Thermoset Inc Recognized By Eaton For Supplier Excellence
Cleveland, OH - June 3, 2008 - Diversified industrial manufacturer Eaton Corporation honored 42 of its best suppliers at its third Supplier Awards Program on April 1 at the downtown Cleveland Marriott.
Among the award winners was Thermoset, Inc., who received recognition from Eaton in the direct supplier category for friction components.
Richard D. Holder, vice president - Eaton Business System, said, "Of the thousands of Eaton suppliers around the world these are the best in terms of quality, productivity, innovation and technology."
The award winners fall within one of three supplier categories: Direct, Indirect or Logistics. Direct Materials suppliers are those which provide goods used directly in the making of products (i.e., bearings, gaskets, seals, castings); Indirect Materials and Services suppliers provide goods used to make products or support the business (i.e., cutting fluid, maintenance repair, office supplies) and Logistics suppliers handle the transportation of goods inbound from the supplier and outbound to customers, as well as indirect package transportation.
John McGourthy, Jr, CEO and Jon DeBoer, President of Thermoset, Inc. added "Receiving the prestigious Eaton Premier Supplier Award is an outstanding accomplishment for Thermoset. We have our employees to thank. Their continued commitment toward Quality, Continuous Improvement and Customer Service was the major contributor to the achievement of this award. Our customer/supplier relationship with Eaton Corporation has been a long-term association that has created very positive value for both organizations." Thermoset is a privately held ISO/TS-16949:2002 and ISO-14001 certified corporation headquartered in Mequon, Wisconsin USA.
