Independent research commissioned by Datacor and conducted by Tech-Clarity surveyed chemical manufacturers and distributors to find out where the industry is with AI, what is working, and what is getting in the way. The findings challenge several assumptions.
The chemical industry has never been one to chase technology trends. When a process deviation can mean a failed batch, a compliance issue or a safety incident, adopting anything unproven carries real risk.
But caution is not the same as inaction. When Tech-Clarity surveyed over 250 process industry companies, with in-depth analysis of the chemicals sector specifically, a clear picture emerged: the industry is already moving on AI and the companies furthest along are finding value in areas that matter most to formulators and process professionals.
