Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] |
Restructuring and asset impairment | Restructuring and asset impairment Due to its geographic footprint and the cost-competitive nature of its businesses, the Company is continually seeking more cost-effective means and structures to serve its customers and to respond to fundamental changes in its markets.

The amount of these costs can vary significantly from quarter to quarter and from year to year depending upon the scope, nature, and location of the restructuring activities.

The Company continually evaluates its cost structure, including its manufacturing capacity, and additional restructuring actions are likely to be undertaken.
