Environmental Health & Safety
Dow is committed to the proper handling, use and storage of its products. For more than a decade, we have embraced and advocated Responsible Care®, a voluntary industry-wide commitment to safely handle our chemicals from inception in the laboratory to ultimate disposal.
Dow supports the sale of ethylene oxide for use in industrial applications only. Dow will not knowingly sell into non-supported applications.
Proper handling precautions, safety equipment and personnel training are essential when handling and using ethylene oxide in supported applications.
Specific precautions with regard to human health, the environment and the physical characteristics of ethylene oxide must be obtained from Safety Data Sheets (SDS). Please Contact Us for SDS for your geographical area.
In addition, a recognized industry organization† offers comprehensive safe handling and use information on its web site.
