wear & corrosion resistance.
Celestial offers the full range of bright, satin
and brushed finishes in chrome & nickel, along
with black, brass, gold & bronze.
Our quality control processes are state-of-the-art. They maximize first-run production success &

 Celestial Provides Unparalleled Quality
We have the most advanced, computerized in-line
process controls, & we monitor quality continuously.
Our "closed loop" quality assurance system inspects
all plated pieces for 16 different attributes in real
time; the information is fed into the computer
system for ongoing monitoring. So, problems or trends
are identified - and corrected - quickly and efficiently, for minimal waste
of time or resources.
Our chemistry lab performs 112 wet tests on a daily basis. Process
variables such as chemistry and temperature are also monitored constantly.
Of course, we're ISO/TS 16949: 2009 Certified Co. In short, we do
it right the first time. That keeps our costs low and maximizes our
production efficiency.
Our quality control follows our parts - forever
Plastic parts are audited after 24 hours for the same 16 attributes
that were checked in inspection. This information is fed into the
computer and attached to the original files. Once parts are accepted
by the auditor, a green label is attached. This label and another which
shows the date and shift that the part was plated allows traceability
for the parts in the carton. Our goal is zero defects - based on
specifications agreed upon with our customers.
