You don’t have to bring your car in for a re trim.

We get many Retrims within our workshop, but it’s not everytime we get the whole car. Our latest work is a Land Rover, Vogue HSE Interior. And all we received here at our workshop in Wigston, Leicester, were the seats.

The seats were picked up from a Land Rover dealer. He wanted the interior of this Vogue given a brand new lease of life in a ‘cream nappa’ leather, with blue quilted stitching to compliment the rest of the car.

Motorsport race seat experts Real Essential, located in Berkshire is to partner with Leicester-based automotive trim specialists CoverTec Solutions to develop material covering options for race seat in-fills and associated applications. The result could mean expansion, new jobs and innovative world leading products being developed in the region.

 

Real Essential Managing Director, Vaughan Cartwright said: “We wanted to develop our leading seat-infill product range further by offering complete high-performance trimmed seating options without compromising on safety or comfort. CoverTec Solutions bring a combined 40 years of bespoke quality automotive trimming experience to the partnership. Their unique custom manufacturing experience means that together we can increase our development for motorsport seat-infill systems, as well as exploring the non-motorsport applications for this technology.” 

 

The UK is already at the heart of world motorsport with many of the teams based here. Seating systems are essential to driver comfort, safety and driving performance in all motorsport. The partnership hopes to develop a range of seating systems building on poly-bead resin technology. While the technology is born of motorsport innovation there are many other applications which the partnership will explore with the promise of new jobs and expansion.

 

Paul Hames of CoverTec Solutions said: “Innovation is what British firms do best. This is a great example of the collaboration of leading technology with years of traditional craftsmanship. The result will be market leading products that the quality people all over the world associate from British hand-crafted products.”

Another custom interior recover finished by us at CoverTec Solutions, and the customer is over the moon with the result of his Subaru re-upholstery, it was explained that he wanted trim the interior seats in black leather outers with red alcantara inners, complete with red stitching to match the alcantara, we went ahead with what was required and redesigned the bespoke seating with subtle changes to the design to accommodate the new materials, although the car is one of the early models it has, that cared for appearance to it, so the new leather and alcantara trimming is a perfect compliment to the outer of the car, the car arrived at our workshop in Wigston, Leicester, on the Saturday ready for us to start work on Monday and was completed by the following Tuesday.
