We believe Solstice is well-positioned to harness these trends through customer-partnered innovations, targeting opportunities that maximize returns, enhance our service capabilities, and increase resilience through market cycles.”
Dr. Rajeev Gautam, Independent Chair of the Board of Directors of Solstice, commented, “Our spin-off from Honeywell will empower Solstice Advanced Materials with increased agility and enhanced operational focus, unleashing our growth potential and unlocking substantial long-term value for stakeholders.
