Managing the costs of a car workshop properly allows the workshop to maximise profits by optimising internal resources.
Reducing costs means neither sacrificing the quality of work nor offering sub-standard service. This would lead to negative consequences for the workshop's reputation which, in the long run, would only lead to huge losses.
Reducing costs implies a strategic approach to expenses management, eliminating waste, rationalising processes and maintaining strict control over operational expenditure. This not only helps to preserve profit margins, but also creates a more stable and flexible financial environment that can cope with unforeseen economic challenges.
In order to increase earnings, it is important to improve the car workshop efficiency and to be able to attract and retain a growing customers’ base through high-quality work and impeccable customer service.
A steady increase in revenue not only contributes to profitability, but also enables investment in operational improvements, new technology and staff training, creating a virtuous cycle of growth and innovation.
A healthy environment, the physical and mental workers’ well-being o, and the implementation of state-of-the-art technology are indispensable conditions for boosting productivity and efficiency in a car workshop.
In order to generate significant profits, it is essential that workshop and body shop operators are able to work with maximum precision and speed.
That’s the reason why it is essential to have modern equipment to speed up operations and optimise work activities.
Carrying out and completing more work in the shortest possible time, results in:
State-of-the-art and highly innovative systems are not only functional and intuitive, but also have a positive impact on the company's overall image. These systems help to reduce operating time, thereby increasing overall profitability.
A targeted investment in advanced exhaust gas extraction systems brings significant benefits in terms of both profitability and efficiency for garages and body shops.
This is pretty evident during the maintenance operations, when operation must be carried out with vehicles’ engine running. In these situations, exhaust gases are dispersed into the closed environment, creating a potential health risk.
Removing the exhaust gases, before they can contaminate the surrounding air, is a fundamental requirement. Therefore, the installation of exhaust systems able to capture gases directly from vehicle exhausts is essential.
The most innovative systems include specific nozzles, hoses and powerful extraction systems, which capture the gases and expel them without any risk of dispersion within the workshop.
There are different types of exhaust systems to choose from:
They require a permanent installation, with a network of galvanised pipes that transport the gases outside.
They run under the floor and are not visible once installed: ideal for new garages or body shops.
Extraction tracks on which trolleys or arms slide, they offer flexibility and allow several locations to be served without hindrance. A WORKY example is the GTL Universal Touchless Arm, a sliding trolley on a track with a self-supporting arm suitable for any type of exhaust pipe to eliminate the need for adapters or specific nozzles.
Portable extraction systems without the need for permanent installation, suitable for smaller structures. The Grolly series developed by WORKY is an excellent solution for workshops, historic car museums, private garages and technical rooms.
When considering the implementation of new extraction systems, it is essential to work with competent suppliers who can analyse and understand the company's specific needs. A functional solution not only meets current needs, but is also able to adapt to future challenges, guaranteeing long-term efficiency, worker health protection and a healthy working environment.
WORKY, with its Team of experts, offers support for the design and the implementation of the fumes and gas extraction system, including: integration with existing equipment and building design and a 3D rendering to assess the final appearance.
