History and Development
Dow’s origins trace back to the company founded by Herbert Henry Dow, which became one of the leading chemical producers in the United States.
Throughout the twentieth century, the company expanded its product portfolio and global presence, developing materials and technologies used in industries such as plastics, agriculture, electronics, and infrastructure.
In a major restructuring within the global chemical industry, Dow and DuPont merged and later separated their operations into independent companies focused on different segments.
As part of this process, Dow Inc. emerged as the company dedicated to the materials science business, bringing together operations related to plastics, industrial chemicals, and performance materials.
Since becoming an independent company, Dow has focused on innovation in materials science, operational efficiency, and sustainability initiatives, including investments in circular economy solutions, emissions reduction, and more sustainable packaging technologies.
Today, Dow operates as one of the largest global materials science companies, supplying essential products and technologies to industrial markets worldwide.
