DOWFROST™ inhibited propylene glycol has been the go-to industry standard thermal fluid for decades based on two simple facts: performance and service. The performance of the thermal fluid speaks for itself, but technical support and service can be overlooked, especially when comparing the price to homebrew glycol alternatives.
Testing and Support
ChemPoint has been offering best-in-class service with the Dow heat transfer fluids for over a decade, with satisfied customers in industries from food and pharmaceutical manufacturing to industrial HVAC systems and everything in between.
Inventory & Logistics
ChemPoint stocks Dow heat transfer fluids in nine warehouses in the United States, creating a two-day shipment service level across the lower 48 states. We have teams dedicated to analyzing forecasts and inventory, considering spiked demand and seasonality to provide just-in-time delivery for our valued customers. ChemPoint partners closely with Dow, receiving glycol concentrate in bulk and blending to precise dilutions for the packaged drums and totes available today.
Free Dow Test Kits
Dow Chemical offers free test kits to properly analyze the glycol concentration within the fluid system. It is vital that proper dilution of glycol to deionized water is maintained to provide an adequate level of corrosion inhibitors and extend the operational life of the heat transfer fluid. If a thermal fluid is not properly inhibited, it can quickly lead to runaway rust and corrosion deep within a system. In a worst-case scenario, it can lead to a failure in sealing, excessive leakage, and fluid volume loss.
With multiple chemical engineers and technical experts on the ChemPoint thermal fluids team, we are prepared to answer any and all questions you may have regarding the thermal fluid solutions. Below is a more in-depth breakdown of the team members and their roles.
