Technologies for creating costume jewellery pieces with high-quality designs, details and finishes.
Solutions for the manufacture of metal costume jewellery
The manufacture of metal costume jewellery combines creativity, precision and production processes capable of faithfully reproducing every detail of the original design. At Coniex, we work with manufacturers, designers and specialist workshops, supplying technical materials that enable the production of costume jewellery pieces with a high level of detail, durability and aesthetic quality.
Our solutions are used in the manufacture of charms, pendants, medallions, brooches, buttons, decorative buckles and all kinds of ornamental components used in fashion accessories and costume jewellery collections.
Through our centrifugal casting (also known as spin casting) and decorative enamelling technologies, we help to optimise every stage of the production process, from mould creation to the final finish of the piece.
SILCODISC silicone moulds for centrifugal casting
The mould is a key element in the production of costume jewellery. The clarity of detail, the consistency of the pieces and the efficiency of the casting process all depend on its quality.
For this application, Coniex has developed SILCODISC, a range of technical silicones for the manufacture of centrifugal casting moulds, specially designed for the production of costume jewellery and decorative metal components.
SILCODISC silicones stand out for:
- great capacity for reproducing fine details
- excellent thermal stability during casting
- high wear resistance
- sufficient flexibility to facilitate demoulding
These properties make it possible to produce complex parts with a high degree of precision and to maintain consistent quality even during high-volume production.

ESMALTEX decorative enamel with epoxy resins
Enamelling is one of the most widely used processes for adding colour, shine and character to costume jewellery. To this end, Coniex has developed the ESMALTEX range: epoxy resins for cold enamelling on metal, specially formulated for decorative applications.
ESMALTEX enamels produce glossy surfaces, intense colours and excellent optical depth – characteristics that are highly prized in costume jewellery and decorative items.
Its main advantages include:
- excellent colour stability
- excellent shine and transparency
- high wear resistance
- bisphenol A-free (BPA-free) formulation
This feature responds to the growing market demand for safer materials that comply with the new regulatory requirements.

Surface solutions to improve the finish of workpieces
The final appearance of a metal component depends largely on the preparation of its surface. Coniex’s Surface division offers solutions that help improve the cleanliness of the metal and optimise its preparation prior to processes such as enamelling or galvanising.
These treatments help to produce more uniform surfaces and improve the aesthetic quality of the final product.

Specialised training in casting and enamelling
As well as supplying technical materials, at Coniex we also run specialist training courses aimed at manufacturers, designers and professionals who wish to learn about or refine their knowledge of jewellery-making processes.
Our courses are practice-oriented and cover the main stages of the production process:
Centrifugal casting courses
Centrifugal casting courses, covering mould-making techniques, the preparation of silicone discs, casting parameters and the optimisation of the production process.
Decorative enamelling courses
Courses in decorative enamelling, focusing on the application of ESMALTEX epoxy resins, filling techniques, finish control and achieving high-quality aesthetic results.
These training courses enable professionals to acquire practical knowledge that can be directly applied to their production process.

Examples of applications in costume jewellery
In this section, we showcase images created using artificial intelligence that illustrate examples of costume jewellery pieces that can be manufactured using our technical solutions.
These images are for guidance only and serve as a source of inspiration for manufacturers and designers, showcasing the different types of applications and finishes possible within the sector.
Coniex, your technical partner in the manufacture of costume jewellery
At Coniex, we work alongside jewellery manufacturers, providing technical materials, specialist advice and solutions tailored to each project.
Our aim is to help improve:
- the definition of the detail
- the efficiency of the production process
- the durability of the moulds
- the final finish of the parts
Optimize your casting process
In centrifugal casting, efficient use of raw materials also helps improve process profitability. Controlled sprue recovery reduces waste and allows part of the metal generated after each casting cycle to be reused.
