SRG Global and its 400,000 sq. ft. Morehead, KY facility, which specializes in conventional injection molding, painting, bright chrome finishing, and assembly, was featured on The History Channel's "Modern Marvels: Chrome."
The program chronicled the history and production methods of chrome, and how the world has come to regard the gleaming product as an essential element for both decorative and practical use. The program told viewers about the complex electroplating process and how workers chrome plate plastic parts, a core capability of SRG Global.

-- Showed viewers a 35,000 square foot treasure trove of chrome at 4 State Trucks in Missouri
-- Took them on the road with some bikers to take a look at how Harley Davidson puts chrome to work both as a decorative surface and a protective covering on engine parts.
