What it is and what it does. White bronze (copper-tin) brightener is the additive system for white bronze plating, the nickel-free white finish that is used to replace bright nickel on skin-contact hardware.
- Pale blue to green-tinted clear liquid, dosed into the copper-tin electrolyte.
- White bronze gives a white deposit without nickel, which makes it the standard option for hardware that must meet nickel-release rules.
- The copper to tin ratio in the deposit sets the colour, and the additive system controls the balance and the brightness.

| Control | X-ray or colorimetric check of the copper to tin ratio, plus the Hull cell |
| Post-treatment | A clear topcoat is normally applied to protect the colour |

- Current bath: supplier, TDS and working concentration.
- Process: rack or barrel, temperature, current density.
- Substrate: zinc alloy, steel, brass or ABS.
- Complaint: the defect you are trying to solve, with photos.
| What you send | What you get back |
|---|---|
| Part drawing or sample | Compatibility check and recommended settings |
| Output target per shift | Capacity, tank or rack count, manpower |
| Finish spec with tolerance | Control points and acceptance tests |

Buying questions we answer most
Is the SDS available before we order?
Yes. SDS and COA are issued per lot. Tell us the destination country so the SDS is supplied in the required format and language.
Can we get a trial quantity first?
Yes. Trial packs are quoted separately and shipped with the analytical method, so your lab can verify the material against the current bath before switching.
What packing and shelf life should we expect?
Standard export packing in drums or jerry cans with inner liner. Shelf life depends on the product - typically 12 months in a closed container, stored away from heat and direct sunlight.
How is it shipped - is it dangerous goods?
Some products are classed as dangerous goods and need the correct UN packing and documentation. We confirm the classification and the shipping route before quoting freight.
Can you match a competitor's additive?
Send the TDS and a bath sample. We compare the operating window and analytical method, then run a Hull cell panel before recommending a replacement.
