TRAVELING A

CIRCULAR ROAD

TO A CLEANER

ENVIRONMENT.

What if every piece of plastic became a new product, recycled and
reused in a never-ending circle? Dow is catalyzing that “circular
economy” with education and innovations that keep plastic waste
out of the oceans and landfills. Here are a few examples of how
Dow is advancing on the road to a circular economy for plastic.

ADVERTORIAL FOR DOW

Dow is proving you can get great mileage out of plastic waste. Working with global partners,

polymer-modified asphalt roads are being constructed with recycled plastic. Greenhouse gas

emissions associated with traditional production processes are reduced, and there’s even potential

for use in road improvements. So far, 60 miles are complete with more on the way.

Dow works with customers to invest in innovation and new technologies to make quality plastic

packaging with the lowest environmental impact through their lifecycle. This helps ensure that

packaging can be reused or recycled, while still providing the benefits of reducing food waste

and helping brands lower their carbon dioxide reduction goals.
