Belron International Limited is a South African vehicle glass repair and replacement group operating worldwide across 34 countries[1] and employing over 25,000 people.

In many countries, Belron brands are able to repair and replace a customer’s windscreen 24-hours-a-day through branch-based and mobile services.

[citation needed] Belron was first founded as a family business in 1897 as Jacobs & Dandor in Cape Town, South Africa.

In 1917, City Glass Bevelling & Silvering Works bought Plate Glass; the companies were merged in 1919 and went ahead to gain success in the windscreen industry by securing the business rights to the curved windscreen production technology in 1953 and introducing laminated rear windows in 1958.

[4][5] In 2015, Belron (94.85% owned by D'Ieteren) had 2,400 branches and 10,000 mobile vans, trading under ten major brands including Carglass and Safelite, serving customers in 33 countries.
