SPECFLEX ™ Circular Polyurethane Series

Advancing circularity across automotive applications

The demand for greater automotive sustainability is growing and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and their customers are looking to accelerate solutions that can support vehicle lifecycle management. Dow’s innovative polyurethane solutions use a mass-balance approach with recycled feedstocks to create circular polyurethane-based products for a wide array of automotive applications.  

Produce, use, and retire sustainably

The basis for mobility innovation begins at the design phase and choosing the right raw materials is key to addressing automotive sustainability challenges. Our polyurethane innovations are designed to help customers reach their goals as well as meet their market and regulatory demands for more circular products. Let’s drive the future of automotive sustainability forward.
