Statement about Honeywell and dsm-firmenich

Honeywell and dsm-firmenich have reached a settlement to resolve their disputes related to Honeywell Spectra® MG BIO Blue fiber. Terms of the agreement are confidential.

Honeywell has resolved this matter amicably and will continue to supply Spectra MG BIO Blue fiber globally. Honeywell is dedicated to high-quality standards and customer satisfaction, meeting diverse needs worldwide.

Spectra MG BIO Blue is a blue colored Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber that is fifteen times stronger than steel by weight and three times stronger than polyester by volume while still being ultra-lightweight and offering a small diameter/footprint.

The distinct color contrast allows healthcare professionals to perform with enhanced accuracy and efficiency, thereby enabling greater safety and comfort for patients. For orthopedic surgeons, this results in improved knot security, precise knot placement, smooth tie-down, and increased resistance to fraying.
