LONDON, Ohio (WCMH) – Honeywell is closing another Ohio facility and laying off nearly 100 employees.

The international conglomerate, which manufactures products ranging from thermostats to airplane engines, gave notice to the state on April 11 that, starting in October, it will begin to lay off 98 employees based in London. Honeywell will close its Intelligrated manufacturing facility in London by May 2025.

The layoffs will come in two waves: About three dozen employees will be laid off on Oct. 31, and the remainder will be laid off in December. Most of the employees are machine operators, product assemblers, welders, painters and material control managers.

Some employees are represented by the International Association of Bridge, Structural, Ornamental and Reinforcing Iron Workers, according to the notice, but the company did not say how many. Those who aren’t union-represented will be offered severance and “outplacement benefits.”

A spokesperson for Honeywell said in a written statement that the company is closing the manufacturing site due to “decreased demand” and in an effort to consolidate the company’s footprint.

“This is not a plan we made lightly as we realize this will unfortunately affect valued employees,” the spokesperson said.

It’s the third Ohio facility the company has closed – and laid off the corresponding workforce – in less than a year.

Last April, Honeywell announced the permanent closure of its Intelligrated facility in West Chester. It laid off about 223 employees. Months later, in August, the company announced it would lay off 66 employees and close its facility in Fairfield by the end of April 2024.

Honeywell Intelligrated is an arm of Honeywell that focuses on automation technology in manufacturing and distribution centers, according to its website.
