Aeroklas are pleased to announce a third Fitment Centre is now open for business.
Located in O’Conner, this facility will be the second in WA, and the third of its kind in Australia, with the first being successfully opened on Brisbane’s north side in early 2020. This purpose-built facility will be dedicated to servicing the light commercial vehicle industry by offering complete vehicle fit outs for dealers, fleets and individuals, along with tailored solutions for specific applications.
This new fitment centre is a culmination of recognisable automotive brands Aeroklas, Flexiglass and Bocar with roots stretching as far back as 1949 and brings together over 150 years of aftermarket auto accessories innovation experience. Flexiglass was established in Western Australia and created the first fibreglass vehicle canopy way back in 1956, since then Flexiglass has grown to become a true powerhouse of the industry. Bocar was established on the Gold Coast, Australia in 1970 and boasts a long a proud history of working with OEMs, specialising in aluminium tray solutions and recently launching a brand-new Stockade series of Bull Bars, ready-made for getting your vehicle ready for tough working conditions. The Aeroklas team has been producing premium plastic automotive accessories for over 35 years and boasts a great history in developing innovative products to service our growing retail network in Australia and a global brand presence.
“The Flexiglass brand is one of the oldest in the automotive industry and this transition is the next chapter in a long and storied history,” said Matt Logan, Aeroklas Australia’s head of customer experience. The move to an Aeroklas fitment centre will see products from Flexiglass, Aeroklas and Bocar come together for viewing, purchase and fitment all in the one location. “By combining Flexiglass’ deep product range with Aeroklas Australia’s growing footprint and vision for the future, the Flexiglass brand and our customers will have an enhanced service experience moving forward,” said Logan.
Some services offered by the Aeroklas fitment centre include fleet and dealer vehicle fitouts, tailored packages, modification, compliance and GVM upgrades all performed in a timely manner with one point of invoice and contact.
