28 Nov 2012|16,657 views
Introduction
Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd started way back in 1995 and now boasts numerous branches in Singapore and a newly opened enterprise in the USA. The company was incorporated in 1995 when Chang How, an offshore technician, and two of his friends started Delco Auto Grooming Centre in a rented car lot at a petrol kiosk, with just S$4500 in capital. Unfortunately the partnership did not sustain and dissolved within the year.
Company Restructure
Chang How remained in the automotive industry and single-handedly continued the business. He started off by renaming the company to Unique Car Beauty Shop and moved operations to a small workshop, the size of one parking space.
In 1997, Unique had three workers and struggled with the business, despite offering numerous services that included interior steam cleaning, disinfecting car upholstery, polishing and engine bay cleaning. 3 years later, in 2000, leather restoration was added to the range of services offered.
In the same year, Sherine Chan joined the company and in 2004, the company underwent a significant transformation. Chang How moved from his single parking space and upgraded to a full workshop. The company's name was also changed to Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd.
Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd has undergone tremendous change since its humble beginnings back in 1995. But one thing remains - their philosophy.
Company Philosophy
Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd aims to deliver quality services, both before and after sales. They value word-of-mouth higher than media advertising and ironically, most of the company’s sales were secured through the former means.
The company's philosophy is echoed by Chang How, the Director of Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd.
"It is our promise to customers to deliver quality services and products, both before and after sales. In our view, the best advertisement is not provided by the media, but through the recommendations of the customers' friends and relatives. In fact, most of our sales are secured through word-of-mouth upon recommendation from our satisfied customers."
While most corporations promise the best sales experience most also fail to deliver. This is what makes Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd unique among the rest. They deliver on their promise.
Business Expansion
Starting with just three men, from 2010 they expanded and operated from more branches in Singapore with 30 employees and more than 80,000 track records - and are still growing. More notably, they even have outlets in other regional countries like Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Mexico, U.A.E, Cambodia and Bahrain with more coming along the way.
In 2011, Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd opened their first international branch in the sunny state of California, USA. Venturing into overseas markets allows the company to further extend their products and services to affluent individuals there.
With expansion in California, Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd started another subsidiary - CS-II International Inc to manufacture and distribute the products worldwide. Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd views the USA as an upcoming market for cosmetic services. Bearing that in mind, they will be opening the CS-II International Training Institute that teaches the technical know-how.
Besides operating in Singapore and US, they have operations in Philippines and an upcoming enterprise in the UAE.
Organisations and companies often want to get certified to ISO's management system standards although certification is not a requirement. However, the main reason for wanting to get certified is to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of company operations. This certification entails the company to meet customer preferences, fall within the context of a risk management programme and even help motivate staff by setting a clear goal for the development of its management system. As tough as it may be, Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd went ahead to be accredited the ISO 9001:2008 as well as ISO 14001.2004 certification. This further ensures that their products and services are safe, reliable and of good quality.
CS-II Paint Sealant
Vehicle owners have spent a major amount of time washing, waxing and polishing their cars throughout the years. As drivers, we are always looking at effortless ways to spend minimal time to maintain our cars' shine.
A decade after starting the company, in 2005, Chang How introduced the company's now signature CS-II Paint Sealant. The Sealant will produce 5,000 Nano particles over one square inch which locks into the paint's surface and seal it off. A proprietary paint protection service, the CS-II is to be applied by technically trained people to maintain the factory-fresh paint shine.
Additionally it also protects the shiny finish of your car from minor scratches and contaminants such as acid rain, fallout and bird droppings with no waxing required up to 24 months.
A complimentary silicon free car wash solution will be provided after your first session to remove any foreign particles and retain the shine created by the paint sealant. Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd also retails a wide variety of car care products to beautify and maintain your expensive ride of choice.
Glass Coating
Derived from lots of research and utilising state-of-the-art nanotechnology, the Glass Coating service is engineered to protect all hard surfaces i.e. glass or ceramic. The spray-on coat hardens to form a protective shield and improves rigidness by at least 20%. The finished job provides a high gloss and mirror finish effect – parallel to a showroom finish.
The highlight feature of CS-II is the ability to improve durability and shine of the car's paint. And best of all, you can do away with the waxing process to make the paint shine and glimmer, saving you time and money.
Ceramic Coating
This year, Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd have outdone themselves and introduced another class-leading product known as CS-II Ceramic Coating. With even more advanced technologies and science sorcery, this semi-permanent sealant requires a thin single coat to provide a long-term shine and protection. How long term are we talking about? Up to three years.
The CS-II Ceramic Coat is anti-static and weather-resistant that greatly reduces the penetration of heat, and protects from harmful UV rays to retain the finish of your vehicle. Within the coat, the molecules are inter-locked with the car paintwork so that the resulting coat does not get washed off like wax. The coat can also be applied to any surface except rubber.
Vehicles treated with CS-II Ceramic Coat can repel water and contaminants like a lotus leaf yet maintain a clear, reflective, showroom like shine. The CS-II Ceramic Coat cannot be removed by water, alkaline, detergents, or even pressure washers and can only be waxed or sealed off within three days of application.
Warranty
CS-II Paint Sealant comes with either 18 or 24-month written warranty while the higher end Glass and Ceramic coating comes with a three year warranty.
Rates
The rates differ according to the size of your car and the type of service you require. In general, the coating service starts at $280 and can go up to $1080.
The Ceramic coating service starts at $688 for a small car and goes up to $1080 for a large MPV.
The Glass coating service starts at $588 for a small car and goes up to $980 for a large MPV.
The CS-II paint protection service starts at $280 for a small car and goes up to $450 for a large MPV.
Conclusion
Starting from a petrol kiosk, Chang How and his team have worked very hard and have resisted tough times to where they are today. Not only expanding their services, they widened their service offering and ventured into new areas and markets like the USA and Philippines to share their knowledge and technical expertise.
Starting an academy to train young adults just shows how Chang How is not in this business for profit, and no matter how much success has been achieved over the years, they still believe and function by the company's philosophy - putting customer service first prior to everything else.
This shows how they haven't steered away from their roots and trusting word-of-mouth recommendations, to normal and flashy print advertising, displays their boldness and their aspirations to innovate.
In this fast paced world where everyone wants nothing short of the perfection, Unique (Since 1995) Pte Ltd offers good customer service, affordable pricing and most importantly value for money products.
