Shuster. “We look forward to welcoming Sean to Copeland as we build out our leadership team.”
An experienced leader in both public and private companies, Lannon joins Copeland from Axalta (NYSE: AXTA), where he most recently served as the company's CFO.

Prior to joining Axalta, Lannon held financial roles at Trinseo, Endo Pharmaceuticals and PricewaterhouseCoopers. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in accounting from Philadelphia University.
“It’s an exciting time to join Copeland as it transitions to a leading, standalone company in the HVACR and industrial compression industry. As I looked to join Copeland, I was impressed by the company's focus on scaling decarbonization, accelerating electrification and delivering value to its customers,” said Lannon. “Copeland is poised to play a critical role in influencing how sustainability plays into society.”
