I've never worked in the cosmetic or pharm industry, but I've been in food & bev, pulp & paper, & automotive. By far AB is what was used in most of those categories. Sure, you will see Direct logic, Siemans, Omron, & other, but usually are in lesser percentage.
I personally believe AB has gained market share in the pack industry with the integration of Control Logix motion. Maybe in need to get out more, but to me nobody is doing that as well as AB.
