Dow expands bio-circular product offering

Dow’s new certification makes all isocyanate products produced at the Freeport facility available with bio-based material from Dow’s Ecolibrium^™ portfolio through mass balance. This is made possible by using alternative feedstocks based on bio-circular materials at the beginning of the company's integrated manufacturing process. In turn, customers will see zero impact to product quality while achieving material with increased sustainability benefits and reduced carbon footprint.

“Achieving ISCC PLUS certification at our Freeport MDI Complex marks a significant milestone for Dow. It validates our commitment to credible sustainability practices and strengthens supply chain traceability, advancing our journey to deliver more sustainable products to our customers,” said Chris Breeck, TXO Plant and Production Leader.

Applying innovative technologies, more sustainable products will be available in North America and certified by ISCC PLUS through mass balance featuring Ecolibrium bio-circular material:

• PAPI^™ 580N REN Polymeric MDI for polyiso insulation boards and insulated metal panels.
• PAPI^™ 23 REN for furniture and mattress foams.
• SPECFLEX^™ NES 1540 REN for automotive noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) solutions.
• ISONATE^™ 143L REN Modified MDI for coatings, adhesives, sealants and elastomer formulations.

The recent certification of the Freeport MDI Complex provides the opportunity to expand Dow's offering over time as other alternative feedstocks become available in the North America region.
