The process of coating the surface of a conducting material with a metal. During the process, the surface to be covered acts as a cathode in an electrolytic cell, and the metal that is to cover it acts as an anode. The electroplating process is also called electro-deposition, as it’s the process in which one metal is deposited over the other and it’s a thin layer of the metal.
Electroplating changes the physical properties of the object and with the expansion of the electronic industry, the demand for electroplating is expected to rise in the upcoming years. The major advantages of electroplating are expended protection from consumption, wear, and scraped spots, electrical conductivity, decreased rubbing, surface consistency, and improved bond properties of materials for painting or covering.

Also, plastic is used to develop lightweight arrangements. Additionally, the use of plastic for plating the metal enhances its appearance and gives electrical conductivity to a non-conductive plastic surface. This helps the electroplating market to grow and this was an overview of the market for Electroplating.
By forming a protective layer, electroplating reduces friction and halts surface oxidation. The surface is protected against abrasion and wear with a thin layer of strong metal covering. When steel is applied to a non-metallic surface, the object's surface properties change. An occasional metallic coating is applied to components to change their look in addition to offering wear resistance, corrosion protection, and abrasion resistance. Additionally, cheap metals can be electroplated to mimic higher-quality metals. More than ever, electroplating is being used in the automotive, aircraft, electronics, leisure, and agricultural industries. As a result, growth in the global electroplating market is predicted throughout the period.
The market for electroplating is being driven by the automobile industry's growing need for the process. Using all of the zinc-to-gold electroplating equipment available, the automotive industry is probably the one that uses electroplating technology the most.

Each valuable and non-precious plated component is used by the electrical and electronics industry to improve the product's electrical conductivity, wear resistance, solderability, and corrosion resistance for a variety of end-use applications. Furthermore, a great deal of money has been invested by many businesses in the production of digital goods. According to the article by GSMA, By the end of 2019, 1.2 billion people subscribed to mobile services across China. This accounts for 82% of the region’s population.
(Source:https://www.gsma.com/solutions-and-impact/connectivity-for-good/mobile-economy/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/ME-China-2020.pdf). This was about the increasing demand for electronic goods leading to a rise in the electroplating market.
• For instance, according to the article by EIN Presswire, the electroplating market is growing due to the growing demand for the electronic goods market. The Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association, consumer electronics production in Japan reached $213.39 million in May 2023, up from $155.79 million in January 2023.
Certain advancements are being made to improve the nature of electroplating and expand the market. The sectors for ornamental electroplated nickel or chromium plating are expected to grow the demand for superior erosion execution of embellishing multi-facet in-car boosting plating. Additionally, the electroplating process also produces hazardous wastewater which comprises harmful metals in it. According to the article by Science Direct the end of 2021, there were more than 10,000 electroplating plants and more than 5000 electroplating production lines in China, to manage the wastewater produced by the electroplating industry.
(Source:https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S030147972302323X).
The growing problem of hazardous substances produced by metal finishing procedures, and the potential to promote optional clean innovation are predicted to restrain the growth of the electroplating market trends.
• For instance, according to the article by Science Direct, china discharges approximately 400 million tons of wastewater containing heavy metals every year, the proportion of electroplating wastewater treated by chemical methods in China is approximately 41%, while in Japan, the proportion is as high as 85%.
COVID-19 affected the market in a negative way the market of electroplating. During the pandemic, the position of enterprises like metal and hardware dropped.
