American energy efficiency businesses are starting to take the China market seriously. Honeywell Inc., with sales of $250 million in China in 1994, has formed a joint venture with a China Petrochemical Corp. (Sinopec) to retrofit its oil refineries with process controls. Insulation giant Owens-Corning Fiberglass Co. intends to invest $100 million in China between 1995 and 2000. A third case is Armstrong International,which has formed a joint venture withChina's General Machinery andEngineering Corp. to improve steam system efficiency in a variety of industrial applications.
