Honeywell Increases Production at Louisiana Facility for Ultra-Low-Global-Warming-Potential Solution
Increased supply of Honeywell Solstice ze (HFO-1234ze) for foam insulation, aerosol propellant, refrigeration and air conditioning applications to help meet strong demand
Honeywell announced Dec. 1 that its Baton Rouge, Louisiana, facility has doubled production capacity of Honeywell Solstice ze (HFO-1234ze), an ultra-low-global-warming-potential and energy-efficient solution compared to other current technologies. Solstice ze is used in foam insulation, as an aerosol propellant, and in refrigeration and air conditioning applications.
Solstice ze is part of Honeywell’s Solstice line of products based on hydrofluoroolefin technology, which helps customers reduce their environmental impact and increase energy efficiency without sacrificing end-product performance or safety. With multiple regulations stemming from the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol, the demand for lower-GWP solutions continues to grow. This investment will help ensure global supply needs are met.
