For over 40 years, Valley Plating in Green Bay has been the trusted name in black oxide finishing for machine parts of all shapes and sizes. We work with everything from small screws to large shafts and bars up to 165 inches long. Our specialty is simple: we do black oxide — and we do it right.
Black oxide isn’t just a surface coating — it penetrates the metal, offering a clean, sleek look with virtually no buildup. Whether you’re looking to improve the appearance of your parts or help extend their usability, black oxide can make a difference. It provides a smooth, professional finish that enhances wear performance and makes your parts stand out.
With just three employees, our team is small but mighty. That means you’re not just another number — you’re working directly with people who care about your parts and your deadlines. Most jobs are turned around within one day, and even large orders are typically completed within 1–3 days.
Located just down the road from Lambeau Field, we serve clients throughout Green Bay, Appleton, Neenah, the UP, and even as far as Minnesota and Montana. Whether you’re walking in with a small order or shipping large parts from across the Midwest, we’re ready to help.
