As modern masters of global infrastructure and seasoned industry advisors, our commitment to people, planet, and performance is the foundation for all we put forth.
We are what the world is made of—we use renewable and repurposed raw materials to protect and extend the life of global infrastructure, for a more sustainable world.
Our services support critical infrastructure industries around the world. As trusted advisors with decades of proven success, we've seen it all, done it all, and are ready for whatever comes next.
Protecting what matters while preserving the future—guided by this purpose, the Koppers sustainability strategy focuses on three key pillars of people, planet, and performance.
Koppers Partners with University of Michigan on Innovative Solutions
November 1, 2023
Koppers Corporate Innovation team recently visited the University of Michigan’s engineering school to take part in their Multi-Disciplinary Design Program (MDP) project fair. 💡
In 2024, Koppers will be sponsoring an MDP project at the University that will look at utilizing drones and machine vision to automate counting ties at our Railroad Products & Services plants, with Galesburg, IL, serving as the pilot test site for the project! 🛤️
The MDP project fair was open to all students and gave sponsors like Koppers the opportunity to showcase their projects, answer questions, and meet students who might be interested in working on upcoming projects. 🤝
Thank you to Ashley Coup, Tushar Lovalekar, and Brittany Ruxton for leading this University Project in alignment with Koppers EPIC Innovation program.
Stay tuned for more information about this project!
