Paintless Dent Repair Industry Launches
National Alliance of PDR Technicians

Winson-Salem, NC - - The National Alliance of PDR Technicians has announced that it has officially launched a non- profit organization called the NAPDRT to provide the thousands of small business owners and entrepreneurs working in the Paintless Dent Repair industry throughout the United States a platform and a voice that will allow them to address the issues and challenges that are facing the Paintless Dent Repair Industry today.

The goal of the NAPDRT is to provide a voice for the silent majority of self employed PDR Technicians across the country and at the same time harness the buying power of a large organization to help give individuals opportunities to access discounted services like health and business insurance and more.

According to Jamie Hawkins -Interim President of the NAPDRT

“The PDR Industry is relatively new to the World of Automotive Repair and the Automotive and Insurance Industries are now starting to realize the profitability and cost savings of this specialized repair process.”

He went on to say “A few large companies are attempting to charge into the lead and direct the PDR Industry in ways that may benefit their own company strategies, but many times it’s at the expense of the Individual PDR technicians.

Decisions that affect the entire PDR industry are currently being made by a small group, while the vast majority of the PDR Industry is left without a voice in these critical decisions. The NAPDRT will allow the Individual PDR Technicians to come together to help shape the future of the PDR Industry.”

He summarized the vision of the NAPDRT by stating "As our membership grows we will continue to address the critical issues that face the Paintless Dent Repair Technicians today. We look forward to working closely with the Insurance and Auto Body Industries to come up solutions to the many challenges that lie ahead to bring PDR into the mainstream of the Auto Repair Industry for the cost savings of the Insurance Industry, the benefit of the Consumers and the welfare of the individual PDR technician.”

The NAPDRT is a Non –Profit organization based out of North Carolina.
