CHELTENHAM AND ROSS ON WYE BASED UK SELECT FLYING HIGH WITH THE KITEMARK®

UK Select based in Cheltenham and Ross On Wye has now gained the prestigious Kitemark at both its sites- setting the high standards that consumers' and fleet managers expect when having their cars repaired. Not all bodyshops are the same: To earn the Kitemark, vehicle body repair shops must prove that they conform to tough new standards set down in PAS 125. These include strict requirements that focus on skills, repair methods, equipment and materials. In addition, workshops must demonstrate that they have repair process management controls in place to monitor activities. All these elements are then assessed by independent BSI inspectors and must meet stringent benchmarks to be awarded the valuable Kitemark by BSI. Therefore a motorist should always look for the Kitemark symbol when choosing a bodyshop. Most drivers don’t realise they can choose where their vehicle is repaired should they be involved in an accident. UK Select started in 1997 at the Ross On Wye site and expanded in July last year to their second site in Cheltenham. They have an experienced team of over 40 staff across both sites- a team of highly trained individuals with many years of practical experience in the automotive body repair field, and enjoy long established relationships with a wide range of customers. Denver Rollings UK Select’s managing director commented: “Gaining the Kitemark at both our sites gives a robust standard which is recognised nationally by insurance companies, work providers and the general public. It took us a year to gain the Kitemark at our Ross On Wye site using this knowledge and experience it enabled us to gain the Kitemark at the Cheltenham branch in just four months “The Kitemark has had a very positive reaction from our staff as it has given them more confidence that the business is moving forward and thinking of the future. The Kitemark certification is a result of our commitment to deliver the highest quality in all areas of the UK Select business.” Looking ahead UK Select are always looking at opportunities if the location and needs of work providers are correct.
