Chemical industry covers activities that manufacture chemical products or use chemical processes in their production. It includes not only the production of chemicals and pharmaceuticals, but also refineries and plastics and rubber industries. The most energy-intensive sectors are chemical production and oil refining.

Chemistry is present in all value chains

More than 95 % of all manufactured products rely on chemistry and today the chemical industry produces a wide range of goods used in our daily lives. The industry also helps to develop new solutions to produce energy, reduce energy demand and ensure access to clean water and food, as well as to meet many other global challenges. Chemical companies produce key inputs for a range of other processes and activities, from basic chemicals to pharmaceuticals. Refineries also produce various types of fuels, including biodiesel.

Chemical and other process industries require high chemical stability even under extreme temperature conditions. Most chemical processes involve corrosive media. However, there is great variation depending on the industry in question, but the common factor is that transport and handling must be carried out safely. A properly selected polymer provides high resistance to the effects of strong acids and bases as well as solvents, salts and alcohols. Fluoroplastics provide better chemical resistance than stainless steel at a significantly lower cost than precious metals, which would otherwise be the alternative.

Lyma delivers solutions to the chemical industry that ensure high functionality, safety, sustainability and cost efficiency. With innovative, high-quality products and expert knowledge, we offer solutions that can enhance performance, reduce waste, minimise downtime and increase safety.

The chemical industry is energy intensive

The chemical industry is and will remain an energy-intensive industry, and is undergoing a transition towards climate neutrality by 2045.
