Precious Metal Plating & Reclamation Services
Precious Metal Plating
Gold plating is available in a full range of colored finishes — white, almond, rose, champagne, and black among them — deposited from carefully controlled baths to meet specific thickness and adhesion requirements.
For high-reliability applications in connectors, contacts, and precision components, industrial hard gold (typically alloyed with cobalt or nickel) delivers the wear resistance and low contact resistance that aerospace, defense, and electronics manufacturers demand.
Complementary processes are available for other precious metals.
- Silver plating remains a go-to for RF components and electrical contacts where high conductivity is critical.
- Rhodium plating provides exceptional hardness and tarnish resistance, commonly specified over silver or white gold for both functional and decorative parts.
- Palladium serves as a cost-effective substitute for gold in connector and electronics applications, with excellent corrosion resistance and deposit stability.
- Platinum plating, while a premium process, is specified where chemical resistance and long service life are non-negotiable — lab instrumentation and specialized industrial components.
Reclamation Services
Precious metal reclamation services recover high-value metals — gold, silver, platinum, palladium, and rhodium — from spent plating solutions, filter media, anodes, rinse waters, and other process waste streams.
Rather than disposing of these materials at a loss, reclamation turns depleted baths and contaminated scrap into recoverable asset value, helping plating and other shops offset raw material costs and maintain tighter control over metal accountability.
The process typically involves collection, assay, and refining — with returns based on verified metal content.

Safe and Secure with A Brite Company
Secure Money Transfers
We prioritize transparency and security at every stage of the transaction process. From receipt acknowledgment through final settlement, each step is fully documented and traceable, ensuring complete visibility into your material’s value. Funds are distributed promptly following assay and refining, with clear statements outlining recovered metal content, fees, and final payout. Our structured process is designed to protect your assets while giving you confidence and peace of mind throughout the transaction lifecycle.
Reliable & Compliant Product Delivery
Our gold cyanide products are delivered with the highest standards of safety, compliance, and consistency. Each shipment is supported by certificates of analysis and handled in accordance with strict regulatory and safety requirements. We work with trusted suppliers and proven logistics partners to ensure secure packaging, proper labeling, and timely delivery—so your operation receives high-purity material exactly when you need it, without disruption.
Precious Metal Reclamation
Our reclamation process is designed to maximize your return while minimizing environmental impact. Using advanced thermal and chemical processing technologies, we recover valuable metals from a wide range of materials—even those with low precious metal content. Our systems are engineered for efficiency, accountability, and sustainability, converting waste streams into valuable commodities while maintaining strict environmental controls. The result is a streamlined process that helps you recover more value with less risk.
