Industries
Many 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.
The sectors below are where we have done the most work, not the edge of what we do. If your factory uses water, power, gas or compressed air and has equipment that can fail, the playbook is the same one.
The sectors we know best.
Three have their own page. Every one of them already has case studies you can read — and the list is open at the bottom.
Food & Beverage Processing
Water, energy and process visibility for factories where the utility bill and the yield sheet turn out to be the same argument.
Typically meteredWater · Electricity · Natural Gas · Compressed Air · Temperature & Humidity · Process Monitoring
Manufacturing — automotive, plastics & rubber
Compressed air, electrical demand and equipment health on factory floors where the oldest asset in the building is often the one that matters most.
Typically meteredElectricity · Compressed Air · Vibration · Predictive Maintenance · Process Monitoring
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
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
Sector page — Phase 22 case studies
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
Sector page — Phase 22 case studies
Building Materials, Concrete & Aggregates
Concrete, aggregates, cement and heavy industry — gas, power, water and equipment health at factories where the assets outlive the control systems sold with them.

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.

Municipal & Public Utilities
Pump stations, treatment facilities and distribution assets — industrial sites that happen to be publicly owned.

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

Every card links to that sector’s case studies whether or not its full page has shipped. Photography is placeholder pending Tom’s picks (§G5); the tiles are the designed empty state until the shoot lands.
Common questions
What people ask before they see their own sector on the list.
Which industries does Quantify Environmental work in?
Quantify Environmental works with food and beverage processing, general manufacturing, controlled environment agriculture, breweries and beverage, pharmaceutical and chemical, building materials and heavy industry — including concrete and aggregates — bulk handling and rail logistics, municipal and public utilities, and metal fabrication and finishing. The list describes where the work has been, not where it can go: the sensors and the method are the same wherever water, energy, compressed air and heavy equipment are.
Do you work with concrete, aggregate and building-materials factories?
Yes. Concrete, aggregates, cement and building materials are welcome and are a natural fit — batch plants, crushers, dryers and conveyors run large motors, large air systems and large water volumes, and most of them are metered once a month at the property line. The same wireless sensors that meter a dairy meter an aggregate operation, and the same overnight-baseline question is the first one worth asking.
What if our factory does not fit any of these sectors?
It almost certainly still fits. Every sector page on this site exists because a factory in it asked us the same question first: where is the money going, and why can nobody tell me until the bill arrives? If your factory uses water, electricity, natural gas or compressed air, and has equipment that can fail, the assessment works the same way. Call and describe the floor.
Additive per aeo-playbook.md §4b — the headings above are untouched. The FAQPage JSON-LD mirrors this copy exactly.
Every one of these started with a walk around the floor.
Most factories are two or three of these at once, and a few are none of them. A site walk sorts it out in an afternoon, and it costs nothing.
