ERJ staff report (LMH)

Novi, Michigan -- Cooper Standard said it is marking its inaugural trip to the 2012 Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) with the debut of its global performance products group during the expo, to be held 29 Oct - 1 Nov in Las Vegas.

Products that will be showcased at the event include sealing systems, thermal and emissions systems, fluid delivery systems, anti-vibration systems, sheeting, industrial lubrication and workshop equipment.

The performance products group combines the former businesses of StanPro in North America, Metzeler Technical Rubber Products and Specialty Products Group in Europe and Tecalemit in Australia to address the significant global growth in sectors adjacent to the light vehicle market, Cooper said.

“The rapid growth of non-traditional Cooper Standard markets creates an excellent opportunity for the company to leverage its technical capabilities to provide more solutions to this segment of customers,” said Allen Campbell, chief financial officer of Cooper Standard and executive champion for the Performance Products Group. “For example, as the commercial truck market grows in emerging markets there will be an increased demand for improved comfort and performance.”
