April 9, 2026

Bartle & Gibson Co. Ltd., an Alberta-based premier distributor of plumbing, heating, and electrical products, and Eaton Industries (Canada) Company have announced a new regional partnership that expands access to Eaton’s electrical solutions across Western Canada.

This agreement enables customers throughout the Western provinces to procure a broad range of Eaton products, including Electrical Power Distribution and Control Solutions, Bussmann series, B-Line series, Crouse-Hinds, and Wiring Devices. Through this partnership, Bartle & Gibson strengthens its electrical offering while providing customers with greater availability and support for Eaton’s industry-leading portfolio.

“With our strong presence in the west through 30+ branches located in Alberta, Saskatchewan, British Columbia and Northwest Territories, we will bring Eaton’s electrical products closer to the customer,” said Greg Stephenson, Bartle & Gibson’s Senior Vice-President – Electrical. “We are proud of this new partnership, which will increase satisfaction across our broad client base, thanks to Eaton’s excellent products for electrical distribution lines.”

Eaton’s diverse portfolio with Bartle & Gibson extends beyond electrical distribution and control, bringing high-quality industrial and commercial fittings, cable tray and strut, fuses, wiring devices, and more to customers across residential, commercial, and institutional markets.

“This partnership presents an opportunity to expand our reach into residential and light commercial markets,” said Kevin Tychkowsky, Channel Director of Eaton. “Bartle & Gibson’s commitment to growth in Western Canada, particularly in Alberta and British Columbia, aligns closely with Eaton’s objectives to serve these areas more effectively. Their strong relationships with this customer base will be instrumental to our mutual success.”

Eaton brings more than 100 years of experience and application knowledge to this new venture which, combined with Bartle & Gibson’s 82-year wholesale distribution history for plumbing, heating and electrical supplies, guarantees a partnership focused on safe and reliable solutions.

Founded in 1911, Eaton has a very strong presence in Canada, currently operating four world-class manufacturing plants, 2 national distribution centres, 6 regional satellite manufacturing locations and 29 offices across the country.
