Axalta will accelerate growth of U-POL’s products by expanding market access through Axalta’s existing sales and distribution channels while leveraging U-POL’s distribution channels to extend the reach of its refinish coatings portfolio to new customers.
U-POL’s talented global organization and its manufacturing plant and R&D lab in Wellingborough, England, bring important capabilities to the company’s commercial, manufacturing and technology organizations, enhancing Axalta’s ability to serve its customers across the globe.

This premier collision repair facility is locally owned and operated by Ian Morton.
Morton, who also owns Fix Auto Tucson-Thoroughbred, was thrilled to celebrate the grand opening of his newest center alongside his hardworking team, industry partners, the Arizona Rangers, Sierra Vista Area Chamber of Commerce members, the Sierra Vista Fire Department and Mayor Rick Mueller. Lunch from Gunny’s Barbeque was also provided to attendees after the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
“It was a wonderful day, with a terrific turnout, and we were so excited to finally celebrate the opening of our facility with the community,” said Morton. “After a challenging year, we put the grand opening event on hold until we could celebrate this milestone moment right, alongside the people of Sierra Vista.”
Fix Auto Sierra Vista is a 10,000-square foot premier collision repair center, equipped with the latest in repair technologies and resources, as well as honored VeriFacts VQ and I-CAR Gold certifications. Both VeriFacts and I-CAR are national auto repair certifiers that require facilities to uphold the highest standard of excellence for equipment, technician capabilities and repair standards.
“Repair quality and safety comes before anything at my facilities,” said Morton. “I want the Sierra Vista community to know they can count on our team for premier collision repairs and the highest level of customer service standards. It was a pleasure to finally welcome everyone onsite to tour the facility and show them all of the hard work our team puts into their repairs.”
Fix Auto Sierra Vista also employs an award-winning team, as Manager Rich O’Leary was a Manager of the Year finalist for VeriFacts and two technicians were recognized for their abilities in repairing specialty materials.
“We look forward to continuing paving the way in repair standards as we pursue certifications for manufacturers, like GM and Honda,” said Morton. “We know this makes a difference to customers and we want to be that locally owned business that the people of Sierra Vista can count on in their time of need.”
