With a working relationship stretching back over 20 years, David Utting’s spraybooths are an integral part of the East Bilney Coachworks’ (EBC) operation which covers Norfolk and parts of Suffolk. With manufacturer and insurance company approvals from a wide range of leading brands including Lotus, VW, Audi, Peugeot, Fiat and Nissan among others, EBC trades on a reputation for excellence – a reputation which is enhanced by David Utting Engineering spraybooths.

Established in 1975, EBC is a professional independent repair operation deals with all car and light commercial accident & insurance repair work, averaging 160 vehicles per week through their 3 units. With 100 members of staff and a fleet of over 130 courtesy vehicles, ECB needs to keep the spraybooths operating efficiently and correctly to maintain the heavy workload. By choosing David Utting Engineering’s XP spraybooths, they have no worries.

Mark Baldwin, partner at EBC: “Over the years we have purchased 10 booths with David Utting. Everything he does is very, very good. If he says he’ll do something – it gets done. Our latest project involved the installation of a booth at our Norwich South site. We didn’t want to have to excavate to install a new unit as it would have meant downtime. David essentially took a new 9.5m long/4.5m wide end extraction spraybooth and fitted it with his latest technologies. It now allows us to prime or paint 2 cars at the same time in one booth. This reduces our carbon footprint as we only need one spray-bake cycle. David created the equipment we needed, fitted it in just 3 days and even fabricated a mixing room for us in a limited space at the side of the spraybooth. David is a ‘one stop shop’. We would always go to him for our requirements – even if he WASN’T based in the same county as us!”

The XP spraybooth technology has been widely acclaimed by major paint manufacturers and is renowned for high quality, cost efficiency and durability. “The key component of our strategy to repair to the very highest levels is the British Standards Kitemark, a well recognised and trusted symbol of Quality Assurance,” says Mark. “All three sites are accredited with the ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System and the David Utting systems help us to maintain the standards.”
