Higher Electrolating Profits
Implementing Green Technology

If it’s lower operating costs and higher profits you want, it’s time to join forces with Electroplating Technologies, Ltd. ETL has developed the highest level of efficiency in electroplating sheet metal technology with the lowest carbon footprint.

What Our Clients
Are Saying
"The results we’ve experienced with HydroJet are outstanding. We’ve essentially doubled, and even tripled, the capacity of our plating operations by utilizing ETL's custom-tailored technology. The expanded capacity will enable us to expand our markets."

James G. Belmonti,
Chairman & CEO
Precision Plating Company, Inc.

ETL’s technology is solely applicable to continuous plating of flat rolled sheet metal, in coil form. It is not applicable to batch plating, i.e. “rack & barrel” plating. ETL has developed the most efficient process for plating sheet metal with the lowest carbon footprint. The proprietary and patented process is called: HydroJet®, a combination of hydromechanical and hydrodynamic plating. This system has proven capable of achieving the following results, based upon hundreds of millions of pounds of electroplated sheet metal product produced and shipped by ETL’s licensees:

Two to three times the plating rate vs. conventional plating processes.

Double to even triple the line speed vs. conventional electroplating processes.

• Reduced labor costs by 50% or more.

Lower energy costs—input from rectifiers cut by 20% per unit product produced.

Lower environmental costs related to more efficient process which generates less effluent by-products which makes the HydroJet process much greener than competing technologies with its LOW CARBON FOOTPRINT. It is apparent that “Cap & Trade” will be implemented worldwide; and users of HydroJet will be able to sell their carbon credits from implementing HydroJet in their existing plating operations..

These remarkable results are supported by the relatively LOW COST TO RETROFIT an existing plating line with ETL’s technology. The payback for such conversions is often less than six months, with ongoing savings and higher profits thereafter.

How affordable is our efficiency? The cost of implementing ETL’s technology and services package is about one-hundredth as much as other high efficiency systems used for continuous plating of sheet metal!

The word must be getting out: ETL’s technology has been featured in 33 Metal Producing, American Metal Market, Iron and Steel Engineering, Plating and Surface Finishing and several other industry publications.
