ARVAL UK SELECTS AUTOGLASS® TO MINIMISE DOWNTIME & INCREASE EFFICENCY

Autoglass® is proud to have been chosen as the preferred automotive glazing partner to Arval UK, one of the UK’s largest fleet and leasing companies.

The partnership with Autoglass® was a strategic choice driven by the business’ unwavering commitment to innovation, service excellence, glass availability, coverage, and focus on creating efficiencies.

Arval UK manages a fleet of more than 194, 000 vehicles in the UK, with almost 48,000 of which being battery electric.  The business sought a capable and sophisticated, industry-leading partner equipped with best-in-class expertise, tools, training, and technologies to provide customers with an unrivalled service.

The decision was based on Autoglass®’ commitment and dedication to:

  • Get customers back on the road safely and swiftly, minimising downtime and ensuring an exceptional and seamless customer experience
  • Our “repair first” philosophy, which aligns perfectly with Arval’s sustainability focus. This philosophy means that whenever possible, Autoglass® prioritises repairing windscreens over replacement. This approach not only reduces waste, contributing positively to the environment but also offers efficient and convenient solutions for customers.

Shaun Deverell, Head of Aftermarket Networks at Arval UK, expressed confidence in the partnership, stating, “Autoglass® is a market leader in its field and we have confidence that this partnership will continue to benefit our business and our customers. The high customer service feedback we’ve seen via our Net Promoter Score (NPS) YTD for 2024 of 91.7%, reflects the service quality we expect our partners to provide to our customers.

Commenting on the collaboration, Ian Rowlands – Commercial Director, Autoglass® said, “Arval UK is a forward-thinking organisation with a strong commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices. We are excited to be working with Arval, to deliver exceptional service to its customers. Our shared values and goals make this partnership a natural fit.”

Together with other organisations aligned in a desire to improve safety and reduce road collisions, Autoglass® and Arval UK were proud headline sponsors of Brake charity’s Road Safety Week in November 2023. Both businesses are connected in their aim to improve health, safety, and well-being on the road. This activity also underpins their dedication to raising awareness about road safety among all current and future drivers in the UK.

In addition to sponsoring Road Safety Week, Autoglass® was also invited to participate in Arval’s Sustainability and Wellbeing event, engaging with employees, partners and guests to encourage environmentally responsible daily practices. This event further endorsed the commitment of both organisations to their corporate social responsibilities.

Autoglass® and Arval UK look forward to a continued partnership focused on delivering exceptional, responsible and reliable services, while keeping customers at the heart of everything we do.
