As part of our overall commitment to corporate social responsibility, Cooper Technology select for funding those national and international organizations whose programs or projects best fit into our organization.
The nationally recognised Asphalt technology course at Derby University which develop technical skill and knowledge of asphalt related industries and their impact upon the environment is the only UK vocational qualification with around 200 students over the 3 years. It was an obvious choice as part of Cooper Technology 20 years anniversary celebration.
The Cooper Asphalt Engineering prize 2010 for best student in Asphalt Technology and Pavement Design was given to Robin Hall of Aggregate Industries in the examination approved by the Institute of Asphalt Technology IAT. It was presented by our Director of Research, Andrew Cooper, during the IAT ceremony taking place in Dublin, Ireland, June 9th, 2010. Robin will have the pleasure to visit one of the most prestigious European laboratories that perform asphalt testing on Cooper Technology equipment.
