Industries

Nine sectors. One playbook: measure, then save.

The common thread isn’t the industry. It’s the gap. Every one of these facilities uses water. Every one uses energy. Every one has equipment that can fail. And almost every one is managing those assets based on monthly bills, annual audits, and decades of gut instinct.

Beside this are three of those facilities on one axis — a food plant’s water, a manufacturing floor’s compressed air, a greenhouse’s lighting load — each drawn as a percentage of its own busiest hour. Three sectors, three utilities, and not one of them returns to zero overnight.

The nine sectors we serve.

Three have their own page at launch. All nine already have case studies you can read.

  • Photo slot · industry-food-beverage

    Food & Beverage Processing

    Water, energy and process visibility for plants where the utility bill and the yield sheet are the same argument.

    Typically meteredWater · Electricity · Natural Gas · Compressed Air · Temperature & Humidity · Process Monitoring

  • Photo slot · industry-manufacturing

    Manufacturing — automotive, plastics & rubber

    Compressed air, electrical demand and equipment health on plant floors where the oldest asset is often the most important one.

    Typically meteredElectricity · Compressed Air · Vibration · Predictive Maintenance · Process Monitoring

  • Photo slot · industry-agriculture

    Controlled Environment Agriculture

    Water, climate and energy monitoring for greenhouses and indoor growing operations, where the environment is the product.

    Typically meteredWater · Electricity · Natural Gas · Temperature & Humidity · Process Monitoring

  • Photo slot · industry-breweries

    Breweries & Beverage

    Litres of water per litre of product — the number every brewer already tracks, measured continuously instead of monthly.

    Typically meteredWater · Electricity · Natural Gas · Temperature & Humidity

  • Photo slot · industry-pharmaceutical

    Pharmaceutical & Chemical

    Continuous records for environments where "we check it quarterly" is not a satisfying answer.

    Typically meteredWater · Natural Gas · Temperature & Humidity · Silo & Material Level · Process Monitoring

  • Photo slot · industry-heavy-industry

    Building Materials & Heavy Industry

    Gas, electricity and equipment health at plants where the assets outlive the control systems that were sold with them.

    Typically meteredElectricity · Natural Gas · Compressed Air · Vibration · Predictive Maintenance

  • Photo slot · industry-bulk-logistics

    Bulk Handling & Rail Logistics

    Level, temperature and equipment monitoring across sites where the product spends most of its life in transit or in a tank.

    Typically meteredElectricity · Compressed Air · Silo & Material Level · Temperature & Humidity · Predictive Maintenance

  • Photo slot · industry-municipal

    Municipal & Public Utilities

    Pump stations, treatment facilities and distribution assets — industrial plants that happen to be publicly owned.

    Typically meteredWater · Electricity · Vibration · Predictive Maintenance · Process Monitoring

  • Photo slot · industry-metal-fab

    Metal Fabrication & Finishing

    Compressed air, gas and air-quality monitoring in shops where the utilities and the safety case overlap.

    Typically meteredElectricity · Natural Gas · Compressed Air · Temperature & Humidity · Predictive Maintenance

Photography is placeholder pending the cull (§K.3 #27). Every card links to that sector’s case studies whether or not its full page has shipped — the six Phase-2 pages are §K.3 #25.

Not sure which one you are?

Most plants are two or three of these at once. A site walk sorts it out in an afternoon, and it costs nothing.
