Our company was founded in 1977 by S. A. Muthusamy MIE, with a focus on manufacturing stone crushers. Over time, as the demand for metal finishing jobs increased, we established GECO Chrome in 2016 to provide specialized hard chrome plating services for a range of components.
At GECO Chrome, we use electroplating to coat electrically conductive objects with a thin layer of metal, specifically chromium. This process is highly precise and provides superior results. We use the highest quality electroplating equipment and chemicals to ensure that our clients receive the best possible service.

Hard chrome plating is a widely used surface finishing process in many industries, including aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing. However, the process of hard chrome plating can have negative impacts on the environment and human health because of the use of toxic chemicals and high energy consumption. Therefore, sustainability in hard chrome plating is a crucial issue that needs to be addressed by the industry.
Adequate PPE should be provided to all employees working in the hardchrome plating area. This typically includes safety goggles or face shields, chemical-resistant gloves, aprons or lab coats, and appropriate footwear. PPE helps protect against chemical splashes, skin contact with hazardous substances, and other potential hazards.
Hardchrome plating involves the use of various chemicals, some of which may release harmful fumes or gases. Proper ventilation systems should be in place to control and remove these fumes from the work area, ensuring a safe breathing environment. Local exhaust ventilation (LEV) systems and fume hoods are commonly used to capture and remove airborne contaminants.
Hardchrome plating involves the use of hazardous chemicals, such as chromic acid. Employees should receive appropriate training on the safe handling, storage, and disposal of these chemicals. Safety data sheets (SDS) should be readily available for all chemicals used in the process, and proper chemical labeling and storage practices should be followed.
Adequate measures should be in place to respond to potential emergencies or accidents, such as chemical spills or fires. This includes having spill containment kits readily available, fire extinguishers properly maintained and located, and clear evacuation plans and procedures. Regular drills and training sessions should be conducted to ensure that all employees are aware of the emergency protocols.
Regular maintenance and inspection of equipment used in hardchrome plating are crucial for identifying and addressing potential safety hazards. This includes checking the integrity of tanks, ensuring proper grounding of electrical equipment, and inspecting ventilation systems for any blockages or malfunctions. Employees should be trained to report any equipment issues promptly.
