Chemical processing equipment deals with chemicals that can be both dangerous and unpredictable. Find out how the industry has evolved to handle these both securely and efficiently at the PPMA Total Show.

Why is chemical processing equipment important?

Chemical processing equipment deals with a wide range of toxic or hazardous chemicals, which can react when brought into contact with specific materials. Therefore, this equipment needs to meet the criteria of all chemicals it deals with.

Chemical processing equipment is incredibly important to optimise resources usage, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability. This equipment plays a pivotal role in maintaining safety by managing hazardous materials and conditions, thereby safeguarding personnel and the environment. 

Last but not least, chemical processing equipment enables precise control over processes, ensuring product quality and consistency in critical industries. The scalability of this equipment allows for flexibility in production capacity, adapting from laboratory-scale experiments to large-scale industrial operations to meet market demands effectively.

Chemical processing machinery and equipment

Relevant industries

Chemical processing is an essential part of the manufacture of very wide-ranging product categories such as pharmaceuticals, soaps, detergents, cosmetics, food, beverages, veterinary, e-liquids, inks, and adhesives.

The history of commercial chemical processing goes back many hundreds of years, with notable landmarks such as the production of sulphuric acid in 1736, rubber in 1839 and aspirin in 1899. Today it is estimated that there are more than 70,000 chemical products available to consumers and industry.
