| 摘要： | When franchised dealers were forced to close their doors at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, it wasn't only cars that they stopped selling: associated industries such the manufacture and supply of paint protection products also suffered.Thankfully, with the easing of lockdown, the automotive retail industry is picking up - and, according to some of the leading companies in paint protection, so is their business.The COVID pandemic will have long-lasting effects for all of us, in many different ways, but the paint protection industry has been adapting from the very start of the crisis.As Jewelultra marketing director Lance Boseley tells us: "When it was announced that we'd go into full lockdown, that meant we lost virtually all our business, because 90％ of it is UK franchised car dealers and independents."The first thing we did, though, was switch all our manufacturing to making sanitising products. Because we're a chemical manufacturer, it's not that difficult to switch formulations around. The alcohol in sanitising products is isopropyl or ethanol, which went into a lot of our products such as glass cleaner. We just switched everything over and started supplying the NHS, local authorities, doctors, schools and hospices. And we donated some to those people, as well." |
