About Us

Valley Plating is a family owned and operated, 15,000 sq. ft., plating business located in Rock Valley, Iowa. Brothers Mike and Steve founded Valley Plating in 2011 because they realized with how many industrial businesses in the area we were missing this huge opportunity to offer rust-preventative plating finishes. We've hit the ground running with many companies giving a good word on our excellent finishing ability. We started out with our single main line running racked and barreled parts through zinc and yellow zinc in January of 2012. Since then we've split our barrel and rack line, added a black oxide and udylite line, as well as automated our main line. These are huge additions for Valley Plating and as of the end of 2020 we have now grown to 5 finishing options! Along with growing our capital we have had to employ more people. We started out with just 5 employees in 2012 but have now grown to 15. At Valley Plating we have passion and pride for what we do and it couldn't be possible without our fantastic customers.
