Having relocated to even bigger premises in Lafrenz Industrial Park in the capital, the business continues to be a force to be reckoned with in the industry.Robert Zorn who is the owner of Car-Tech Namibia trained and qualified as a diagnostic technician in Germany 22 years ago. Zorn came back to Namibia and worked in the automotive industry for 23 years before deciding to run his own business. “I have always had a passion for providing exceptional service and having been in the industry for so long, I decided to open my own shop and implement my own best practices,” said Zorn.Car-Tech is a motor-body repair business that specialises in spray-painting, mechanical repairs and panel-beating amongst a host of other car repair services.Renowned for their excellent workmanship and car refinish expertise, Car-Tech has been making use of Glasurit, a premium paint brand from BASF Coatings Services, distributed by Hemco Paints in Namibia.
