At Coppice, sustainability is not a buzzword—it’s a principle built into everything we do. That’s why we’re proud to share that we’ve been awarded a Bronze Medal in our most recent EcoVadis sustainability assessment.
This recognition places Coppice among the top-rated suppliers globally for sustainability performance, validating our continuous efforts to embed environmental, ethical, and socially responsible practices across our operations.
