Autoglaze – Keeping Your Fleet Chip-Free

Aug. 3, 2009 - PRLog -- With the doom and gloom of the current economic crisis set to continue, Autoglaze, the UK’s leading windscreen repair specialist, is urging British businesses dependent on their fleets of vans to treat small chips as soon as possible, in a bid to help keep down costs and to prevent further, more extensive damage to windscreens.

Gareth Kilburn, from the firm, which specialises in auto glass and chipped windscreen repairs, said, “The majority of screen breakages start with a small chip and research has recently shown that one in four vans are currently being driven with a chipped windscreen. These chips need to be repaired as soon as possible and it is up to businesses to encourage its employees to report chips and cracks.”

Businesses could consider weekly regular fleet inspections, allowing for any chips to be identified as early as possible. Drivers could also be asked to perform compulsory windscreen checks on a daily basis to further minimise the risk of windscreen damage.

Mr Kilburn added, “It is very simple – you can either get the chip repaired or should the chip be unleft, you can spend money on replacing the windscreen entirely. In the current economic climate, businesses are obviously thinking about ways in which costs can be reduced and this is one such way.”

Autoglaze offers an on-site windscreen repair service to all businesses throughout the UK, and their teams visit offices and factory premises on a regular basis. During their visits, they are able to arrange all contact and paperwork, minimising disruption to the business workflow while also minimising the risk of cracked windscreens.
