The vehicles entering today's collision centres are changing faster than ever.

With the growing use of advanced high-strength steels, aluminum, mixed-material construction, and increasingly stringent OEM repair procedures, welding has become one of the most important skills in modern collision repair. Shops are placing greater emphasis on OEM-approved equipment, ongoing technician training, proper sectioning techniques, and squeeze-type resistance spot welding (STRSW) to keep pace with evolving repair requirements.

As technology continues to advance, collision repair facilities are focusing on more than just repairing vehicles. They're investing in the knowledge, processes, and equipment needed to ensure repairs are performed safely, accurately, and according to manufacturer standards.

The future of collision repair will continue to be driven by education, technology, and a commitment to repair excellence. Shops that embrace these changes are helping raise the standard for our industry while delivering safer repairs, improved repair quality, and greater confidence for customers.

No surprise the KUBE Clip Cart and Fastener Program is taking off in collision centers across the country! Shops are discovering that when clips and fasteners are organized, mobile, and easy to track, everything just works better.

Less time searching. Less inventory clutter. Better organization. More accurate invoicing. And more opportunities to recover costs that often slip through the cracks.

From the technician floor to the front office, KUBE helps keep repairs moving, inventory under control, and profits where they belong. Add in the FasTrack scanning and invoicing system, and it's easy to see why more and more shops are making the switch.

The results speak for themselves, and installations are happening fast from coast to coast.
