  Dow Chemical Company - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dow is the world's largest producer of plastics including polystyrene, polyurethanes, polyethylene terephthalate, polypropylene, and synthetic rubbers.

Today, Dow is the world's largest producer of plastics, and with its 2001 acquisition of Union Carbide has become a major player in the petrochemical industry as well.
