Enhanced capacity and turnkey solutions set to benefit valued clientele.
HOUSTON, Nov. 15, 2023 — H&M Plating Company, a renowned leader on the Gulf Coast in hard chrome and HVOF since its establishment in 1971, proudly announces the successful completion of a series of strategic acquisitions in the plating and precision grinding sectors over the past five years. H&M Plating Co., Inc. has been at the forefront of delivering reconditioning processes, employing electroplated hard industrial chrome, sulfamate nickel, HVOF, Plasma, Electric Wire Arc thermal spray coatings, cylindrical grinding & honing, phosphate coating, and media blasting services to industries spanning oil, petrochemical, marine, hydraulic, food, and manufacturing.
With the acquisition of Schumacher Co., Dixie Electroplating, Mirror Industries, and Southcoast Grinding, H&M Plating Company now boasts a remarkable 170,000-square-foot facility encompassing precision grinding machinery and industrial hard chrome, electroless nickel capabilities, offering an all-encompassing turnkey service for its esteemed clients. All divisions are ISO 9001:2015 certified and the Schumacher and Dixie locations are ISO 14001:2015.
Gary Hamby, CEO of H&M Plating Company, expressed his enthusiasm about these acquisitions, stating, “Our company has consistently delivered exceptional service to our customers for several decades, and over the past few years, the opportunity to acquire companies with outstanding reputations and integrate them into the H&M family has been a dream come true. With supply chain challenges and a market marked by higher interest rates, many companies across the United States are increasingly inclined towards machinery refurbishment rather than purchasing new equipment. We firmly believe that the future in this sector holds great promise.”
