Surface Treatments
RLC have a modern treatment facility for electro-plating and anodising of most metals and alloys used in aerospace manufacturing. This includes a fully equipped laboratory for chemical and metallurgical analysis staffed by experienced chemists - using spectrometry, infrared spectroscopy, spark emission spectroscopy and wet analysis - controlling the processes.
All discharges are controlled and monitored by a modern effluent plant ensuring strict compliance with environmental requirements.
