Serving North America, Latin America and the Pacific Rim, Dow’s Fort Saskatchewan manufacturing site forms one of the largest petrochemical facilities in Canada. It uses natural resources in the area to make olefin monomers and plastics for a wide range of industries and customers.
With four world-scale production units on 2128 acres, Dow produces hydrocarbons, ethylene, polyethylene, and electricity. More than 1.4 million tons of product leaves the site each year by rail and truck, with over half of it bound for customers outside of Canada.
The Fort Saskatchewan site celebrated 55 years of operations in 2016 and is one of two sites in the province that comprise Dow Canada's Alberta Operations.
