Platina 4The jewelers’ alloy that contains four precious metals

Addressing Consumer Needs

• Starting in 2007, the price of gold began to rise to record-setting levels.

• With no signs of stopping, precious metal prices continued to soar – creating a negative impact on the jewelry industry and consumer demand.

• To address these cost concerns, ABI Precious Metals created a proprietary alloy called Platina 4.

What is Platina 4?

• Platina 4, or P4, is a unique precious metal alloy that incorporates gold, silver, platinum, and palladium. • ABI created the blend to give consumers an inexpensive

alternative to gold jewelry.

What is Platina 4 Made of?

The principle elements in the platina 4 alloy are:

• Silver: 80.2%• Palladium: 6.2%• Gold: .27%• Platinum: .12% • The rest is a proprietary alloy that makes Platina 4

more resistant to corrosion and oxidation.

Advantages of Platina 4 JewelryPlatina 4:

• Looks identical to white gold, but doesn’t require rhodium plating

• Is more scratch resistant than 14k gold

• More tarnish resistant than sterling silver

• Can be easily polished and resized, unlike pure platinum

Cost-Effectiveness of Platina 4• Platina 4 costs about one-third of the price of 14k

gold. • But remember, even though it’s pitched as “gold-like,”

Platina 4 does not qualify as a gold alloy because it contains only a very small amount of gold.

• Gold or not, Platina 4 is an interesting alloy that can be a great choice for either the budget-minded jewelry consumer, or one who wants precious metal jewelry that doesn’t require much maintenance.
