Formed in 1920 as Allied Chemical & Dye Corporation by the merger of five industrial concerns: Barrett Chemical Company (founded 1858), General Chemical Company (founded 1899), National Aniline & Chemical Company (founded 1917), Semet-Solvay Company (founded 1895) and the affiliated Solvay Process Company (founded 1881). Renamed Allied Chemical Corporation in 1958. It became Allied Corporation in 1981, acquired Bendix in 1983, and merged with Signal Companies in 1985. Operated as Allied-Signal (or AlliedSignal after 1993). AlliedSignal merged with Honeywell in 1999, and the combined entity is now known under that name.
