Course description
Sustainability is now part of life, but how can bodyshops become more sustainable? This course is constructed to demystify sustainability by teaching easy to understand information and practical actions that can be tailored to any size of Bodyshop operation.
Sustainability It doesn’t always mean additional cost, but it does mean change. The course focuses change around 3 core pillars – Product, Process, Equipment – with each being explored in detail to provide opportunities for a Bodyshop to make data driven decisions for both the short and long term. The course will also draw from real life examples, key trends and problems facing the industry around sustainability covering themes such as waste, Co2, VOCs, plastic, and replacement parts. By understanding this
context, each main area across the end-to-end repair process will then be analysed in terms of investment, cost and saving potential. The areas that will be explored by using the bodyshops own pre-attendance collected data and overlaid with our 3 core pillars, include:
- Masking
- Priming
- Paint Cups
- Plastic Repair
- Paint Platforms
- Spraybooths
- Can Crushers
- Dust Extraction
- Compressors
The course is highly interactive consisting of both classroom and practical learning in the onsite Bodyshop Training Centre. Before attending the course, the attendee will be required to compile a series of defined data points and operational information about their Bodyshop. This data will allow maximum relevancy, application, and customisation throughout the course.Post course registration, an online link to access the template to capture the information will be sent.
