Automotive & Transportation
Innovations in transportation continue to overcome barriers of distance, connecting people worldwide. Dow makes transportation more reliable and comfortable by constantly improving the performance and efficiency of vehicles that move both people and products. Dow materials enable manufacturers to make cars lighter, stronger, more stylish, and more energy-efficient. We help create car bodies that are tough and more impact and scratch-resistant. Instrument panels using Dow products provide structural integrity, antifreeze and lubricants developed by Dow protect engines and braking systems, and parts last longer under the hood. Dow also protects the appearance of cars with paints and finishes that are tough and clear. People also benefit from a quieter, more comfortable ride. Our integrated structural systems absorb energy, and our foams help provide comfort, safety, and soundproofing. In aircraft, foams help seat cushions float, antifreeze agents de-ice wings, and tougher but lighter composites maximize fuel efficiency. On boats and ships, Dow foams provide buoyancy to hulls, and lightweight plastics increase speed. Dow foams also protect fragile products during shipping, and efficiently insulate trailers and railcars that ship goods and other sensitive products.
