installed products with excellent technical service and an extensive inventory of service parts.
With the 2015 price adjustments, Eaton will continue to offset most cost pressures with cost
reductions and deliver into the market, market competitive prices for the product, value and
service offerings we deliver. The increases will help offset the market pressures surrounding
some of our key raw materials, the impact of currency fluctuations and underlying costs for
material handling and processing.
The price increase will be higher for our Canadian business due to the significant USD
strength during 2014 and early 2015. Canadian pricing will increase an average of 3-5%.
