Combined with years of high quality work in a variety of industries, we’re known for our on-time delivery of parts that are expertly processed with finishing, plating, and coating services.
Our extensive experience in metal finishing can be traced back to its founding in 1959. Back then, the company’s one shop tumbled stamping to remove burrs and to smooth the surface of parts, thus improving their “Microfinish” (hence the name of the company). Microfinish developed as a complete metal finishing services company further with our entry into zinc plating and our relocation to a larger location in Berkeley. To accommodate increased customer demand for high quality finishing services, our facility has expanded from the original 4,500 square feet a total of three times. Today the building offers 20,000 square feet which houses two automated lines and one barrel zinc plating line.
