What we do

One source for every finish

Most finishers do one thing. Gleco runs plating, anodizing, coatings and passivation lines in the same buildings — so multi-process parts ship from one supplier, under one quality system, on one certification package.

Electroplating

Rack and barrel capacity from prototype quantities to production volume, to ASTM, AMS and MIL specifications.

Zinc — alkaline & chloride
Zinc-nickel alloy
Nickel — bright, sulfamate, electroless
Tin, silver, gold, cadmium

Anodizing & Passivation

Aluminum anodizing and stainless passivation with in-house chemistry control and full traceability.

Type II sulfuric anodize
Type III hardcoat
Chem film to MIL-DTL-5541
Citric & nitric passivation, AMS 2700

Masked aluminum machined parts ready for coating

Coatings & Finishing

Organic coatings and specialty finishing that run alongside plating, so plated-and-coated work never leaves the building.

Powder coating & industrial wet paint
CARC and MIL-spec painting
Cerakote, Teflon, EMI shielding
