October 9, 2019 By CollisionWeek Editor

Axalta (NYSE:AXTA) celebrated reaching a milestone of 20,000 automotive refinish workers at more than 950 body shops trained through the ‘Axalta on Tour’ program today, which brings free specialized training to body shops in Mexico and Latin America.

Axalta logoSince 2016, Axalta’s experts have traveled through every corner of Mexico, Colombia and Argentina to train refinishers directly in their body shops and provide them with tools to maximize the use of the products, reduce time, and increase productivity.

“At Axalta, we put our customers first,” said Daniel Salcido, President of Axalta Mexico and VP of Axalta Refinish Latin America. “We are very proud to have covered so much ground in the past few years helping to train refinisher customers and keep them current with the latest techniques, products and technologies. ‘Axalta on Tour’ gives us another opportunity to be close to customers, listen to their needs and offer support to help them grow their businesses. Their success is our success, and we are so fortunate to have the opportunity to be in the shop with our customers on a regular basis.”

The program has provided customized training based on customers’ needs and requirements in each market and broadens their knowledge on the most advanced repair techniques.

“We are proud to close another year of the ‘Axalta on Tour’ program with extraordinary participation. Strong demand and interest in this program motivates us to continue to make it better each year to help our customers deliver the best results at the lowest possible cost. We are proud of the success of this program and the benefits our customers realize as a result,” said Karla Tortolero, Strategic Planning and Marketing Manager for Axalta Latin America.
