Borough Ltd of Southend is building an enviable reputation as one of the foremost chrome platers of plastic for automotive applications. The latest customer to appreciate the quality of Borough’s service is Exotech Plastics Pvt Ltd of Pune in India, a respected plastic moulding company known for its work with some of the biggest names in world car manufacturing.

Exotech found it impossible to match the quality of the chrome plating offered by Borough, so ship all their moulded parts to Southend for plating before the finished components complete their 9,000 mile journey back to India for installation in the new cars.

“sometimes it’s good to know that British manufacturing can still hold it’s own on the world stage, when the belief is we are losing ground on price and technical ability. This proves that the right investment and the right management still make British Industry something to be reckoned with.” said a positive Borough Managing Director – David Coombes.

Borough continue to look for applications for their high quality chrome plating of ABS and the return of a chrome finish to fashionable household goods should provide plenty of opportunity for new business.
