On an international scale, the chemical industry is one of the biggest - and most fiercely competitive - sectors of the economy. Increasing regulation of the industry and a dynamic process of consolidation make it a particular harsh environment for businesses. The current global economic crises adds to the pressures on companies in the industry.
New Areas of Growth
In contrast to the general picture, some areas of the sector, e.g. the life science complex, have enormous growth potentials. Innovative efforts which make them accessible - in general - entail a high economic risk. The road from research to a marketable product or process is long and costly. Success on the market depends particularly on how close the companies are to the consumers, or how flexible they can react to shifts in demand.
