Dow Extends Operations at its PMDI Facility in LaPorte, Texas
Dow, Midland, Mich., will further extend part of its polymeric methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (PMDI) operations at its LaPorte, Texas, facility, while the company's new 500 million lb. PMDI facility in Freeport, Texas, continues its start-up process.
Dow also announced that the Force Majeure it had declared for its MDI products in North America has been lifted. However, the company added that an order control is in place for North American MDI due to continued strong demand and limited inventories.
