Low VOC Products for High Performing Buildings

How can we improve the quality of air indoors, where we spend most of our time?

One way is to opt for products that not only perform well but also come with a lower volatile organic compound (VOC) content. Because of their chemical composition, VOCs can evaporate under room temperature and are being released as gas which may compromise indoor air quality for a period of time. VOC’s are common to many types of everyday products in both indoor and outdoor environments, VOCs have been under increasing scrutiny and regulations.

Offering a range of high performance, low VOC, neutral cure silicones in Europe, Dow can help improve your indoor air quality. Our high-performance products meet or exceed all current industry standards and specifications, and we continue to work to further reduce VOCs levels.
