This marks a significant milestone in the company’s growth and reinforces their commitment to delivering industry-leading services to an expanding customer base.

Acquired in 2023 by global leader in online vehicle remarketing and recycling, Copart, significant investment has been made into the company’s infrastructure, fleet, and vehicle dismantling and depollution operations.

The new eco-friendly head office features expanded warehouse capabilities, and cutting-edge vehicle recycling equipment. It also serves as the central hub for the company’s owned and branded fleet.

The Green Parts Specialists Director, Phil DeGroot, said: 

“This is more than just a new building – it’s a major step forward for our business and for the circular economy in the automotive sector.

The investment reflects our ongoing mission to provide accessible, affordable, and sustainable vehicle repair solutions across the UK.”

In a market increasingly focused on environmental impact and cost-effective solutions, The Green Parts Specialists continue to lead the way, offering high-quality, provenanced parts backed by expert support and a network of nationwide delivery hubs.

Copart founder Willis Johnson attended the official opening ceremony, joined by customers, stakeholders, and automotive industry bodies who also enjoyed a special ‘behind the scenes’ tour of the new facilities.
