50+ Customers. Zero Lost to Delivery. That's APF.
A 28-person team running 20,000 sq ft of automated plating — and picking up the phone when you call.
Our Story
Advance Plating & Finishing grew to become West Michigan's largest zinc nickel trivalent plater one deadline at a time. Not one missed. Not one customer lost to a late shipment. That track record isn't a marketing claim — it's the reason 50+ manufacturers trust us with their production parts.
Two fully automated plating lines. 1–3 day standard turnaround. Same-day rush when your line is down. While other platers push lead times and stop returning calls, we invested in capacity and people who answer the phone.
Every one of our customers came through word of mouth. Zero marketing spend. When your plater delivers on time, hits spec, and picks up when you call — people talk.
