Key Takeaways
Dow launched Coolant Care Network for liquid cooling systems in hyperscale data centers.
DOWFROST fluids aim to solve fragmented testing and limited cooling loop visibility.
Dow plans global network expansion across Europe, Latin America, and the Asia Pacific.
Dow Inc. (DOW - Free Report) announced the launch of Dow Coolant Care Network, a comprehensive service model geared to help data center operators improve reliability by protecting uptime and reducing operational risks in direct-to-chip liquid cooling systems. The initiative supports the growing demand for advanced cooling solutions driven by artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing and increasingly dense workloads in hyperscale data centers.
The network focuses on systems using DOWFROST LC and DOWFROST HD Heat Transfer Fluids that will address challenges of fragmented testing practices, disconnected service providers, and limited visibility into fluid performance across primary and secondary cooling loops. This approach combines fluid supply, testing, data analysis, expert interpretation and mitigation support within a single, coordinated framework. In the present scenario, liquid cooling has become essential for enabling AI-driven infrastructure as data centers emerge as the backbone of the digital economy.
The Dow Coolant Care Network includes routine and advanced fluid testing, centralized review of test data, technical guidance from Dow specialists, and in-field support for sampling and fluid health optimization. This coordinated approach allows operators to move to a proactive, data-driven coolant management strategy. Dow also plans to expand the network globally, with development underway in Europe, Latin America and the Asia Pacific.
DOW stock has gained 26.8% over the past year compared with the industry’s 12.9% growth.
