BMW Partners with BASF for Automotive Repair Coating Solutions

BASF Coatings supplies BMW with a comprehensive range of repair solutions delivering process efficiency and the highest product quality.

BASF's Coatings division announced that Glasurit and R-M have been selected among the preferred paint brands for BMW Group's aftermarket network. This strategic partnership covers 50 markets where BMW Group does not operate under its own brand. The Glasurit 100 Line AraClass and R-M Agilis Pioneer Series product portfolios are positioned to reshape the future of bodyshops and paint facilities worldwide through their commitment to sustainability and high-performance solutions.

BASF Coatings supplies BMW and MINI workshops with a comprehensive range of repair solutions delivering process efficiency and the highest product quality. Additional training solutions will equip BMW Group's bodyshop and paint facility painters and owners with the skills needed to establish a sustainable environment in their operations.

Chris Jackman, Director of Global Strategic Customer Management at BASF Coatings, stated: "We are excited to contribute to the future of sustainability in bodyshops and paint facilities through this partnership with BMW Group. Our premium portfolio Glasurit 100 Line and R-M Agilis stand out with exceptional performance, delivering shorter processing times compared to standard basecoat lines. The advanced formulation also significantly reduces material consumption per application.

Furthermore, our ability to reduce certain three-layer colours to two-layer colours further increases speed and sustainability in repair operations."

This collaboration between BASF Coatings and BMW Group represents a shared commitment to innovation, quality and sustainability in the evolving automotive paint sector market.
