Wörwag is on it

Dear Readers,

Every day we see countless cars drive by. The first thing we see is usually the color. And the paint needs to be exactly right for it. We at Wörwag are right in the middle of the automotive capital of Stuttgart. Car paints are our specialty and our passion. Of course, I take an especially close look. Is that paint one of ours? Was the exact same color tone achieved on all the parts?
Could I imagine a car in this striking bamboo green or is it enough for the grass in my yard to radiate in a color like this?

Car production has become extremely complex. This applies to paints as well. The color tone cannot deviate, regardless of whether the coating was developed especially for plastic components or the body, and no matter which supplier it comes from.

In spite of modern technology, manual craftsmanship and experience remain indispensable. That’s why our production staff will take you on a tour of our wet coating production facility in this “car crazy” issue. It’s a great feeling knowing that the quality work of our employees is part of practically every car color in the world.

Driving a car is also about pleasure. So we put the top down for a drive in South Africa. Henry Pienaar attends to our customers on-site at our Cape Town location. He tells the story of his very personal, inspiring life journey.
