Paper & Publishing
The printed word is a cornerstone of human communication, from books and magazines to packaging and outdoor advertising. Dow contributes to the "power of print" by constantly improving the quality, readability, and shelf life of papers, labels, and inks. We help papermaking machines run faster and more efficiently. We improve paper strength, and prevent photographs and maps from curling. Dow helps make papers brighter, more uniform, and more acceptable to inks – preventing smudges and ensuring sharp, crisp, permanent print. Dow provides protective and decorative coatings for paper, paperboard, and labels, allowing finishes that range from high-gloss to matte. We help make it possible to coat on the paper, in the paper, laminate a film stock to paper, print on a clear film, and more. Our technology makes paper towels stronger, even when they are wet. Dow helps inks dry rapidly so that everything from great literature to wedding invitations can be printed quickly and efficiently. Dow also makes it possible to produce inks faster, get them to adhere to glass or plastic more easily, and makes clean up a simpler task.
