With Platega® blend Rh and Platega® blend Rh eco, two perfectly matched platinum-rhodium electrolytes are available. They achieve the same visual outcome – but differ deliberately in technical and economic terms. This article helps you make the right decision for your application.

We are in the final development phase of a new platinum electrolyte that enables the deposition of exceptionally thick platinum layers up to 10 µm—crack-free, homogeneous, and with very uniform thickness distribution. Our innovation is specifically designed for applications that require platinum coatings up to 10 µm.

The electroplating of gold layers plays a central role in decorative applications, in the jewellery industry and in spectacle frames. In view of rising raw material prices and the desire for more robust surfaces, classic 23-carat gold baths are coming under increasing pressure. In this context, alternatives to pure gold are becoming increasingly important.

We manufacture our platinum-coated titanium anodes ourselves – setting new standards in flexibility, speed, and precision. Whether standard size or custom-made: we provide you the anode you need – without detours or long delivery times.

The zinc-nickel coating process is the solution for anyone with the highest demands on corrosion protection. This high-performance coating has proven itself in the automotive, aviation and electrical industries.

We are pleased to announce that our partner Harma Jaghlasian will be representing IWG with MAESTRO Jewelry Tools & Machinery at JCK Las Vegas.

In the world of electroplating, rhodium is often referred to as the king of precious metals due to its unique properties and breathtaking shine.

We are pleased to announce that IWG has officially achieved the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC) Chain of Custody certification!

In order to facilitate the recognisability of IWG quality products, but above all to simplify our processes, all products will be provided with black closures in future.
