Certificate of Conformance & Traceability

Every lot that enters our building gets a traveler that follows it through every tank, every bake, and every inspection. Every order ships with a Certificate of Conformance referencing the exact specification and revision your purchase order invokes, backed by documented process records we retain for your certification package.

In-House Testing & Inspection

Because plating quality cannot be fully judged by looking at a finished part, we verify it. Our on-site laboratories at both plants provide:

Process Control by In-House Chemists

Every tank is analyzed and controlled by our own laboratory staff, not an outside service, so chemistry stays in spec and problems get solved in hours, not weeks. And every operator, inspector, and line leader is trained and certified through Gleco University — when your part runs at Gleco, the person running it is certified to run it.

Instrumented bath analysis

Tank chemistry is measured on our own analytical instruments instead of being shipped to an outside lab, so a bath that drifts is corrected the same shift rather than next week.

Titration and wet chemistry

Standardised reagents sit on the bench for daily titrations. Every tank has a control range and a posted sampling schedule, and results are logged against it.
