*Power is easy to take for granted. You flip the switch and energy flows. To the lights on the football pitch. To the espresso machine at the café down the street. To the treadmill humming underfoot during your morning workout. We help companies around the world generate, transmit and distribute power more reliably, efficiently and safely. And even though you may not see us, we're there: from the utility substation to the transformers, via the load centres and circuit breakers, all the way to the sockets on the walls of homes and businesses all around town.
Our customers rely on Eaton power management products to help the grid become smarter, more adaptable and responsive. Lighting becomes more efficient. Homes and buildings become more connected and intelligent. And we make sure that it all works together to help reduce power outages, lower energy costs and improve reliability.
It’s amazing to see how something like Eaton lighting on a rugby field makes everyone work a little harder to be better. I love having that impact.
*Every online transaction sets real-life wheels in motion—literally and figuratively. Whether it’s a rush delivery of a last-minute birthday gift. Or a part for the fridge that decided to stop working again. If you get an overnight delivery, it’s probably made possible in part by Eaton.
We’re there energising and protecting the data centres that drive online shops. Powering the engine, fuel and motion control products inside the planes that carry products across continents. Improving the fuel efficiency of delivery vans as they make their daily rounds with better clutch, transmission and engine products. With Eaton’s help, the journey from your computer to your front door is just a quick trip around the world.
We’re behind the scenes, behind the equipment—but we impact people's lives. I’m proud that Eaton is part of the infrastructure making communities great.
*A road that winds through a nearby park or a bustling town centre. The bridges that span sparkling rivers. The street lights that illuminate your way home. Look closer and you see a neighbourhood built on reliable infrastructure. And Eaton plays an important part in helping our customers build, maintain and protect that infrastructure every day.
Our hydraulics products help power the machinery that construction crews count on to fix the roads and build the bridges that connect cities and towns around the world. Our filtration products help local communities’ water-treatment plants protect and maintain water supplies and deliver safe, clean water to homes and businesses. And our advanced LED street lights keep roads and pavements safe, whilst saving energy and improving light quality.
When I see new houses being built or roads getting redone, and Eaton is behind that, even in a small way, that's really important to me.
