OEM specs. Quality isn't our differentiator — it's our floor.
