The company offers 24 variants of Cooper engines ranging from 8 hp to 1000 hp, backed by engineering excellence, continued innovation, and a commitment to quality. Cooper Corporation has a technical collaboration with Ricardo, UK, for the design and manufacture of cutting-edge engines that meet current and future emission norms. These engines are equipped with fully electronic management systems and engine-mounted sensors. They are compact in size, have a high power-to-weight ratio, and are fuel efficient. These engines have robust design with extended maintenance intervals and a high-power density. For LPG and CNG engines, the company has specially designed pistons and ring packs.

 Farrokh Cooper, Chairman and Managing Director, Cooper Corporation, said, “It is always a pleasure to associate with companies like Kam-Avida Enviro Engineers, which began using improvised and mechanized tools to tackle the sector of cleaning and maintenance in a country where this task has historically been performed manually. At Cooper Corporation it is our aim to provide cleaner power for a greener environment and to completely support this campaign for cleanliness. I strongly believe that Swachh Bharat Initiative should reach out to the length and breadth of the country as a national movement. Cleanliness is very important whether it is our home, workplace, or public places and cleanliness of our surroundings is our responsibility”.
