Industrial 4.0 EU Chemicals Industry Action Plan

As outlined in the European Chemicals Industry Action Plan, the EU’s Industry 4.0 agenda places strong emphasis on safety, digitalisation, and automation as key enablers of a resilient and competitive industrial sector. To meet these requirements by 2030, asset owners are increasingly expected to reduce physical strain and hazardous manual work, leverage operational data to support digital transformation, and address structural labour shortages through intelligent automation.

KEWAZO supports this transition by enabling safer and more efficient material handling on industrial sites. By reducing manual lifting and repetitive high-risk tasks, its robotic solutions directly contribute to the EU’s Zero Harm objectives while improving productivity and working conditions. At the same time, data generated through KEWAZO’s data analysis platform KEWAZO ONSITE provides asset owners with actionable insights, supporting data-driven decision-making and compliance with Industry 4.0 standards.

"Industry 4.0" requirements by:

• Safety & Efficiency: Reducing physical strain and hazardous manual work (Zero Harm goal).

• Data Analysis: Using our portal’s data to support the digital transition required by the EU.

• Automation: Solving the labor shortage in the industry through smart robotics.

Through smart robotics and integrated data analytics, KEWAZO helps industrial operators bridge the gap between regulatory ambition and on-site reality. LIFTBOT is accelerating the digital transition of Europe’s chemicals and process industries while ensuring safety, efficiency, and long-term operational sustainability.
