2024 is the year all five of our European packaging and specialty plastics sites achieved Operation Clean Sweep® certification 👏 Operation Clean Sweep® is one of the highest levels of sustainability certification in Europe. To achieve it, each site must demonstrate to an independent third-party auditor all the measures we're taking toward zero pellet loss. The ultimate goal? To keep valuable plastics out of waterways and our environment. Thank you to #TeamDow for all the work to achieve this certification.

Advanced recycling can help stop millions of tons of plastic being wasted. So we’re investing in infrastructure and new technologies to help give plastic waste almost infinite lives. Like our collaboration with Freepoint Eco-Systems, taking pyrolysis oil from their Arizona facility and transforming it into new, circular products. Collaboration is crucial to scaling advanced recycling, helping to develop capacity that’s capable of meeting increasing demand for recycled materials.

50 volunteers. 30 bags of trash and recycling collected. 230 trees planted. 🌱 On America Recycles Day, a collection of volunteers including Dow employees spent the day cleaning up debris and planting trees in Houston’s Shady Lane Park. The work was in conjunction with Houston Wilderness, a nonprofit organization that plants trees in strategic ecosystems around the Houston area to enhance biodiversity and reduce health risks associated with urban heat, air, water pollution and flooding. It was great to see #TeamDow lend a helping hand! 🙌 #AmericaRecyclesDay #PlantingTrees #Cleanup
