Weak economic growth, rising costs and a growing need for investment: the Chemical Industry needs solutions that ensure profitability and at the same time create financial leeway for the transition towards greater sustainability and automation.

Traditional structures and processes are no longer sufficient. What is needed: Efficiency, precision and a consistent demand for innovation.

What it takes:

• AI and Data-based pricing strategies and differentiated market cultivation

• Digitalization and automation in sales and marketing

• Structured programs to increase sales, margins and sales efficiency

• Future-oriented go-to-market strategies and green pricing models

Only those who innovate their business model in a profit-oriented and sustainable manner can secure lasting success in a challenging environment.

Decarbonization and the development of circular value chains are also among the challenges of our time for companies in the chemicals industry. Business models are therefore required that are not only economically viable, but also ecologically future-proof. The ability to strategically anchor sustainability and efficiently implement regulatory requirements is crucial.

Managers must actively shape change: Investments in sustainable technologies and processes are just as necessary as resilient strategies for complying with extensive reporting obligations.

Critical to achieving this:

• Structured ESG reporting in line with regulatory requirements such as the EU taxonomy, CSRD, CBAM and CSDDD
• Integration of sustainability goals into management and strategy
• Clear transformation paths towards climate-neutral business models

Only those who continuously integrate sustainability into management decisions can create a future-proof business.
