COVID-19 Impact on Flow Chemistry Market

The recent outbreak of coronavirus had a negative impact on the flow chemistry market as the pandemic has disrupted value chains and prompted governments to act. At the beginning of the crisis, businesses and governments focused appropriately on protecting people and devising strategies to recover from a severe health, economic, and social shock. Furthermore, the chemical (and other industrial) industries were keenly aware of the pandemic's impact on stocks (e.g., regulating volumes or shifting production locations to accommodate fluctuating demand) and flows (e.g., changing supply routes to guarantee supply of consumer goods or intermediates). Consumers are more concerned about sustainability, and as a result, they are selecting products based on variables such as circularity and carbon footprint. Furthermore, increased investment in renewable energy, energy efficiency, and transportation de-carbonization has resulted from consumer awareness about carbon emissions.

These changes have significantly impacted chemical end markets, particularly the automotive and construction industries. COVID-19 has exacerbated the situation by decreasing the value of the automobile and construction industries (among others) and disrupting current supply lines. Chemical companies are increasingly adopting digital technology as a result of increased efficiency and reliability. Advanced market sensing, enhanced operational optimization, and expanded use of "in silico" simulations have all benefited many businesses in various industries. With the rapid arrival of COVID-19 and the resulting shutdown of facilities and work sites, companies' existing digital technologies provided an advantage, but they were frequently insufficient for the level of remote working and cybersecurity that was suddenly required.
