Cooper-Standard Holdings (CPS) is an automotive parts manufacturer that produces sealing systems and fluid handling systems for passenger vehicles and light trucks, with operations spanning North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and South America. Its product portfolio spans dynamic and static seals, fuel and brake delivery systems (including fuel lines, brake lines, and quick connectors), and fluid transfer components such as coolant hoses, charge air cooler ducts, and transmission oil cooling tubing. The company primarily serves global automotive original equipment manufacturers and replacement markets, and is headquartered in Northville, Michigan.
As a component supplier in the Automotive Parts & Equipment sub-industry, Cooper-Standards revenue is closely tied to global light vehicle production volumes, making it sensitive to economic cycles and OEM platform changes. The company competes largely on engineering capability and material innovation, with in-house proprietary platforms such as its Fortrex materials and PlastiCool tubing lines used to differentiate its offering to automakers.
