Honeywell Company Information and History

Beginning as a hot water heat generator company in 1906, Honeywell Specialty Materials is one of four strategic business groups within Honeywell International. As a diversified technology and manufacturing leader, Honeywell International has excelled in the fields of aerospace, automation, control technologies, automotive products, specialty chemicals, fibers, and electronic materials.

As a global leader in the production of specialty goods, Honeywell has a longstanding tradition of supplying safe, reliable, and high-quality products. Honeywell Chairman and CEO David Cote says, “Not only does Honeywell account for the environment in our operations, but several of our products are also contributing to a healthier world.” Based in Morristown, New Jersey, Honeywell continuously integrates environment-preserving measures into their operations.

Honeywell became a subsidiary of Kaz in July 2002. Kaz is also the parent company of the following brands: Vicks, Duracraft, Bug-Off, Stinger, and Burg. As a manufacturer of air purifiers and air filters for over 75 years, Honeywell is the world’s leading manufacturer of electric vaporizers invented by Kaz.

With facilities in Portugal, China, Taiwan, and Korea, Honeywell manufactures air filters and air purifier products that continually meet and exceed the American Lung Association’s Health House guidelines with meaningful innovations based on consumer research and insights. With a diversity of products to fit your needs, Honeywell offers a series of Home Comfort and Indoor Air Quality Solutions including True HEPA air cleaners and filters.

Honeywell’s success is based on research linking direct consumer needs with new product solutions, outstanding customer service, and operational excellence. “Kaz products continue to provide market leadership positions with extended product assortments of Honeywell air purifiers, air filters, humidifiers, heaters, and fans. Kaz’s clear competitive advantage is the ongoing new product design and innovation initiatives it consistently invests in,” says Debbie Mudway, Vice President of Marketing for Kaz Home Environment.

Honeywell’s HEPA air purifiers and air filters are treated as the gold standard in air purification by allergists. Surveys show that more doctors recommend Honeywell air purifiers than any other brand. The True HEPA Honeywell Air Purifier removes 99.97% of all common household particles such as dust, pollen, tobacco, smoke, and cat dander. The Honeywell glass-fiber HEPA material eliminates airborne particles without the use of expensive ultraviolet bulbs, chemicals, or other treatments.

Honeywell air purifiers feature: sound-reducing technology for ultra-quiet operation; a permanent, lifetime True HEPA filter that needs to be vacuumed only twice a year; an activated carbon pre-filter for odor control; an Intelli-Check electronic filter indicator that lets you know when it’s time to clean and replace filters; SurroundSeal technology for maximum filtration efficiency; and a sleep mode for the quietest operation.

The Honeywell 50250 Air Purifier features 360° intake and discharge of air. This feature ensures maximum air flow from anywhere in the room. The Honeywell 17000 Air Purifier works best in a room size of 14′ x 14′ and comes with a remote control so that you don’t even have to get up to change the settings – perfect for small bedrooms, play rooms, and children’s rooms.
