For nearly two centuries, Rogers’ materials have enabled leading-edge technologies that have revolutionized how we live. We are proud that our work results in a cleaner, safer, and more connected world.

Rogers’ materials feature prominently in applications aimed at reducing carbon emissions. Our differentiated advanced electronics and elastomeric materials offer electric and hybrid electric vehicle (EV/HEV) design engineers best-in-class solutions. These products significantly improve the performance of power modules, power transfer, and batteries to make these critical components more efficient, reliable, and safe. In the renewable energy market, such as wind turbines and solar power plants, Rogers’ materials enable the connection between the power source and components, while our ceramic substrates help cool internal parts for more efficient operation. Our products are also used in general industrial applications that help reduce energy usage in factories.

Rogers is at the forefront of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), where our materials improve vehicle safety by detecting and adjusting to environmental conditions. In addition, our materials protect medical shipping containers that transport life-saving vaccines and organs. And we connect the world by enabling wireless telecommunications and preventing damage to portable electronic devices.

Our role doesn’t stop at innovating and manufacturing our solutions. From our sales engineers to our technical service resources, we collaborate closely with our customers to understand their unmet needs to provide materials that meet or exceed their performance requirements.

In our operations, we are committed to manufacturing processes that comply with government and agency standards for environmental health and safety. This year, we are taking our commitment to protect the environment a step further by announcing our goal to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions at our manufacturing sites by 20% by 2030 with a baseline year of 2022.

Since our founding in 1832, we’ve reinvented ourselves through decades of change. One thing remains constant – we know that creating long-term value depends not only on building customer loyalty but also on delivering for our shareholders, giving our employees an enriching work environment with opportunities to grow, and caring for the communities where we operate. Our employees are guided by our Cultural Behaviors, which represent Rogers’ values, while our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) program is maturing and expanding. For our investors, we strive to provide an attractive return on investment while holding ourselves to the highest standards regarding corporate governance and financial reporting.

We look forward to introducing further innovations that advance the goal of reducing carbon emissions. As we do so, we will maintain our focus on the employee experience while delivering results for our investor community.
