South African Motor Body Repairers’ Association

SAMBRA, as a proud constituent association of the RMI, represents the interests of the Collision Repair Industry in South Africa.

SAMBRA represents the vast majority of the repairer market in South Africa that are able to achieve the standards of SAMBRA’ grading system. The grading system is devised to allow all levels of repairer to become a SAMBRA member, however restrictions are placed on our members in terms of the level of work they are permitted to carry out.

Why use a SAMBRA member?

Motor vehicle body repair can be very costly and accidents are seldom budgeted for.

So, if you are going to have to spend money on motor body repairs, choose to spend it well and do business with a SAMBRA member.

SAMBRA has almost 800 members nationally, and you can find your nearest motor body repairer on this website.

As an association, we promote, protect and encourage the interests of the motoring public by setting and maintaining proper standards of service and repair.

We also assist consumers to settle disputes through mediation and arbitration.
