Chemical
The chemical industry is extremely diverse: A huge variety of products are manufactured in many forms, from liquids to powders to granulates and solids, in amounts ranging from a gram to many thousands of tons. Production can often run around the clock, all year long. The process is complicated by handling materials in different hazard classes. All of these challenges require individualized strategies and concepts for the supply chain.
Trends & Challenges
- Automation is increasing in production, filling, packaging, and warehousing.
- Increasing cost pressures require continuous optimization of logistics.
- Sensitive or hazardous materials make supply chain safety & security crucial.
- Fixed production processes and pre-determined batch sizes make it difficult to optimize inventory levels.
- International markets and developments directly influence the supply chain, such as resource scarcity due to international conflicts and collapsing sales markets.
