CorporateStrategies<br>Dow Performance Chemicals: Stronger, Better, Global Integration of Union Carbide Products and Services Repositions Key Dow Business
The Dow Chemical Co. announced last August its full roster of products in its Performance Chemicals business group, reflecting the integration of Union Carbide products and services with existing Dow businesses. The integration will make Dow one of the largest specialty chemicals producers in the world.
"Clearly, the addition of Union Carbide to our performance chemicals portfolio has broadened not only our product offering around the globe, but also the technology and services we offer," says Andrew Liveris, business group president, Performance Chemicals. "Performance Chemicals includes more than 40 percent of the former Union Carbide businesses, more than doubling the size of the pre-merger Dow portfolio."
