As the plant manager at Cooper Standard’s Spring Lake facility, I take great pride in our achievements.

Our Spring Lake, Michigan facility serves as Cooper Standard ISG's thermoplastics sealing center, where many employees, including myself, have been around for decades.

At Cooper Standard ISG, we have been making radiator baffles for several commercial vehicle manufacturers and their suppliers for many years. Baffles are a vital under-hood component that directs air to the radiator to provide optimum cooling.

When it comes to manufacturing a seal for windows and doors, commercial vehicles, appliances or other industrial equipment, the more familiar we can be with your product goals and requirements, the more effective a product we can develop for you.
