Visitors can take the opportunity to view the Green Car Power Range of depollution equipment, pieces from the EV & Hybrid range and even have a demo on the best-selling Tyre Rim Punch.

You will be able to discuss training options and additional services. Training is an area that Green Car specialise in, and they will be happy to provide bespoke training plans to meet your Health and Safety requirements. As the first Depollution Equipment provider in the UK to understand the importance of onsite training (Green Car were the first Depollution company to offer City and Guilds on site F Gas certification) they believe that training should take place on your own equipment at your premises. This means your staff don’t need to travel to classrooms, minimising costs and downtime. On site training also allows us to be flexible with your businesses equipment, processes and setup.
You will be in safe hands, as Green Cars skilled trainers and engineers undertake rigorous training themselves, completing both internal and external courses. These skills include a good awareness of Environment, Health and Safety practices as well as a range of engineering skills giving expertise in depollution equipment, pumping systems, compressors and vehicle lifts to name a few. Green Car is committed to the continuous improvement of its people’s skills and following the accreditation of internal trainers, it plans for all service engineers to become fully accredited Lift Engineers by mid-2024. An area frequently highlighted by the HSE and Insurance providers, this will support Green Car customers staying compliant with LOLER and PUWER.
Other services include gold standard installation and pipework services, Tank inspections and Fuel Management systems to name a few.
After visiting the showroom, you will be invited to look round the warehouse and finally the nearby assembly plant. As the company has grown, substantial investment has been applied to running a streamline operation. Green Car successfully operates using the ‘LEAN’ methodology. Simply put it is a way of optimising people, resources, effort, and energy – reducing wastage, lowering the carbon footprint, and creating value for the customer.
You will see the system demonstrated in the assembly plant. Green Car proudly manufactures equipment in the United Kingdom. With a wealth of highly skilled engineering services (most with military and aerospace contracts) on the doorstep the supply chain is the of highest calibre, and critical quality control is applied efficiently.
As well as manufacturing equipment to ease the environmental burden of ELV's, Green Car also work hard to reduce their own carbon footprint as a business.
Being based in Tewkesbury, who’s town regularly suffers with flooding, the business and employees know too well the importance of driving down emissions and the effect of global warming. Some of things they do to achieve this are having a huge proportion of suppliers within a 50 mile radius, which in turn also supports many local businesses. Even then, they know there is still some environmental impact that the manufacturing processes will have, which is why as well as funding many carbon offsetting projects, to date they have planted 2012 trees in the UK and worldwide!
Another important reason for prioritising UK supply chains in the last few years is that unprecedented events such as Brexit, Covid, containers stuck in Panama, war in Ukraine and Diversions from the Red Sea have played havoc with supply chains and demonstrated the need for keeping a fully stocked warehouse and predominantly local supply chains.
The last thing a manufacturer wants is to sell equipment and then find that it cannot supply provide timely spares deliveries.
You may also notice the prepared ‘grab and go’ replenished stock boxes in the warehouse, ready for our engineers to load into their vehicles for their next service calls.
Green Cars stock holding, and forward planning have produced a slick spares supply system. With an You can place an order either through our online ordering system, sales line, or with our knowledgeable engineers who are on hand to chat through any queries. Stock orders placed before 12pm are despatched on a next day delivery service as we understand how detrimental something not working can be!
Which way you want to get in touch with the company is accommodated as each customer has its own way of working, we can even help you and chat through any of our social media platforms, if that’s easier for you!
Visitors come away impressed with the professional team, the quality of equipment and impressive stock levels and services on offer, but Green Car are first to point out that its most valuable assets are of course, its customers.
