Technoplating Group

The company started as one of the first chrome plating businesses in the Netherlands. What began as a small-scale operation quickly grew into a well-respected name in the industry. With decades of experience, craftsmanship and a strong focus on quality and innovation Harchroom Nijkerk BV has established a solid reputation within the Dutch industrial sector.

Technoplating Nijkerk takes over the operations of Hardchroom Nijkerk BV continuing its legacy in chrome plating. With a fresh vision and renewed energy, Technoplating Nijkerk builds on decades of expertise. The company sets its sights on innovation, quality and long-term growth in the surface treatment industry.

Technoplating Nijkerk takes over Plating Solutions in Lelystad establishing Technoplating Lelystad. Setting up a new facility in Nijkerk proved challenging due environmental regulations, prompting the strategic move to expand elsewhere. With this step, the company strengthens its capacity and broadens its reach in the surface treatment market.

To expand its services Technoplating establishes Technocladding Europe, focusing on advanced surface technologies. A significant investment is made in a high-tech EHLA laser cladding machine. This innovative, environmentally friendly technique reflects the company’s commitment to sustainable and future-ready solutions.

Technoplating Nijkerk, Technoplating Lelystad and Technocladding Europe merge to form the Technoplating Group. This strategic fusion streamlines operations, strengthens our brand and enhances collaboration across all locations. With a continued commitment to quality, we are your one-stop partner for all surface coatings and mechanical treatments.
