Six technologies from Dow have been selected from hundreds of nominees to be recognized with prestigious Edison Awards. Dow received five gold awards and one silver award in the categories of: Materials Science and Engineering; Manufacturing, Logistics & Transportation; and Sustainability, which were recently presented at the annual Edison Awards ceremony. Dow reports that it is the first company ever to receive five Gold Edison Awards in a single year and has won more gold awards cumulatively over the last decade than any other company.
"Thomas A. Edison was one of the world's greatest and most prolific inventors who had a tremendous influence on our modern-day lives," said A.N. Sreeram, senior vice president, Research & Development, and chief technology officer. "His inventions centered on market needs just like Dow's do today. It is an honor to receive these namesake innovation awards, which recognize that Dow technologies solve customer and societal needs, simultaneously deliver product performance and sustainability, while also creating value for our shareholders."
