Dow Polymers is a portfolio of polyethylene, polypropylene, and specialty polymer resins serving packaging, infrastructure, and industrial customers globally.
Dow Polymers supplies a broad range of polyethylene grades — including high-density, low-density, and linear low-density variants — along with polypropylene and elastomer compounds used in flexible packaging, rigid containers, pipe systems, and automotive components. Dow operates polymer manufacturing sites in the Americas, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, offering technical support and formulation services to converters and brand owners worldwide.
As part of Dow Inc., the polymer business competes directly with SABIC, ExxonMobil Chemical, and LyondellBasell across commodity and specialty polymer markets. Dow differentiates through its proprietary catalyst technologies, including INSITE and AFFINITY polyolefin-based performance polymers, which command higher margins in specialty packaging applications.
