2025-02-22

At Strong Lighting, our 30+ member team has crafted premium indoor Chandeliers and Pendants, Wall Lamps, Table Lamps and Floor Lamps since 2015, delivering 100+ 40HQ containers annually to Europe and US brand wholesalers, DIY chain stores, hospitality projects. Today, we reveal how our signature electroplating process ensures hardware withstands decades of use while retaining its luster.

1. Mirror Polishing

Every metal component (arms, chains, joints) undergoes 360° mechanical polishing. Our workers use microfiber buffing wheels to eliminate microscopic scratches, achieving a jewelry-grade base for plating.

2. Triple-Cleanse System

A patented ultrasonic bath removes oils and dust using eco-friendly solutions. Components are rinsed in water to guarantee 99.9% purity before plating.

3. Surface Activation

A mild acidic dip prepares metals for optimal plating adhesion. This 90-second treatment creates a microscopically porous texture without damaging delicate brass or iron alloys.

4. Precision Plating

In our automated plating tanks, metals receive uniform coatings:

Gold/Silver Finish: 8-12 micron layers for vintage-inspired designs.

Gunmetal/Gun Black: Matte textures popular in modern hospitality projects.

Rose Gold: Custom blends for luxury residential clients.

5. Post-Plating Rinse

High-pressure water jets remove residual plating agents, ensuring zero chemical residue. Our closed-loop water system recycles 95% of resources.

6. Artistic Texturing

Sand Blasting: Creates rustic, industrial finishes using 200-mesh eco-grit.

Gold Highlighting: Artisans hand-brush 24K gold accents on edges and filigrees.


7.Protective Sealing

A transparent nano-coating is applied via electrostatic spray. This FDA-approved layer prevents tarnishing in humid coastal environments and resists fingerprint marks.


8. Rapid Curing

Infrared drying tunnels remove moisture in 15 minutes at 60°C. Components are cooled to room temperature under certified clean room conditions.
