    WALOCEL™ Cellulose Ethers from Dow offer successful performance for construction materials, offering exceptional water retention, rheology control, and workability across a wide range of applications.

    WALOCEL™ X-LIS Cellulose Ethers have been developed to reduce the impact on cement hydration, improving early strength while preserving final strength in new low CO2 emission cements with lower-clinker content. Supporting formulators who are using low-carbon alternatives to Portland cement.

    All WALOCEL™ Cellulose Ethers offer the same trusted functionality while achieving a 18% reduction in fossil carbon footprint. This can be achieved thanks to renewable energy use and cradle-to-gate life cycle assessment. Build better, with lower impact. *
