Need vacuum metallizing service to "Chrome" our plastic

We are a plastic injection molder in Vancouver, Canada, looking to introduce a line of "chromed or brushed chrome", plastic paper dispensers. We currently manufacture the dispensers, and we would like to find a company that can do a secondary application and chrome the dispensers for us.

I am from an automobile electronic company in NOIDA, INDIA.

For our EMI shielding requirement, we need a company which can help us to metallize our plastic housing of PC/ABS Blend, only from inside. Suggested processes will be Electroless coating, Electrolytic coating, Conductive Paint and Vaccum Metallizing.
