Honeywell to Expand and Retool Baton Rouge Plant

Honeywell  Corporation says they will invest over 30-million-dollars to re-tool their Baton Rouge plant to produce a new, environmentally friendly coolant.

Governor  Jindal  says  Honeywell will retain 200 existing jobs,  create  about  a dozen new, high  paying  jobs  and spin-off dozens of indirect jobs  in  the Capitol area. The state is giving Honeywell just under 2-million dollars in tax credits to stay in Baton Rouge.
