V PLUS Perform™
Building Better. Building Sustainable.
At Dow we imagine a future with high-performing, sustainable building materials.
We imagine building design that delivers resource efficiency, allowing our customers to do more with less, with products that are sourced, manufactured, and distributed with a lower carbon footprint.
We imagine a world where building better means construction solutions are developed in collaboration with our customers, bringing together Dow’s material science expertise with our customers knowledge of market needs.
Sustainable Panel Insulation
Through the V PLUS Perform™ next program we combine panel insulation technology with mass balance ingredients to design more energy efficient and sustainable buildings. The EU Green Deal is driving the industry towards significant carbon reduction goals by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2050. V PLUS Perform™ next enables energy efficient solutions with lower embodied carbon for both commercial and residential building applications.
Sustainability Designed For You
When it comes to sustainability in the construction industry, one size doesn’t fit all. Dow V PLUS Perform™ next builds on our legacy high-performance panel insulation technology with more sustainable, reduced carbon ingredients that can be customized to your business needs.
Reduced Carbon Footprint
More than 25% of the energy used in the production process of V PLUS Perform™ next insulation technology is renewable and backed by Renewable Energy Systems (RES) certificates1.
The EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive is driving the transition to energy efficient, decarbonized building stock by 2050. Using V PLUS Perform™ next in their products, panel manufacturers can reduce Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions (GHG)2 to meet the increased demand for products that support the transition towards more sustainable and energy efficient buildings.
Upgrade to the future of sustainable building and experience the benefits of V PLUS Perform™ next for yourself.

Made With Recycled Content
At Dow, we're committed to reducing waste and promoting circularity with our innovative production process.
Bio-circular and recycled feedstocks (biogenic and non-biogenic waste) are converted into the raw materials used in V PLUS Perform™ next, eliminating the need for incineration or landfilling. With up to 40% bio-circular and recycled content, externally validated by ISCC PLUS certification1, you can trust that our materials contribute to sustainable buildings.
We use alternative feedstocks in the production of MDI, which are allocated using the mass balance chain of custody approach, also externally validated by ISCC PLUS1. V PLUS Perform™ next helps to keep end-of-life material out of the waste stream while reducing the need for nonrenewable feedstocks.
Join us in reducing waste and closing the loop with more innovative building solutions.

Energy Efficient Insulation
With less material required to deliver the same energy performance, V PLUS Perform™ next achieves up to 18 mW/mK aged lambda1, helping designers to improve the thermal performance of buildings – a crucial feature for the next generation of European buildings.
Support the future of energy efficient building design with V PLUS Perform™ next.
How We Developed V PLUS Perform™
At Dow, collaboration is at the heart of everything we do. That's why we brought together panel manufacturers, architects, and sustainability experts to design an insulation technology that addresses today's industry challenges and needs.
Through the V PLUS Perform™ Program our customers have access to a collaborative platform, expertise, and capabilities to support the development of innovative solutions to lead the sustainability transformation of the construction industry.
We understand that the definition of sustainability varies depending on location, climate, and local regulations. We work closely with customers to define the sustainability features that matter most to them and deliver the technology and know-how that best supports their strategy and products.
