We are excited to announce that our facility in Cotia, Brazil has officially achieved P3 Bronze accreditation. This accomplishment distinguishes Cotia as the first plant in the region to meet this rigorous global standard for quality, efficiency, and safety.
To mark this milestone, we were honored to welcome Tenneco CEO Jim Voss, Vice President and General Manager of LATAM Verónica Martínez, and Vice President of Operations Ricardo Porta for a site visit and celebration with the team.
A year and a half ago, Cotia began an ambitious journey to redefine its operational trajectory. The team implemented a transformation strategy rooted in precision, accountability, and a strong focus on safety. By streamlining workflows and aligning daily habits with global benchmarks, they significantly elevated plant performance.
During the visit, leadership saw these improvements firsthand and recognized the effort behind this achievement. This is more than a certification; it represents a new blueprint for excellence across our LATAM operations.
Congratulations to the Cotia, Brazil team for your resilience and for setting a strong benchmark for future growth in the region.
