DOWFROST™ and DOWFROST™ HD are industry-trusted, propylene glycol-based heat transfer fluids manufactured by Dow and distributed nationally by ChemPoint in drums, totes, and bulk quantities. Engineered with food-grade propylene glycol and corrosion inhibitors, DOWFROST™ fluids provide effective freeze and burst protection in both closed-loop and secondary cooling systems. These fluids are ideal for applications where low acute oral toxicity is preferred, including food and beverage processing, HVAC, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and glycol-based thermal energy storage. DOWFROST™ HD offers enhanced corrosion protection and longer fluid life for more demanding industrial and high-temperature systems.
DOWFROST™ is backed by NSF HT1 registration (DOWFROST™ only, not HD), extensive OEM compatibility data, and a national distribution network that ensures product availability for planned maintenance and emergency refills. Whether you’re sourcing propylene glycol heat transfer fluid for a chiller system, fermentation tank, or indirect contact food application, ChemPoint can help identify the right DOWFROST™ product and ensure timely delivery to minimize downtime.
