EUROTecniche, an Italian pioneer in electroplating and surface finishing solutions, has been at the forefront of innovation for over two decades. At IIJS Premiere 2025, the brand showcased its latest eco-friendly machinery and reaffirmed its strong focus on the Indian market. We spoke to Viral Khandwala, Director, EUROTecniche India, about the brand’s IIJS journey, evolving tech, and the value of platforms like IGJME.
Tell us something about EUROTecniche and your key areas of expertise.
EUROTecniche has been a trusted name in surface treatment and finishing solutions for over 20 years. Our headquarters in Italy focuses on the design, production, and global distribution of both manual and automatic galvanic systems—all proudly made in Italy. We are specialists in precious electroplating chemistry, galvanic plating plants, ceramic enamels, and electro-polishing machines.
In India, EUROTecniche provides tailored solutions for the jewellery manufacturing sector. Our core strength lies in adapting our cutting-edge Italian technology to meet the specific demands of Indian goldsmiths, silversmiths, and jewellery manufacturers. Over the years, we’ve also expanded into gold and silver refining systems and water treatment for industrial use—offering clients an integrated, eco-conscious approach to production.
What brings you back to IGJME and IIJS 2025?
IIJS, and specifically the IGJME has always been the go-to platform for innovation in the jewellery manufacturing space. We’ve been part of this show for 15 years now, and it’s remarkable how it has evolved.
The IGJME segment has consistently helped us introduce new products, interact with end-users, and demonstrate our technology in real time. It’s not just a trade show; it’s where the industry’s future gets tested, validated, and launched.
What new technologies are you introducing at this year’s edition?
This year, we are particularly excited about our live demonstrations of Ceramic Enamels and Nano Ceramic Lacquer. These are available in a wide range of colours and finishes, specifically developed to enhance the aesthetic appeal of modern jewellery while ensuring durability and resistance.
The Nano Ceramic Lacquer, in particular, is creating a lot of buzz—it allows jewellers to create vivid, wear-resistant finishes without compromising the integrity of the base material. It’s a perfect example of how innovation in surface chemistry is redefining jewellery design.
How has participating in IGJME benefitted your business over the years?
One of the most tangible benefits has been the increasing visibility and interaction we’ve gained with both established manufacturers and newer boutique operations. Over the years, the organisers have responded to the needs of machinery and allied sectors by allocating more space and better booth positioning, making it easier for us to engage meaningfully with prospective clients.
We’ve used IGJME not only to launch products but also to receive real-time feedback, which helps us refine our offerings and build long-term partnerships.
Your solutions go beyond just plating and enamelling. Can you elaborate on that?
Absolutely. While we’re best known for our electroplating systems, EUROTecniche also offers a complete line of gold and silver recovery and refining systems—critical for sustainability and cost-efficiency in the jewellery industry.
We’ve also been actively involved in industrial water treatment solutions, helping manufacturers map and optimise their water cycles to reduce environmental impact and ensure regulatory compliance. This holistic approach—covering everything from surface treatment to waste recovery—sets us apart in the market.
Any closing thoughts on IIJS 2025 and what lies ahead?
IIJS continues to grow in scope, sophistication, and global relevance. Every year, we discover new clients, explore new partnerships, and gather insights that help us innovate further.
We’re grateful to the organisers of IGJME for recognising the needs of machinery suppliers like us and offering a better, more expansive platform to present our technologies. It’s events like these that keep our industry vibrant and future-ready.
