Sustainable solutions throughout the vehicle lifecycle

To drive sustainability that supports resilient, low-carbon mobility, we believe every automotive company, vehicle brand, and individual has a unique responsibility. At Dow, that means accelerating our commitment to sustainability: climate protection, engineering safer materials, and enabling circularity.

To emerge as winners in the race to sustainable, lower-carbon mobility, OEMs are acting across the entire lifecycle of a vehicle. Materials science and collaboration are powerful assets in navigating this transition. That’s why MobilityScience™ was created – to provide a single point of expertise in materials science that covers the full spectrum of the sustainable mobility challenge while helping to enable the next generation of electric vehicles (EV) and autonomous vehicles (AV).

Sustainable by design

Our design principle is to use the least materials possible to achieve the highest performance possible. Collaborating with customers early in the design phase enables Dow MobilityScience™ experts to recommend and create tailored, lab-tested material solutions that unlock efficiencies in each phase of the vehicle’s life.

Optimal chemistry and material specifications – thoroughly tested in our labs – deliver a wide range of performance benefits to OEMs seeking to maximize sustainability in their designs.

Circularity: the key to low-carbon mobility

EVs play an essential role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions but the transition is complex. We also need to accelerate circularity strategies to ensure the proper disassembly and recycling of existing vehicles, enabling more sustainable vehicle end-of-use.


Prioritizing circularity will help the industry be at the forefront of the crucial sustainability track of the EV movement, accelerating the reduction of environmental impact beyond tailpipe emissions.

“It starts with the carbon footprint of a car. OEMs focus on carbon emissions during manufacture and use. As a material science leader, Dow can help enable not just EV production but also reduce the embedded carbon used to make those materials.”
Jon Penrice, President of Dow Mobility
