EATON RECOGNISED ELITE SUPPLIER BY KOREA AEROSPACE INDUSTRIES

KUALA LUMPUR, May 19 (Bernama) -- Intelligent power management company Eaton announced it was recently named an Elite Supplier at the Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) 11th Annual Symposium.

Held in Busan, South Korea, the symposium recognises the top performing KAI suppliers for achieving on-time deliveries, quality standards and customer satisfaction.

This is the second time Eaton has received the prestigious award, according to a statement.

“Over the past three decades, we have had the pleasure of working with a world-class aerospace and defence company like KAI. The award represents our team’s loyalty and dedication to KAI, and we look forward to our continued partnership in the future.

“From the KT-1 Woongbi in the early 1990s to the latest KF-21 Boramae development programme, Eaton continues to be a steadfast and reliable supplier for major fuel and hydraulics components and mission systems equipment,” said Eaton Aerospace Group Managing Director - Asia Pacific, Desmond Goh.

Eaton Aerospace Group has an illustrious history of supporting KAI and the South Korean defence industry.

Recently, Eaton acquired Souriau-Sunbank and Cobham Mission Systems, adding new products ranging from interconnect solutions to air-to-air refuelling, environment systems and missile actuation systems.

By broadening the company’s aerospace product portfolio, Eaton has strengthened its commitment to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) such as KAI and other global industry leaders.

Founded in 1911, Eaton is marking its 100th anniversary of being listed on the New York Stock Exchange, having served customers in more than 170 countries.
