Key sector of the economy
The chemical industry is a key industry that produces a variety of basic materials and chemicals that are needed in almost every economic sector. Many chemical companies specialise in the production of raw materials that are the basis of end products in other industries. These products range from plastics to fertilisers and even pharmaceutical products, making the chemical industry an essential part in the global value chain and a key contributor to economic development and innovation.
Digital progress in the chemical industry
In the middle of this dynamic landscape, the chemical industry is in a phase of digital transformation. Modern technologies such as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), artificial intelligence and big-data analyses are more and more frequently used to optimise processes and increase efficiency. Companies such as WIKA recognise the need for this development and are integrating advanced digital solution into their product range. This enables chemical companies to monitor their production processes in real time, make precise predictions and quickly reach decisions in order to ensure product quality and minimise downtimes.
Product diversity and industry challenges
The variety of products produced in the chemical industry is impressive. While some companies focus on basic chemicals, others produce special chemicals for specific applications. This variety, however, also presents challenges, especially regarding constantly changing environmental and safety standards. A key aspect here are special material requirements, for which WIKA has the corresponding answers. We offer solutions for aggressive media with high-quality alloys and coatings. For that, refer to modern-day chemistry – WIKA category “Material in the chemical industry”. Nevertheless, thanks to innovation and research, there are immense opportunities to develop new and sustainable chemicals and processes.
