PITTSBURGH, July 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Koppers Holdings Inc. (NYSE: KOP) today announced that it has published its annual Corporate Sustainability Report (CSR), which details the company's comprehensive efforts and enhanced strategy to create a more sustainable future through: establishing new governance structures; fostering organizational alignment; conducting an updated materiality assessment; and developing more forward-looking environmental, social and governance goals.
