Restructuring and Other Charges
During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, we recorded restructuring charges of $8.5 million, $5.3 million and $2.8 million, respectively. These charges were primarily related to reorganization activities.
For the year ended December 31, 2014, European segment charges of $4.8 million were primarily related to severance from staff reductions in Central and Southern Europe as well as reorganization costs in Central Europe. International segment charges of $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 were primarily related to staff reductions in South Africa, Australia, and Brazil and asset disposals in Australia and South Africa, as the Company continues to focus manufacturing efforts in line with our core products and respond to changing economic conditions.
For the year ended December 31, 2013, European segment charges of $3.0 million were primarily related to staff reductions in Germany and Netherlands. International segment charges of $2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 were primarily related to staff reductions in Australia and South Africa.
For the year ended December 31, 2012, North America, Europe and International segment charges of $1.5 million, $1.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively were primarily related to severance costs associated with staff reductions.
