Plasma polishing

Plasma polishing and electropolishing are electrochemically ablative processes, for cleaning, fine deburring and polishing of stainless steels. Welds can be cleaned, tarnish removed and surfaces polished in one operation.

Plasma and electrochemical polishing

Anodising

Anodising aluminium converts the top layer of an aluminium component into a robust oxide layer. By means of decorative blasting, the aluminium surface is micro-profiled before oxidation, which further reduces germ adhesion.

Anodising

Electroplating

Electroplating is an electrochemical process for metal deposition on metallic or metallized surfaces. BWB offers a wide range of technical coatings such as tin plating, silver plating, gold plating and chemical nickel plating.
