ChemPoint and Eastman continue to deepen their long-standing, successful partnership by announcing a new collaboration: ChemPoint will now market, sell, and distribute Eastman’s TamiSolve™ NxG solvents in the United States and Canada.

“Our focus on specialty products and digital performance, our commitment to promote next-generation products, and our success in growing Eastman’s coatings and inks business were instrumental in expanding our partnership to include Eastman’s TamiSolve™ NxG solvents,” said Ann Hennessey, Senior Industry Manager at ChemPoint.

Eastman’s TamiSolve™ NxG solvents are used in various industrial applications, including coatings, inks, cleaners, electronics, agrochemical formulations, and chemical synthesis. They are not classified as developmental reprotoxic, so they can often replace n-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) and n-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone (NEP), as well as other solvents like dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether (DMM).

“Partnering with ChemPoint to bring TamiSolve™ NxG to customers across North America is an important step in expanding access to safer, high‑performance solvent solutions,” said Phil Begley, Eastman Sales Director – Coatings & Inks. “TamiSolve™ NxG delivers the robust solvency and formulation flexibility customers expect, while supporting product performance, worker safety, and more sustainable outcomes.”
