There are several uses of chemistry in industry. Simplest of these are cleaning, painting, storing, manufacturing, preserving, etc. One can name several industries such as, pharmaceuticals, food, beverage, rubber, metal, dairy, nanotechnology, manufacturing, etc., that uses chemistry extensively, for their daily operations. All the medicines that we use are chemicals and have been manufactured by using concepts of chemistry. Food and beverage industries use preservative and other chemicals for processing, preparing and storing these items. Metal extraction from ores is generally a chemical process. Dairy industry uses chemistry concepts in storing and preparing the various dairy products. Nuclear energy is based on concepts of chemistry and physics. Most of the new products we see in the market are a result of application of chemical concepts, examples can be phones, cars, materials, etc. One simply has to name an industry and a product and we can see (or guess) the chemistry behind it.
Hope this helps.
