CooperVision earns Zero Waste certification

CooperVision has achieved Zero Waste Facility Programme certification for six of its global contact lens manufacturing and distribution sites across Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, the UK and the US.

Each site was individually evaluated and certified by SCS Global Services (SCS), an international third-party environmental and sustainability certification provider, under its latest zero waste standard.

The certification marked the latest milestone in CooperVision’s environmental initiatives focused on energy conservation, resource efficiency and empowering employees and local communities.

‘Getting the certification at all six of these facilities is not only a celebration of our current efforts but serves as another significant benchmark of progress in our sustainability journey,” said Rolando Torres, chief operations officer at CooperVision.
