Mastering New Techniques: Our Panel Techs Complete KECO GPR Training!

At Fortress, we're always looking for new ways to improve our skills and processes, and this week was no different! Our Panel Technicians took part in a hands-on, 1-day training session focused on KECO’s advanced Glue Pull Repair (GPR) techniques.

This in-depth training provided our team with the chance to explore the many advantages of GPR to compliment conventional repair methods. Technicians learned the ins and outs of GPR processes, including the tools and best practices needed for effective repair. They were given the opportunity to experience the difference firsthand and understand the limitations of this technique.

One of the highlights of the session was the focus on self-correction and troubleshooting. This approach equips our technicians with the confidence and expertise to not only apply the technique but also adapt and overcome challenges in real-world repairs.

By mastering these skills, we’re excited to enhance our repair capabilities, making us more efficient and delivering even higher-quality results for our customers. A big thanks to the team for their dedication to learning and to KECO for providing such valuable training!
