• The desire for sustainable products with increased bio-content has garnered interest in alternative feedstocks for ethylene and propylene production.
• The use of renewable bio-based feedstocks, in lieu of fossil feedstocks, provides an approach to producing a chemically equivalent final product while improving the product's sustainability profile.
• The mass balance approach offers consumers a way to obtain products with increased bio-content in a cost-efficient way,* while transitioning away from a dependence on conventional feedstocks.

Dow offers detergent manufacturers the opportunity to be part of tomorrow’s sustainability ecosystem and powered by recycled carbon. Recycled carbon surfactants combine high performance with cutting edge climate tech to deliver quality and environmental benefits today to laundry detergents and hard surface cleaners. 

Early adopters will benefit from a drop-in solution that doesn’t compromise on the performance of traditional fossil-based surfactants, enabling a new circular carbon economy. Home Care products can now leverage a novel carbon capture-based approach for surfactant production.
