Eaton10-K: Inflation impact

Struggling to recoup costs from significant inflation in materials, energy, and labor.

What happened

Eaton notes that significant inflation is impacting its costs, and its ability to pass these increases to customers is limited. This pressure creates a strong incentive to invest in cost-saving technologies, process automation, and procurement optimization software.
