Aerospace and Defense

Enabling new frontiers

Advancements in aerospace are transforming the way we communicate. With launch cadence and frequency at an ever-increasing pace, the demand for cost-effective, reliable — and scalable — protective materials is at an all-time high. As satellites lead the charge, connecting the world with a faster, more reliable network is dependent on these factors, and offering lighter weight, innovative, protective materials — with a global supply chain — is the design and manufacturing challenge.

As silicone pioneers, the products that we introduced back in the early days of aviation are still recognized as industry standards. The extraordinary properties of silicone make it naturally designed for aerospace applications, and we are committed to staying at the forefront of the future. By exploring the Dow Aerospace Ecosystem and working together on next-generation materials … the possibilities are infinite.
