Ageas recently hosted a successful sustainable motor repairs workshop, with plans to make it a regular feature at solution centers. The event gathered 40 attendees from firms specializing in green parts, repair-over-replace training, and number plate recycling.
Stephen Linklater, a director at Ageas, emphasized the importance of using green parts in vehicle repairs and expressed pride in the progress made towards integrating them into the repair process. The workshop aimed to encourage participants to explore further opportunities to reduce the environmental impact of vehicle repairs.
Feedback from attendees was positive, with Gary Mackinnon from Jerkins & Pain commending the workshop for highlighting sustainability opportunities.
