The company, which was founded 66 years ago and which has 10 employees, is one of the oldest and most well-known specialist companies in Landshut and has stood for reliable craftsmanship and innovative solutions since 1952.
The IRS Group is Europe’s leading group in the areas of smart repair, body and paint repairs as well as the repair of hail damage to a vehicle’s outer shell.
