The Sensors You Don’t See: How Real‑Time Data Is Transforming Industrial Operations

You don’t see it, but it changes everything. Across our sites, the deployment of connected industrial sensors is changing how decisions are made.

Real-time monitoring allows teams to anticipate issues, reduce downtime, and improve energy efficiency.

Together with IMI, more than 5,000 sensors are already in place across 25 sites in 11 countries. Building on this momentum, the plan for total deployment is 9,000 by 2027.

These connected devices, often referred to as Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, continuously measure vibration and temperature on critical equipment. It’s a shift in how plants run: from fixed maintenance schedules to decisions based on real-time data.

Less guesswork > Fewer breakdowns > More reliable operations >

Because digitalization only matters when it improves how things work on the ground.
