Honeywell Energising India’s Flight Paths
Generates $ One billion revenue and exports

Published :March 2014

New Delhi. For 100 years, Honeywell Aerospace has been a pioneer in the advancement of aviation. As the high technology company celebrates its centenary, it continues to innovate and integrate thousands of products and services to advance and deliver safe, efficient, productive and comfortable experiences worldwide.

Today, India remains a key to Honeywell’s global growth strategy, with all four of its strategic business groups present in India generating more than $1 billion in India Revenues and exports. The organisation has grown from 1,000 people in 2002 to more than 13,000 in over 50 locations across India.

Honeywell’s commitment to India, and specifically to its aviation and defence industry, is demonstrated by the fact that every day, aircraft with Honeywell’s high performance technologies fly across the skies of India. From commercial airliners, business jets, and general aviation aircraft to military transports, fighters and helicopters, Honeywell products, systems and services continue to fulfill its commitment to realising the Possibilities of Flight.

Most recently, Honeywell ’s SmartPath® – the world’s first FAAcertified Ground-Based Augmentation System (GBAS) – was selected by the Airports Authority of India (AAI) for Chennai International Airport, India’s third busiest airport. Once implemented, Chennai would become Southeast Asia’s first airport with a satellite-based aircraft approach and landing system, reducing delays and journey times for passengers, lowering fuel cost for airlines, and increasing traffic throughput at the airport.

Honeywell’s contributions to Indian engineering and technology development capabilities continue to increase as we support the growing demands of India’s aviation and defence industries. Honeywell technologists across India develop innovative solutions for its aviation and defence customers worldwide.

Honeywell products reach beyond everyday travellers. India’s borders are secured by fighters containing its high-technology products. Today, Honeywell engine technology is ready to support the Indian Air Force (IAF), with the F125IN engine offered for the Jaguar fighter.

Observed a top Honeywell executive, “We remain committed to continuing to advance India’s indigenous technology, from development through production. More than 40 years ago, we began a partnership with Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) to manufacture and support high-technology products in India. We continue to build on this partnership with additional products and capabilities in HAL and other Indian companies.”
