Just as CCIF participants have found that they share common issues with others across Canada, many of the issues also affect others in many countries around the world. 

Globalized industries, the Internet and the increase in foreign travel provide the means for us to learn about the collision repair industry in different countries. Web sites like this may be of benefit to others around the world as Canadians share their ideas and solutions. Equally, there are ideas and best practices that have been developed by others and from which Canadian collision repairers could benefit.

We invite trade associations and not-for-profit organizations from around the world to provide information on their critical issues and to share their ideas and solutions. We hope they will find interest in CCIF’s activities and be able to find information of value.

International Bodyshop Industry Symposium (IBIS)

IBIS was created in 2001 as global forum for the collision repair industry. Since then the forum has been held annually in Montreux, Switzerland. This provides an opportunity for industry leaders and decision-makers from around the world to debate the issues of the day, seek solutions to common problems, look forward to the factors driving the collision repair market and set industry strategies for the future. IBIS sees the industry at a crossroads, driven by environmental issues, increased legislation, unprecedented diversification of vehicle construction technology and the growing influence of vehicle manufacturers.
