Industrial Metal Finishing Solutions

for High-Performance Components

SAAYMAN DANKS ELECTROPLATING provides engineered metal finishing services designed to improve the durability, performance, appearance, and reliability of components used across South Africa’s industrial sectors. Every coating is applied through an ISO-certified quality system and validated using in-house laboratory testing to ensure the finish performs to specification, every time.

Whether you require corrosion protection for automotive parts, controlled conductivity for electrical terminals, or aesthetic finishes for commercial hardware, we deliver finishes that strengthen the products your customers rely on.

Protective & Corrosion-Resistant Coatings

Engineered to withstand exposure to chemicals, moisture, road salt, friction, and other demanding conditions. Performance-verified coatings trusted by industrial manufacturers.

Zinc - High Build

High-build provides a significantly thicker protective layer for parts exposed to harsher conditions.

Zinc - High Build

Zinc - Yellow

Yellow zinc plating is a staple in the automotive and agricultural industries due to its superior corrosion resistance.

Zinc - Yellow

Kalgard - Tin

Kalgard Tin plating offers excellent "wetting" for soldering and a non-toxic surface for sensitive environments.
