As part of it’s ongoing commitment to technical development and support, Farécla has invested in a paint facility at its head office in Ware, Hertfordshire, UK. The facility has a spraybooth and mixing room, which will enable Farécla to do more internal development work and testing on paint systems in-house.


Rob Wilkinson, Technical Director, Farécla Products said:  “We’ve always been able to thoroughly pre-test new products, for example our recently launched G3 Ultra, because we have good relations with paint companies and bodyshops, but having our own facility gives us greater flexibility.” He adds, “It will also allow us to be more proactive with regards to developments in the marketplace.”

The new facility, which also includes a conference room, also means that customers and business partners, can be invited along to view new innovations, while the Farécla sales team will be able to use it for product training.

The workshop is equipped with all the tools and equipment required for painting and polishing panels, and has a drive-in area. The Junair spraybooth has glazed doors for safely viewing the working progress.

Managing Director Michael Haddon commented, “Speed to market with new products is important and this new facility is a logical addition to the R & D work that Farécla does. I think it will be a very well used asset in the business which in turn will benefit the industry.”
