When looking for a new or additional supplier for hydrocarbon products, the chemical industry should not only focus on quality, reliability and flexibility. The prospective business partner must also manufacture and deliver in compliance with the legislation, because only in this way can reliable and timely products be expected. The following article provides an overview of the important obligations in the supply chain for hydrocarbon products.

Good supply chain management is essential to ensure the successful operation of companies and their customers. Even the smallest fluctuations in the delivery process, changes in transport routes or delayed coordination processes can lead to delays of time-critical products. Reliability and on-time deliveries play an important role, especially for the chemical industry, which is largely a supplier itself. For many buyers, this is a reason to take a closer look at their suppliers for future business cooperation and to check whether they are able to meet all requirements of the supply chain.

Companies in the Oil and Gas as well as Petrochemical industries are facing many challenges today. The fulfilment of legal requirements, compliance with industrial standards and the increasingly stringent quality specifications of customers often require a great deal of effort and are reflected in rising production costs, among other things. This might explain a growing demand for custom processing. Haltermann Carless' production plant in Harwich, UK, focuses on tailor-made customer solutions and is ideally equipped for custom processing.

Buyers in the pharmaceutical industry are often faced with the question of who is the right supplier for their solvents. Reliability and tailor-made formulations as well as punctual deliveries are important requirements. There are also special requirements for hydrocarbon products such as n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane or iso-octane, especially in the production of active ingredients for drugs. The following article outlines how you can ensure the consistently high purity quality required and also which services you should expect from a supplier.

Modern supply chain management today is digital. It is the only way to effectively plan and control value chains. This is particularly important for chemical logistics: Intelligent analysis and tracking tools ensure optimum transparency in the tracking of sensitive goods and maximum reliability in planning.

Solvents play a major role in the pharmaceutical industry and are a key component in the production of active ingredients for drugs. Potential impurities are therefore a major problem and can lead to production downtime. Buyers in the pharmaceutical industry rely on high-purity solvents and observe the following points.

The agricultural industry has always been committed to modern product solutions that increase the quality of harvests to feed our growing global population and offer the best environmental compatibility.

In today's globalised world, the supply chain is more than just logistics and thus the delivery, handling and storage of products. Companies are looking more and more closely at their own supply chains, their logistics and their suppliers. Because for customers the promise of delivery is playing an increasingly important role, and especially in the chemical industry this means comprehensive, individual and above all flexible services. Read how Haltermann Carless sees itself as an integral part of the value-added chain with innovation, cost, quality and environmental awareness.

Reliable supply is a key factor in the selection of potential suppliers for the pharmaceutical industry. Quality is another criteria – especially when it comes to products with special properties, such as high-purity solvents. The expectations on the producer are high: continuous availability, ensuring relevant product properties and consistent quality. In this blog article we will outline which aspects are important when sourcing solvents for the pharmaceutical industry.

Nowadays competitiveness and success are dependent on a variety of factors. A key factor is fully operational and active management of the value chain. In this article we will explain what supply chain management is to Haltermann Carless as a leading niche company in the chemical industry, and how we implement it.
