The proprietary “symex Industry 5.0 digitization concept” sets new standards in the process industry. It enables consistently networked, flexible, and highly automated production of pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and chemical products—including ointments, gels, makeup, mascara, lubricants, fertilizers, and much more.

Five technically coordinated modules raise the bar for process reliability, efficiency, sustainability, and maximum flexibility to a whole new level. Resistant to external circumstances.

The modular architecture allows for flexible combination of functional modules. These include:

1. App platform (remote access to plant data, process conditions, and reports)

2. Fully automated recipe execution and management (in-line process and quality control with “golden batch” verification)

3. Real-time digital process simulation (virtual twin)

4. Sustainability assurance (comprehensive energy monitoring, analysis, and documentation, including CO2 footprint calculation)

5. Predictive maintenance (condition analysis, full transparency, and planning reliability for maintenance, service intervals, and spare parts throughout the entire life cycle)

All modules can also be retrofitted to existing production systems.

The concept was officially awarded the LOSGRÖSSE 1+ Award in 2025.
