Dow Inc. (DOW) management addressed market conditions during a presentation at the Morgan Stanley conference, providing insights into the company's outlook for its packaging and performance materials segments.

The company reported that demand for packaging remains stable. This stability is driven by continued resilience in the food packaging sector and the flexible packaging market.

Management highlighted that the company is currently facing temporary margin pressure in its European and Asian operations. This pressure is attributed to higher feedstock costs. However, the company expects that price increases will eventually take effect to offset these rising costs.
