Honeywell Launches New Research Chemicals Business To Optimize Product Partnerships With Researchers

New business provides researchers with a partner in the high-purity solvents and analytical reagents market that delivers consistent results, supported by a new e-commerce website that enables a seamless customer experience

New Delhi, December 28, 2016: Honeywell (NYSE: HON) has announced the launch of a new business, Honeywell Research Chemicals, that will now include several brands and solvent and inorganic chemical products that were acquired from Sigma-Aldrich in December 2015. Honeywell Research Chemicals combines more than 200 years of industry expertise and experience with a level of customization that meets the fast-changing needs of advanced researchers, who require a reliable supply of critical reagents and solvents in the analytical testing, drug discovery and applied materials sectors.

Advanced research has undergone significant changes in recent years, triggered by changes in the life science and drug discovery markets, and increasing consumer interest in everyday science applications that affect their quality of life, such as food safety and air pollution. Researchers have come to expect chemical suppliers to provide a convenient e-commerce experience, along with innovative supply chain solutions, that are tailor-made to their exact specifications.
