Featured products
DOWSIL™ 375 Construction & Glass Embedding
Introducing DOWSIL™ 375 Construction & Glass Embedding solution. This two-part polyurethane enables installation of frameless glass balustrades for pure glass aesthetics and invisible bonding, resulting in a clean, modern appearance.
PARALOID™ KM-1 Impact Modifier
PARALOID™ KM-1 Impact Modifier is a highly efficient core-shell Acrylic Impact Modifier contributing to solutions through improved durability and recyclability of PVC-U window profiles.
AMPLIFY™ Si PE 1000 Polymer System
AMPLIFY™ Si PE 1000 Polymer System for wood plastic composite (WPC) building materials – allows even higher levels of recycled plastic and wood content while maintaining or improving WPC performance.
DOWSIL™ Contractors Paintable Sealant
Introducing DOWSIL™ Contractors Paintable Sealant for commercial and residential buildings. This one-part, fast-curing, non-sagging, elastomeric hybrid sealant cures quickly and is paintable as soon as it’s tack-free.
WALOCEL™ MW 40000 PFV
This hydroxyethyl methyl cellulose is very multi-purpose and was developed for cement-based applications, like cement-based tile adhesives and as rheology modifier for coatings. It has a surface treatment which offers a delayed dissolution.
RHOPLEX™ EC-2020
This all-acrylic polymer offers elastomeric roof coatings with excellent flexibility and dirt pick-up resistance, reliable asphalt bleed resistance, and strong adhesion to common roofing materials. It allows coatings to be formulated to meet ASTM D6083 TYPE I and TYPE II standards.
Tall Tales: 7 decades of transforming city skylines
Dow products have played a key role in 70% of the top 20 high-rise buildings in the world.
We’re leveraging our materials science expertise in silicone and polyolefin chemistries to help solve demanding solar application challenges – including six new DOWSIL™ silicone-based adhesives and sealants for solar assembly that offer outstanding durability and resistance to extreme temperatures. With multiple global production sites and a backward integrated supply chain close to customer manufacturing sites, Dow is uniquely positioned to offer proven solutions and reliable supply to the growing and evolving solar market.
Take advantage of the world’s first-ever carbon-neutrality service – available for silicones used in structural glazing, insulating glass and weathersealing applications on high-performance building façades. Produced in compliance with the internationally recognized PAS 2060 verified carbon-neutrality standard, Dow Carbon-Neutral Silicones for Building Façades can support green-building design initiatives, enhance façade sustainability, and improve green-building ratings across the construction industry.
