Honeywell BW Technologies

BW Technologies, founded in 1987 in Calgary, Canada, quickly established itself as a leader in portable gas detection technology. The company focused on designing and manufacturing reliable, user-friendly gas detectors for various industrial applications, such as oil and gas, mining, utilities, and construction. BW Technologies’ commitment to safety and innovation helped it grow rapidly in the gas detection industry.

Honeywell acquired BW Technologies in 2006, integrating it into Honeywell’s gas detection division. BW Technologies became part of Honeywell Analytics, expanding its global reach and product offerings.

BW Technologies is known for offering a wide range of gas detectors, from single-gas to multi-gas monitors, designed to detect various hazardous gases such as oxygen (O2), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and combustible gases (LEL). Their products are known for their durability, ease of use, and compact designs, suitable for both personal and professional safety needs.

Some of their popular gas detector models include:
