Eaton has been doing business with Supsan since the 70s.
Supsan is a supplier of engine valves to Eaton, manufactured and
supplied under an Eaton license agreement since 1970, making
Supsan a partner in the production and supply of low to medium
volumes business.
Through our licensing agreement, Supsan plays an important
role in ensuring that Eaton can meet the customer’s needs in
many markets. Likewise, the license agreement grants Supsan
technology and support and allows them to develop their
business beyond Eaton.
Supsan is one of the top 20 supplier to Eaton VG EMEA.
Despite the license arrangement Supsan is managed as any
other supplier, with the same expectations for quality, delivery
and cost competitiveness. Together, we have faced business
challenges through which I have appreciated their commitment to
finding solutions and maintaining our long standing professional
relationship.
