Cary group expands further into the Bus & Coach vertical through acquisition of Glazing Services
Cary Group has entered into an agreement to acquire 70% of Glazing Services, the leading specialist provider of bus and coach glass repair and replacement in France and Belgium. The acquisition represents a further step in Cary Group’s strategy to build a European platform for heavy-vehicle glass services.
Press release 19 January 2026
As part of the transaction, Glazing Services’ current owners, Patrick Collignon and Alexandre Marcq, will remain shareholders and continue to lead the company. This partnership ensures continuity for customers and employees, while leveraging Cary Group’s European network to further develop the business.
Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Bray-sur-Seine, France, Glazing Services is the number one bus and coach glass fitting specialist in both France and Belgium, with national coverage and long-standing relationships with major public and private fleet operators. The company operates through a combination of owned fitting subsidiaries, franchise partners and a centralized distribution network, enabling fast response times and high service reliability.
Cary Group is already active in bus and coach glass repair and replacement in Germany through Zentrale Autoglas and in the Nordics through Svenska Bussglas and Dansk Busglas. This acquisition means that Cary Group further strengthens its position into the bus and coach vertical in Europe.
“Glazing is a highly attractive business with a clear market-leading position, strong operational capabilities and a business model that fits very well with Cary Group. We are very pleased that they have decided to partner up with Cary Group. Together with our existing bus and coach businesses in Germany and the Nordics, this acquisition allows us to further strengthen our European footprint and better serve customers with multi-country operations”, says Anders Jensen CEO of Cary Group.
“Becoming part of Cary Group gives Glazing access to international expertise, improved purchasing opportunities and a strong European network, while preserving our entrepreneurial culture and customer focus,” says Patrick Collignon and Alexandre Marcq, owners of Glazing Services.
