We’re pleased to share that Matt Woods, our Sustainability Lead at Purchase Direct, has joined the ARIES Governance Advisory Group.
ARIES (Accident Repair Industry Environmental Standard) is the new environmental framework for the vehicle repair sector. It provides bodyshops with clear, measurable steps to cut energy use, reduce emissions, and improve sustainability across operations.
By joining the Advisory Group, we’re not just supporting bodyshops on their path to ARIES, we’re actively helping to shape the future of the standard.
Through our Driving Net Zero programme, we provide:
✅ Guidance through each level of the ARIES framework
✅ Practical advice to reduce costs and emissions
✅ Energy management software to monitor and manage usage
✅ Independent site audits to verify compliance
For bodyshops, this means support that goes beyond compliance. We help turn sustainability into cost savings, stronger performance, and a clearer route to achieving ARIES.
If ARIES is on your radar, or you just want to make sense of what it means for your bodyshop, we’re here to help.
