CooperVision Celebrates Earth Day 2024

Thousands of CooperVision employees worldwide are dedicated to improving the way people see each day—and that includes making a positive impact on our planet.

Earth Day 2024 is on 22 April, and CooperVision has many activities planned in celebration,  including:

  • Employees of CooperVision’s LEED® gold certified manufacturing facility in Alajuela, Costa Rica will campaign to re-collect recycled waste brought in from home. Employees will also have the opportunity to take home compost made from the site’s organic waste for use in their gardens.
  • CooperVision’s LEED® gold certified manufacturing facility in Juana Díaz, Puerto Rico is celebrating Earth Day all month long through a series of educational sessions and events for employees. The facility will also host an Earth Day Fair with exhibitions featuring energy-efficient equipment, electric cars, educational conferences, sustainable art and houseware, raffles, and more.
  • Employees of CooperVision’s LEED® silver certified global packaging and distribution facility in West Henrietta, N.Y. will volunteer their time to pick up waste at a local park and will recycle materials collected as appropriate. On Earth Day, employees at the site will receive reusable produce bags for their grocery shopping.
  • CooperVision’s LEED® silver certified manufacturing facility in Scottsville, N.Y. will participate in an Arbor Day event at a local park where, for the third consecutive year, the Scottsville manufacturing team will donate trees to be planted in the community.

For more information about CooperVision’s commitment to sustainability—on Earth Day and every day—visit coopervision.com/about-us/coopervision-sustainability, or I can set you up to speak with Denise Lougheed, Marketing Manager, CooperVision Canada.
