Glass America, one of the largest independently-owned automobile glass
replacement and repair companies in the country, has joined forces with NGA,
the National Glass Association. Founded in 1948, the NGA represents nearly
4,000 member companies and locations. Their mission is to provide
information and education, as well as promote quality workmanship, ethics,
and safety in the architectural, automotive and window and door glass
industries.

"The NGA promotes many of the standards we encourage here at Glass
America. Being a proud member of NGA means that we are committed to superior
standards and education in the auto-glass replacement industry,” said David
Rohlfing, president of Glass America. “Through the NGA’s online training and
certification programs, we have the opportunity to utilize a number of tools
for Glass America which will help to ensure that our Auto Glass Technicians
continually improve their technical skills. The NGA also provides a consumer
awareness program stressing the need for the safe installation of auto
glass. We applaud the NGA for their work to educate consumers of the
importance of auto glass in protecting them in case of an accident, with the
goal of raising the standards of installations for auto glass repair and
replacement.”
“The NGA is pleased to have Glass America as a member and we look forward
to working with them in the future," said Philip J. James, NGA President and
CEO.
