Woolcool is one of our Headline Sponsors for the Staffordshire & Stoke-on-Trent COP Festival 2026, and we’re proud to spotlight a Staffordshire business putting sustainability into practice every day
Why Woolcool is supporting COP Festival 2026
Sustainability sits at the core of Woolcool’s purpose. As a business built on the use of natural materials, the company believes strongly that organisations can be a genuine force for good in tackling climate challenges.
“As a company born, grown and based in Staffordshire, supporting COP Festival 2026 felt like a natural fit,” says Josie Morris, CEO of Woolcool. “It allows us to champion local action, collaborate with our community, and be part of meaningful conversations that drive positive environmental change, both locally and beyond.”
What they hope people will take away
Woolcool hopes that COP Festival 2026 will encourage people to reflect on the role we all play in reducing our impact on the planet.
By bringing together individuals, organisations and ideas, the Festival creates space for shared learning and inspiration. The aim is not grand gestures, but small, practical actions that, taken together, can lead to real and lasting change in everyday life and work.
Values in action
Supporting COP Festival aligns closely with Woolcool’s wider values and mission. At the heart of the organisation is a commitment to using natural materials to do things differently, while consistently pushing beyond the expected in everything they create.
Their involvement in the Festival reflects a broader belief that businesses have a responsibility not only to innovate, but also to support communities and contribute positively to environmental outcomes.
Practical action linked to the Festival themes
Woolcool is already taking tangible steps that reflect the Festival’s themes of Energy, Nature and the Circular Economy.
Within their operations, the company is focused on material optimisation to reduce waste and has successfully removed gas from its facility to lower its energy footprint. Beyond their own production processes, Woolcool also supports local nature and biodiversity through partnerships with organisations such as Staffordshire Wildlife Trust.
