Bangkok/Thailand – Dow has recently announced that its Propylene Glycol (PG) manufacturing facility in Map Ta Phut, Rayong, Thailand, has earned the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) Plus. This certification reinforces Dow’s ongoing commitment to advancing sustainable production and offering circular and bio-circular products to customers in the Asia Pacific region.

Applying innovative technologies, two new sustainable PG products will be available in Asia Pacific and certified by ISCC Plus through mass balance:

Propylene Glycol CIR featuring Renuva recycled material helps customers close the loop and process hard-to-recycle post-consumer and post-industrial waste into sustainable feedstocks,

Propylene Glycol Ren featuring Ecolibrium bio-circular technology enables a reduction in the use of fossil fuel-based feedstocks.

The new PG offerings are designed to help customers reach their circular and sustainability goals and are suitable for a broad range of applications across industries including personal care, pharmaceutical, food ingredients, flavorings and fragrances.
