Dow Corning—now operating as Dow Silicones Corporation following Dow’s 2016 acquisition—is a global producer of silicone and siloxane materials. Founded in 1943 as a joint venture between The Dow Chemical Company and Corning Incorporated, the business today is wholly owned by Dow Inc. and forms the core of Dow’s silicones franchise.
The company develops and manufactures a broad portfolio of silicone-based products, including siloxane intermediates, elastomers, sealants, adhesives, fluids, emulsions, foams, resins, and coatings. These materials are used across electronics, automotive and transportation, construction and infrastructure, industrial assembly, consumer goods, energy, and healthcare applications, where they provide thermal stability, weatherability, electrical insulation, sealing, and release properties.
Dow Corning/Dow Silicones operates an international network of manufacturing and R&D sites and markets its silicone solutions globally (with most products now sold under the DOWSIL brand). Its capabilities span upstream siloxane production through formulation and application development, supporting customers with specialty materials and technical expertise across the silicone value chain.
