Our decision to focus on a limited number of processes allows us to explore each technical variable in depth and guarantee a level of stability, repeatability and control that is difficult for more generalist players to achieve. We work with mechanical workshops that produce thousands of parts per batch, where consistent results are essential to ensure continuity in production cycles.
The group's headquarters are located in Cremona, in northern Italy, in a strategic position close to Milan and the region's main logistics hubs. This location allows us to efficiently serve the French region of Haute-Savoie, where we already collaborate with several companies in the bar turning and fluid component manufacturing sector. Our experience in this area also enables us to offer support in choosing the most reliable and fastest carriers, optimising delivery times and methods.
Our expertise is based on in-depth knowledge of chemical nickel plating (https://www.microncoatings.it/fr/nickelage-chimique/) and hard anodising (https://www.microncoatings.it/fr/anodisation/) processes.
One of the things that sets us apart is our in-house formulation of chemical preparations. We do not use standard commercial products, but develop the solutions used in our processes in-house. This is fundamental because, with our solid chemical know-how, we are not simply applicators: we fully understand and control the behaviour of the baths, the reactions and the variables that determine the quality of the treatment. This expertise allows us to adapt the process to the specific characteristics of materials, alloys and geometries, ensuring more stable and predictable results, even on complex or sensitive components.
Our next-generation facilities ensure constant monitoring of process parameters such as times, temperatures, concentrations and movements, guaranteeing consistency from one batch to the next. To support production, our in-house laboratory (https://www.microncoatings.it/fr/qualite/) performs bath analyses, thickness measurements, hardness checks and analyses in the event of any anomalies. The combination of automation and chemical expertise ensures consistent results over time, which is essential for structured industrial production.
Our approach resolves typical issues encountered by other workshops: incorrect nickel plating on brass, visual defects, pitting, dents, or variations in thickness. Through in-depth analysis of pre-treatments, precise definition of attachment points and the implementation of dedicated controls, we have succeeded in permanently eliminating the non-conformities that our customers usually encountered with other suppliers.
The benefits most appreciated by production departments include:
Micron Coatings Group combines the flexibility of a family business with the solidity of an industrial structure. Our team brings together chemists, process engineers and specialist technicians, with a focus on problem solving and continuous improvement. Our ability to respond quickly, analyse problems from a technical perspective and propose targeted solutions is one of the aspects most appreciated by our French and Italian customers.
Our working method includes co-engineering activities and technical support:
This collaboration allows us to design the treatment even before production begins, preventing defects and ensuring stability from the very first batch.
At SIMODEC, we will be presenting our solutions dedicated to bar turning manufacturers, as well as to the valve, fitting, hydraulic and automotive sectors. For these applications, precision, uniformity and repeatability are not objectives: they are daily requirements.
Micron Coatings Group is the ideal partner for those seeking stable, repeatable surface treatments designed for structured industrial production.
