Automatic Dishwashing Solutions

Today’s consumers want products that are easy to use, don’t require pre-washing or manual drying, and are easy on the environment.

We help formulators meet those needs with our automatic dishwashing solutions. From technologies that increase soil removal efficiency and minimize water and energy use to biodegradable surfactants and dispersants that minimize environmental impact, Dow can help you formulate for a variety of applications - from tables and pouches to gels and rinse aids.

Hand Dishwashing Components

Formulations for hand dishwashing blend various chemistries for effective cleaning. Ingredients like surfactants, solvents and amines lift soil while chelants and dispersants counter elements like water hardness.

But hand dishwashing must go beyond simply tackling leftovers on dishes. Consumers expect generous foam and short drying time with a rich texture that leaves their skin feeling great. With Dow solutions, you can find the right mix of ingredients to provide the best hand dishwashing experience.
