Because We Care

We proudly support the Smile Foundation, a South African NGO that provides free corrective plastic and reconstructive surgery for children with facial abnormalities, including burn victims, cleft lips, and facial paralysis. Over the past decade, we have helped restore smiles to over 600 children. For every repair we complete, we donate to the Foundation on behalf of our clients.

Environment

Lowering Our Carbon Footprint

We’re committed to reducing our carbon footprint and environmental impact. While the autobody repair industry has embraced water-borne paint, Bluespec goes further—our omission-elimination tech monitors and controls pollution at every level.

Safety is just as important. We’ve implemented strict measures to protect both our repair specialists and clients.

Our environmental strategy has the following components:

Air quality

Our systems minimise our emissions of fugitive dust (natural and human-associated dust that becomes airborne because of wind or work) as well as gases and smoke.

Waste management

All our waste is subject to rigorous control.

  • No domestic waste is buried or burnt.
  • We maintain good housekeeping practices.
  • We provide appropriate containers in designated areas, each specifying which kind of waste it accepts.
  • General waste, including paper, glass, plastics and aluminium, is recycled.
  • Hazardous waste is stored in designated areas and disposed of statutorily.
  • Used fuels, oils and greases are drained and contained for recycling or disposal.
  • No temporary or illegal dumping is tolerated.
  • All recycling methods are verified and documented.

Water management

We rigorously control and contain paint, oil, diesel and chemical spillages. In this way, we minimise the pollution of surface water.

Noise management

We work hard to minimise the noise created by our operations. All our equipment and vehicles have been fitted with silencers. We ensure all our workers wear protective equipment as specified by the Noise Control Regulations and associated standards and guidelines.
