Home Care & Improvement
When people build or remodel a home, they want energy efficiency, comfort, and convenience. Dow meets those needs in more ways than one. Dow reduces energy costs with foam insulation systems for walls, basements, entry doors, garage doors, and roofs. With these systems, Dow keeps homes warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. Our insulation also dampens sound, providing a quieter, more relaxing environment. Our caulks and sealants plug gaps and holes anywhere in the house, eliminating drafts, moisture damage, and entry points for pests. Dow also conserves energy in refrigerators and freezers, with insulation that holds in the cold. We add value to other appliances, too. For example, we provide impact strength to food processors, heat resistance to microwaves, strength to power tool housings, and versatility to vacuum cleaners. Dow products help homes look better with vinyl floors that resist scuffs, tiles that repel stains, fabrics that resist moths, ceiling tiles that don't sag, and carpets that are strong and durable. Because of Dow, paints are easier to apply and to clean. Special finishes protect walls and other surfaces. In-ground bait systems kill termites without disturbing people or pets. In addition, Dow innovations – such as particleboard made from agricultural fibers and freon alternatives – preserve and protect earth's natural resources.
