A Century of InnovationIn 1911, Joseph Eaton invested in a bold new transportation idea—the first gear-driven truck axle. More than a century later, that pioneering spirit remains at the heart of our company. We have grown significantly through organic expansion and by uniting some of the world's most respected industry brands, but our dedication to innovation has never wavered.
Today, Eaton is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (ETN) and has paid dividends every year since 1923—a reflection of our long-term stability and commitment to creating value.

Our Mission: Make What Matters Work
Every day, buildings, vehicles, and machines rely on power to operate. Our job is to ensure that power works safely, efficiently, reliably, and sustainably—because that is what truly matters.
From hospitals and data centers to factories, aircraft, and the electrical grid, the world's critical infrastructure depends on us. We help customers manage electrical, hydraulic, and mechanical power more effectively, enabling businesses to operate more efficiently and sustainably.
Global Reach and Market Leadership
Across our four business segments—Electrical, Aerospace, Vehicle, and eMobility—we hold market-leading positions across key geographies and end markets. Our 92,000+ employees operate in more than 160 countries, delivering solutions that protect people and assets while improving productivity.
Our portfolio spans the entire power chain—from the grid to data centers, commercial buildings, factories, homes, and aircraft. Whether on the ground or in the air, we partner closely with customers to solve complex and evolving energy challenges.
Strategic Investment for the Future
We are investing decisively in high-growth markets aligned with global trends of electrification, digitalization, and reindustrialization. Key initiatives include:
Acquisitions to expand leadership in electrification, digital infrastructure, and aerospace, including next-generation solid-state transformer technology and advanced liquid-cooling solutions
Manufacturing capacity expansions across North America to support data center markets, transformer production, and aerospace capabilities
A new advanced engineering and training center in Dubai to extend capabilities across the EMEA region
Innovation in Action
