Case Study: Henkel accelerates time to market with Albert Invent

How Digital Transformation Accelerated Speed to Market

Henkel Adhesive Technologies, a global leader in adhesives and sealants, faced a challenge in harnessing the vast amount of data from its decades of R&D. With over 2,800 innovators using disparate systems like spreadsheets and paper notebooks, the company needed a unified platform to improve efficiency, collaboration, and time to market. They partnered with the vendor Albert Invent to implement its end-to-end R&D platform to centralize this data and enable digital transformation.

Albert Invent provided a centralized digital system that integrated inventory, experiments, and workflows into a single source of truth. The solution was rolled out globally, and the results were significant: over 2,800 users now leverage the platform to manage more than 160,000 formulas and 580,000 experiments. This has led to increased collaboration, reduced administrative tasks, and a significant potential for accelerating speed to market and achieving cost savings.
