Conducted materiality assessment

We conducted a double materiality assessment in 2024 to determine our priority sustainability impacts, risks and opportunities.

Published sustainability reporting

We are committed to providing an annual overview of our activities and operations relating to sustainability and governance topics.

Aligned with UN Global Goals

We've aligned our sustainability efforts with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, aimed at protecting the planet and ensuring prosperity and peace for all by 2030. We are concentrating our current efforts on three SDGs that we believe to be most relevant for our organization and our business activities. Cooper is also a full participant in the United Nations Global Compact, the world's largest voluntary corporate sustainability initiative.

Engaged stakeholders

Cooper engages with various stakeholders including investors, customers, representatives from government, regulators, civil society, local communities and nonprofits, patient advocacy groups, employees, academia, suppliers, business partners and industry groups through one-on one discussions, conferences, working groups, consortiums, surveys and digital communications.

Reduced emissions and used energy

Environmental sustainability is core to Cooper’s business strategy. Through reducing emissions, increasing our use of renewable energy, conserving resources, and embedding sustainability into our products, our operational focus is on the responsible use of the planet’s natural resources.

Set new ESG goals

In 2023, Cooper Standard set new goals for certain topics that embrace how the Company is evolving for a new future. Through a goal-review exercise, the Company evaluated its successes, challenges and the relevance of previously stated goals, ultimately resulting in a shift in how it measures and evaluates performance in some key areas.
