Case Study: Electroplating Excellence with Bespoke RO Plants

A major electroplating company in the Midlands was facing a common but costly issue: inconsistent plating quality caused by waterborne contaminants. Despite using a basic filtration setup, their bath chemistry was frequently unstable, leading to rework and waste.

The Puretech Solution

After an on-site assessment, we recommended a custom Reverse Osmosis (RO) system. The goals were:

• Reduce TDS to below 20 ppm
• Improve bath stability
• Extend the lifespan of chemicals and rinse tanks

Within 3 weeks, we installed and commissioned the new system. The results:

• Plating consistency improved by over 40%
• Chemical usage dropped by 30%
• Wastewater discharge reduced
• ROI achieved in under 12 months

Why It Worked

Electroplating demands high-purity water to avoid reaction issues, tarnishing, and poor adhesion. Our tailored RO system ensured only ultra-clean water entered the production process.
