Brilliant solutions. Sustainably conceived.
Making metal shine requires more than technology. We combine over three decades of electroplating expertise with state-of-the-art equipment – for components that perform where it matters. Nationwide.
Five processes. One competence.
Computer-controlled systems, three decades of experience – for surfaces that deliver on their promise.
Zinc plating
Reliably protects steel from corrosion – through a zinc layer that acts as a sacrificial anode and preserves the base material long-term.
Zinc & zinc-iron black
Technically strong, visually distinctive – black passivation combines corrosion protection with an elegant finish.
Zinc-nickel
Surpasses conventional zinc by a multiple – the first choice for salt spray, extreme temperatures, and tight tolerances.
Aluminum pickling-passivation
Removes oxides and contaminants – ideal foundation for welding, bonding, or painting.
Nickel plating
Hard, smooth, chemically resistant, and elegantly lustrous – for components with the highest tribological and representative demands.
Trust is the hardest material we know.
“Fairness, respect, and genuine collaboration – for us, that’s not a marketing brochure, it’s company culture.”
Since 1992, we have been refining metallic surfaces in the heart of Thuringia – for customers who don’t do things by halves.
Galvanotechnik Jens Holzapfel GmbH stands for what has become rare in German medium-sized businesses: personal responsibility, technical depth, and the reliability of a family company that doesn’t make its reputation dependent on quarterly figures.
Our customers from the automotive, mechanical engineering, furniture, and electronics industries appreciate not only the quality of our coatings – they appreciate that they get Jens Holzapfel on the phone, not a hotline.
Brilliance is not a coincidence – it’s experience.
Electroplating is precision work. Those who truly understand processes don’t just deliver surfaces – they deliver reliability.
30 years in the process – not beside it.
Material knowledge, bath chemistry, reaction times – you don’t learn that from books. At Holzapfel, this knowledge resides in the team, not in the manual. That makes the difference when things get tight.
Research that flows into practice.
In active projects with the Fraunhofer Institute and TU Braunschweig, we are developing tomorrow’s coating solutions – and implementing them for our customers today.
Standards are our home turf.
Whether factory standard, automotive specification, or ISO requirement – we know the rules of your industry. No lengthy coordination rounds, no unpleasant surprises at goods receiving.
Small or large series: same care.
Computer-controlled systems ensure reproducible quality regardless of batch size. Whether initial sample or continuous delivery – every part is treated as if it were the first.
Grow with us.
At Holzapfel, you don’t work for a company – you help shape it. Flat hierarchies, genuine responsibility, and a team that stands together.
Whether career starter or experienced professional: we offer you a secure position in a family company with over 30 years of history – and a future we shape together.
