ComfortScience™
What does comfort mean to you?
Everyone needs comfort – it’s fundamental for quality of life and a sense of wellbeing. At Dow, we know that comfort means different things to different people in different contexts – whether they’re enjoying deep, restorative sleep, or simply resting and relaxing.
That’s why we work to understand how people experience comfort. Combining that with our scientific experience and technical know-how, we’ve produced a range of high-quality technologies that address different needs and expectations – so your customers can experience more restful nights and more productive days.
Curious about how we can enhance the comfort experience together? You can join us in our ComfortScience™ Studios – equipped with measuring technologies to evaluate and improve sleep solutions – to collaborate on the comfort that matters to your customers.

Our sustainable offering
At Dow, we are committed to advancing a sustainable future for Polyurethanes that are solutions for consumer comfort applications. Working with our customers and partners across the value chain, we are optimizing our technologies to enable benefits such as access to circular and bio-based feedstocks, improved recyclability, resource reduction, and reduced emissions.
Our solutions also meet high standards of safety, including halogen-free options and support for compliance with regulatory standards such as REACH.
Advancing a carbon neutral future for comfort
Our reduced carbon offerings enable a lower carbon footprint for our customers in an comfort application – from pillows to athleisure footwear.
This net carbon reduction is based on responsible sourcing of low-carbon feedstocks as well as Dow’s actions to reduce carbon emissions in the manufacturing process, resulting in lower embedded carbon in our customer’s products.

Closing the loop for comfort
Through advanced or chemical recycling, hard-to-recycle post-consumer and post-industrial waste is transformed into sustainable feedstocks. End-of-life polyurethane products such as mattresses are broken down into their base compounds which can be used to manufacture new products.
This keeps end-of-life material out of the waste stream and reduces the need for non-renewable feedstocks.
