In 1985, Allied merged with Signal Companies, adding to its aerospace, automotive and engineered materials business. Then in 1999, Honeywell was acquired by AlliedSignal, who elected to retain the Honeywell name for its brand recognition. The headquarters was relocated to the AlliedSignal headquarters in Morristown, N.J. Together the companies shared huge business interests in aerospace, chemical products, automotive parts and building controls.
