About Carglass® Switzerland
Carglass® in Switzerland specializes in the repair and replacement of all vehicle glazing: windshields, side windows, rear windows and panoramic roofs. Stone chips are repaired using the patented Glass Medic® process within 30 minutes if the damage is smaller than a 2-franc coin; otherwise a replacement with special adhesive bonding is carried out. The company exclusively uses glazing manufactured to original equipment standards from the same suppliers as the automobile manufacturers and guarantees the recalibration of driver assistance cameras (ADAS) as well as the reset of rain sensors after a windshield replacement. The range is complemented by temporary emergency glazing made of Plexiglas, Bosch windshield wipers, Bosch cabin air filters and the water-repellent glass sealing Carglass® Protect. The mobile service carries out repairs and replacements at the customer's location. Carglass® is part of the Belron Group, operates 29 service centers in Switzerland and a training center in Fribourg (Switzerland), as well as locations in more than 30 countries through the Belron network. CARGLASS Schweiz AG has been ISO 9001 certified since 2009 and works with insurance companies around the clock.
