​Almost every item we use in daily life is made up of chemical components. Without the chemical industry, life would not be quite the same. To make this vast range of products, a huge number of diverse processes at many specialist sites are continually run around the clock. Every site & plant is unique and faces many different dangers, but no matter how big or small, they all need to employ the right technology and workflows to ensure both productivity and safety.

During chemical processes, typical hazards include exposure to toxic substances and the likelihood of explosive situations can be dramatically increased. Working in this kind of industry means that you need to be able to place your trust in the most efficient of safety equipment. Additionally, plant workers must have an in-depth understanding of safety systems and procedures. For all of this, you can rely on Dräger. We have a keen focus on every detail to offer you the best tailor-made concepts and solutions that will keep your plant or site running efficiently and your workers safe.

Areas of application in the Petrochemical & Chemical Industries

Industrial processing plants that manufacture chemicals, usually on a large scale, create new material via the chemical or biological transformation and or separation of materials. Chemical plants use special equipment, units, and technology in the processes. Along with those complex processes comes the potential for dangerous or hazardous substances.

Dräger offers a number of solutions to a wide range of gas detection systems, personal protection equipment and supporting services. In addition, Fire & Gas Systems ably protect the plant and infrastructure itself – giving peace of mind to the workforces at these complex sites.

Tailor-made safety solutions

​The sheer number of products manufactured  and therefore the incredibly diverse amount of chemical processes that take place every day, makes one thing crystal clear – there is simply no ready-made safety solution available for all chemical plants and operations.

But for all of the uncertainties and risks that are presented at your workplace, one thing is always certain. Dräger has more than one hundred years of experience in providing safety solutions and can offer you quality support with equipment and training that are all precisely tailored to the needs and requirements of your plant. This means you can focus on your work – and let us focus on eliminating the risks.

Protecting workers, equipment and the environment

​At most processing plants, chemicals must be stored temporarily, both prior to and after processing. A high strain is placed on all devices that come into contact with the substances during storage and filling. Any weak point or accident may create a hazardous situation.

Specifically with this challenging industry always in mind, Dräger has developed the best cost-efficient equipment, training and solutions for almost every operation and process – so we can help you effectively safeguard not only your plant but the people that work inside it.
