    Findlay, Ohio -- Cooper Tire & Rubber Co.'s plant in Krusevac, Serbia, has earned ISO 9001:2008 quality standard certification, the global benchmark for providing assurance about the ability to satisfy quality requirements and to enhance customer satisfaction in supplier-customer relationships.

    Cooper bought the plant - formerly owned and operated by Serbia's Trayal Corp. - in January from Serbian privatization authorities and pledged to invest $67 million to upgrade the 35-year-old car and light truck tire plant.

    The Serbian plant joins Cooper's seven other worldwide tire factories and technical centers as having achieved ISO 9001:2008.

    “We adhere to the highest standards of quality throughout our organization,” said Hal Miller, president of Cooper's International Tire Division. “Earning ISO 9001:2008 at all eight of the tire manufacturing plants globally demonstrates our ongoing commitment to quality and continuous process improvement, which aligns with our strategic plan goals.”

    Krusevac Plant Manager Peter Salmon said, “This marks another step in making Serbia a globally competitive manufacturing facility,” noting certification came just months after production at the plant re-started in February.

    The International Organization for Standardization (ISA) is the world`s largest developer and publisher of international standards.
