Solera and Axalta partner together to
accurately calculate CO2 emissions per vehicle repair.
Solera, the global leader in vehicle lifecycle management, today
announced a strategic partnership with Axalta (NYSE: AXTA), a
leading global supplier of liquid and powder coatings. Through this
strategic partnership, Axalta’s conventional and Fast Cure Low
Energy (FCLE) refinish paint systems will be integrated into
Solera’s Sustainable Estimatics platform, enabling Axalta Customers
to analyze their CO2 emissions per repair, considering repair
methods (repair versus replace), paint application process, and
drying conditions.
By partnering with Solera, Axalta is the first refinish paint
manufacturer to provide the data to accurately calculate the CO2
emissions of products and processes used during the repair rather
than general industry averages. Under the BELEAF umbrella, Axalta
provides high performing eco-conscious products, innovative tools
and optimal resources to help body shops minimize their
environmental footprint while contributing to their business’
success. Solera Sustainable Estimatics for Paint is a new resource
that highlights Axalta’s commitment to sustainability and the
BELEAF initiative.
“We are excited to partner with Solera and introduce a new
solution to the market,” said Troy Weaver, President of Global
Refinish at Axalta. “This technology aligns with Axalta’s ongoing
commitment to sustainability as we set out to become Carbon Neutral
by 2040 and was designed with our customers in mind to help them
achieve their sustainability goals. By accurately calculating CO2
emissions per repair, our customers can make data-driven decisions
to help lower their carbon footprint while also benefiting their
bottom line.”
Due to the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive
(CSRD), many countries will require businesses to track and report
their emissions by 2025. Sustainable Estimatics for Paint makes it
easy to analyze Scope 1, 2, and 3 CO2 emissions, allowing
organizations to present credible and verified carbon emission
figures. Customers will also be able to review dashboards to
analyze their overall collision repair footprint and benchmark
against regional, country-specific, and industry-wide data.
Together with Solera, Axalta provides the products, tools, and
resources to help refinish customers reduce their impact on the
environment.
Arnaud Agostini, International Managing Director at Solera
commented: “Working with Axalta was a very natural course of action
for us as part of our Sustainable Estimatics solution. The ability
to measure carbon emissions is becoming more prevalent across the
world, with an ever-increasing number of governments looking to
advocate its measurement to understand the environmental impact of
vehicle repair on the planet.
The preparation, production and use of paint is an important
part of every body shop process and a hugely important factor for
insurers who will need to accurately measure and report the CO2
impact of every element of every repair.
By partnering with Axalta, Solera not only ensures accurate
measurement of the CO2 emissions emitted as the result of a repair,
but given the paint process is continually evolving, we ensure
that, by having access to Axalta’s ever-changing data as they
develop more eco-friendly paints, our data remains fit for purpose
over the long term, bringing the most accurate CO2 emissions
connected to vehicle repair.”
