The AST Approach

On the surface, we are a plating solutions manufacturer. Dig deeper and you’ll discover that our customers think of us as problem-solvers, reliable partners and lateral thinkers. The longstanding relationships we’ve built over the past 50 years with our clients and our vendors are a true testament to our character. These relationships have allowed us to deliver superior plating solutions for every one of our customers. We listen, understand, and work diligently to get to the heart of our customers’ pain points, because we believe that’s when the magic happens.

Though we’re able to meet all plating needs, we take extra pleasure in tackling the toughest plating challenges from various industries. Our tailored results don’t always fit the norm in the plating world. If our process needs to change to address hard-to-plate surfaces, we’ll change it. If tweaks to the chemistry of the plating composition are required to get it just right, we make them.

There’s value in working closely with our customers and vendors, in fostering trust and mutual respect. When invited to collaborate at the beginning stages of a project, we’re able to help customers avert potential problems before a product reaches a breaking point.

We don’t settle for anything less than perfection, internally and externally. It’s the reason we created our proprietary internal system with 12 lines dedicated to a specific metal and two that duplicate the same metal type, ensuring that each metal receives the proper cleaning in preparation for plating. Four of our lines are designated to certain customers, allowing us to deliver consistent quality—time and time again. We take pride in what we do, in the cleanliness of our facility, in our extensive knowledge and in ensuring the success of our customers—each and every one.

Our extensive experience positions us as the go-to company capable of handling unique metal plating.
