Rapid Repair Network has reported that it has reduced its carbon footprint to just 40% of that of a traditional bodyshop.
The business, which delivers same-day mobile repair services, has worked with ECA Business Energy to enhance its sustainability credentials.
As the only PAS 2060-certified and BSI10125-accredited mobile repair business, it prioritises customer convenience and environmental responsibility through IMI-accredited technicians able to carry out a wide range of repairs on site.
This reduces the need for additional trips and minimises energy consumption.
Meanwhile, the company also operates self-powered repair vans equipped with cutting-edge battery technology that generates sufficient energy for up to two days of repairs.
Matthew Stansfield, head of commercial for Rapid Repair Network, said: “We work with eco-friendly suppliers, utilise water-based paints and environmentally safe materials, and actively measure and offset our emissions. Every aspect of our service is built to uphold our commitment to the planet.”
Steve Silverwood from ECA Business Energy said: “Our final report demonstrating Rapid Repair Network only use 40% of the carbon footprint of a bodyshop on a like-for-like repair is astonishing, this approach is certainly an attractive option from a carbon reduction perspective where appropriate.”
