Floor Coverings

Dow is developing the chemistry to use RENUVA™ Renewable Resource Technology in formulations for high-performance polyurethane carpet-backing systems. Replacing petroleum-based polyols with bio-based polyols lends to high levels of renewable content in floor-covering applications without compromising performance or affecting the current application process. Even better, RENUVA technology creates polyols without the odor often associated with bio-based products. The floor-covering industry is involved in finding ways to create green flooring products. Dow continues help the industry lower the environmental footprint by using RENUVA Renewable Resource Technology.

Applications:

Carpet backing
Artificial turf backing
