A personal welcome from David Epner -

Epner Technology is a high-tech, precious metal and specification electroplating company. We offer a broad range of plating technology, with an emphasis on products for the aerospace, defense, medical, and semiconductor industries.

My father and uncle started the business in 1910 to plate and repair jewelry. We've grown a great deal in size and technical sophistication since then, but we're still a family business.

Our emphasis now is on top quality specification plating for science and industry. Our web site is designed for the engineer. There's a lot here to see and learn, but we also urge you to talk to us by phone. You'll be talking to one of our owners, not a salesman who tells you how much plating involves "black magic". We can advise you, or help you set up or refine a specification for your plating need.

We believe that the only "dumb question" is the one that isn't asked..We're at 800-82EPNER, or f718-782-5948, and we'd like to hear from you.

Lastly, to get a real sense of who we are, check our short "Mandatory Mission Statement", and keep your sense of humor.
