Other inventions by Honeywell include biodegradable detergent and autopilot. Today, Honeywell is a global multi-industry behemoth with one of the largest installed bases of equipment. It operates through four business segments: aerospace technologies, industrial automation, energy and sustainability solutions, and building automation. Recently, Honeywell has made several portfolio changes to focus on fewer end markets and align with a set of secular growth trends. The firm is working diligently to expand its installed base, deriving around one third of its revenue from recurring aftermarket services.

Solstice Advanced Materials, spun off from Honeywell International in October 2025, has surged 50% as a beneficiary of nuclear energy and semiconductor industry tailwinds. The company operates the only domestic uranium hexafluoride conversion facility and is a leading supplier of copper manganese sputtering targets for advanced chip manufacturing. While the firm benefits from strong growth in both sectors (nuclear up 39% YoY, semiconductors up 19% YoY), overall revenue growth of only 3-4% doesn't justify current valuations, making it a stock to watch if valuations retreat.
