“Last year in March, BASF signed the same agreement with JLR for region Europe. This latest agreement has expanded our global footprint and shows the continued trust and commitment to growing the partnership. JLR is also utilizing the latest technologies from Glasurit and R-M to drive growth,” said Hill. “There have been some great examples of teams from JLR and BASF working closely to develop the authorized body shop networks in Europe and identifying high quality repairers that not only meet the high standards and expectations of a premium brand, but also address the geographical challenges. Italy is a very good example as we have seen an increase of over 30% in its authorized network.”
