NOVUS Glass is part of Fix Network World, the global leader in the automotive aftermarket services sector. With our Repair First, Replace When Necessary® commitment, NOVUS Glass can repair more windshields with greater optical clarity and structural integrity than any other system in the industry.
The NOVUS origin story began in 1972 in the United States of America. After having three windshields replaced due to small breaks, Dr Frank Werner went to work on finding a solution to fix breaks without having to replace the entire windshield. With the help of chemical engineer, Bill Wiele, the pair developed what is acknowledged still today as the best method of windshield glass repair.
In 1972, Gerald Keinath bought the patent rights for windshield repair and designed a business plan to take it to the people. The company started as a home business and then the name was changed to NOVUS®, which is the Latin word for ‘new’ or ‘innovative’.
