Dow Chemical: strive to realize the concept of sustainable chemistry
by sponsoring large-scale events such as the Shanghai WorldExpo, Dow Chemical tries to let customers and the public know how the company is trying to help people achieve a better life
after several months of global coating materials business integration, Dow Chemical is gaining more and more market recognition in this field. In order to make the concept of "sustainable chemistry" deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, The world's leading chemical company is stepping up social promotion
on October 26, Dow Chemical officially became the exclusive sponsor of the chemical and materials science category of the eight U.S. pavilions at the 2010 Shanghai WorldExpo. According to the agreement, Dow will provide environmental friendly products (environmental friendly water-based coatings) and solutions for the U.S. Pavilion and other WorldExpo construction projects. At the same time, the company announced that it will also provide all-round support for this WorldExpo
previously, Dow's solutions have been applied in many Expo construction projects. On July 8, shutailong extruded polystyrene (XPS) thermal insulation board under Dow Chemical officially entered the Ronald Alps Pavilion in France, one of the urban best practice areas of the Expo construction project. Not long ago, this product was also selected into the "Shanghai eco home" project of the WorldExpo. In 1948, Dow Chemical invented this product called extruded polystyrene board. Because of its good heat preservation, heat insulation and sound insulation properties, this product was quickly applied to the construction field
in July, Dow dowthermtm SR-1 coolant was also selected into the WorldExpo. This product was applied to the c/c matrix composite material of Shanghai WorldExpo. It is the most valued new material with higher temperature resistance in recent years. The ice storage air conditioning system of the China Pavilion and the performance center can use electric peak staggering cold storage to reduce energy consumption
the fracture of these products and samples of Dow can not constitute this kind of state service. Because of "green" factors such as environmental protection and energy conservation, it was selected as the world's largest international expo event. However, over the past 100 years, global chemical companies with strong externalities have been facing the problem of sustainability, while the public has increasingly strict requirements for safe, environmentally friendly, energy-saving and efficient products, and the increasing pressure of policy constraints in various countries has also prompted chemical enterprises, including Dow, to continue to increase their investment in the field of sustainable strategies. Through continuous efforts, Dow has infiltrated the concept of "green" and "sustainable" into the operation of the whole company
this effort has achieved good environmental benefits. At the beginning of March this year, Dow Chemical released the sustainable development report for the fourth quarter of 2008, which showed that after the life cycle assessment conducted by a third party, the use of Dow thermal insulation materials on residential, commercial buildings and industrial pipelines has significantly reduced greenhouse gas emissions, and the reduced emissions have reached 7 times the total emissions of Dow. In September this year, Dow Chemical was listed on the Dow Jones Sustainability Index for the ninth consecutive time, which is the first authoritative index system to evaluate the financial performance of companies committed to sustainable development worldwide. Compared with last year, Dow's ranking is not only increased by the application of RS232 serial communication between experimental machines and computers, but also ranked first in the three projects of operational ecological efficiency, customer relationship management and environmental reporting
by sponsoring large-scale events such as the Shanghai WorldExpo, Dow Chemical tries to make customers and the public understand the true meaning of the concept of sustainable development and how the company's efforts to this end are helping people achieve a better life. "This power comes from Dow's accurate understanding of the future development trend of the global chemical industry and the future society's higher requirements for a harmonious environment, architecture and community." Said maijianming, global senior vice president of Dow Chemical Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa
in order to realize the concept of "sustainable chemistry", Dow Chemical has specially set up the position of chief sustainable development officer. At the same time, through a longer-term strategic plan, it will help the company achieve the environmental, health and safety goals to be achieved in the next century and fulfill its commitments in the global market
