Raising the bar for sustainable operations, the Volvo Cars dealer, Swedish Auto which is part of the vast Sime Darby Motors group has now started operations for Volvo Cars accident repairs at their Centralised Body and Paint Centre located in Bukit Jelutong.
This facility was just recently accredited with the Volvo Certified Damage Repair Centre (VCDR) standard. Ensuring the highest quality for body repair and paint services, the world-class VCDR standard ensures that sustainable technology and state-of-the-art processes are integrated within the facility to minimize environmental impact and promote sustainable energy consumption.
The VCDR standard involves the use of a state-of-the-art body repair system and advanced tools, including a fast and highly accurate 3D sensor-equipped measuring system. An efficient paint booth setup was also put in place, creating a well-ventilated and dust-free environment. This will consistently provide the best outcome and finishing for Volvo cars.
Jeffrey Gan, Managing Director of Retail and Distribution of Sime Darby Motors Malaysia, commented, “This is part of our dedicated efforts to continuously unlock value for our customers.
By integrating the VCDR standard at our Sime Darby Motors Centralised Body and Paint facility, this supports our commitment to good Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) practices, while ensuring that we provide world-class end-to-end services for Volvo cars.”
