Italfimet: Italian excellence for innovative and sustainable electroplating
Quality, innovation and sustainability are the pillars on which Italfimet, a leader in the Italian galvanic industry, is founded. Founded in 1992, the Tuscan company stands out for being the only one in Italy to offer a complete and integrated service that combines chemistry, plants and electronics in a single supply chain, guaranteeing tailor-made solutions for the fashion, leather, jewellery, eyewear and metal accessory sectors.
Thanks to its three internal divisions - Plating, Plants and Electro - Italfimet is able to cover every phase of galvanic treatment. From design to after-sales, the company offers an integrated and modular approach, with a strong orientation towards process customisation and environmental sustainability.
The Plating Division produces galvanic baths based on gold, silver, palladium, ruthenium and rhodium, as well as technologies for electroforming gold and silver. The Plants Division develops customised galvanic plants and closed-loop technologies for the recovery and reuse of precious metals. Finally, the Electro Division produces state-of-the-art current rectifiers that ensure uniformity and quality finishes.
One of Italfimet's distinctive strengths is its constant research and development, which has led to the filing of patents and the formulation of innovative solutions such as P4600® (pure palladium galvanic coating), Dermogold® (nickel and cobalt free light gold), RAEP® (anti-pinch effect rectifier) and electroforming for assembled chains up to 1.5 metres long.
Commitment to sustainability is another fundamental pillar for Italfimet: the company has developed plants for the recovery and refining of precious metals to be reintroduced into the production cycle, and has developed dermocompatible galvanic baths free of toxic substances such as chromium, nickel and cyanide.
With a vision projected towards Galvanica 4.0, Italfimet confirms itself as a point of reference for those looking for a reliable, technologically advanced and environmentally aware partner, capable of combining aesthetics, performance and responsibility.
