US' Trinseo introduces LIGOS A 9210 for flexible flooring adhesives
LIGOS A 9210 is engineered for demanding flooring applications. It offers excellent 90° peel strength at room temperature, maintaining performance even after long-term aging at 50°C, thanks to its strong resistance to plasticizer migration. It also minimizes dimensional changes within flooring layers, enhancing long-term durability. With rapid adhesion build-up, it allows flooring installations to be ready for use more quickly, especially Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) systems.
Trinseo has introduced LIGOS A 9210, an all-acrylic latex binder for flexible flooring adhesives, designed for high durability, strong 90° peel strength, and resistance to plasticiser migration. Ideal for Luxury Vinyl Tile systems, it offers fast adhesion, extended open time, and certified sustainability (Emicode EC 1+, Blue Angel, ISCC+ for Scope 3).
'With LIGOS A 9210, we're delivering a high-performance binder designed to meet the needs of the flooring industry,' said Giona Kilcher, CASE Global Business Director, Latex Binders at Trinseo. 'Its superior adhesion, plasticizer migration resistance and dimensional stability provide manufacturers with a durable and reliable solution for modern flooring applications, helping to enhance both performance and efficiency.'
LIGOS A 9210 allows for extended open working time, supporting smooth and efficient installation. Its initial green bond strength provides a secure hold from the start, while compatibility with LVT makes it a versatile choice. With stable storage in bulk formulations, it offers a reliable solution for flooring needs.
LIGOS A 9210 is produced using processes that minimize volatile organic compound (VOC) residues, making it an advantageous choice. The product meets rigorous third-party sustainability standards, including Emicode EC 1+ and Blue Angel certifications.
For customers in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa seeking to incorporate certified sustainable feedstocks, LIGOS A 9210 is also available through Mass Balance Certification (e.g., ISCC+), which may support Scope 3 emissions accounting, depending on the customer's methodology.

Italy's NextChem to equip world's top ultra-low carbon methanol plant
MAIRE ( announces that NEXTCHEM has been awarded about €210 million (~$247.8 million) basic engineering and critical proprietary equipment supply contract for the Pacifico Mexinol project. This ultra-low carbon methanol production facility will be located in Sinaloa, Mexico, and will have a capacity of 2.1 million tons per year, out of which around 15% eligible under the ISCC-EU RFNBO criteria for green fuels. The agreement has been signed by NEXTCHEM's subsidiary KT Tech with Samsung E&A Co., Ltd. as the EPC contractor for the project. The signing ceremony was attended by Mexican federal, state and municipal government officials, as well as ambassadors from the US, Italy and Korea, together with senior executives of the companies involved in the project. NextChem, a MAIRE company, secured a €210 million (~$247.8 million) contract for engineering and equipment supply for the Pacifico Mexinol ultra-low carbon methanol plant in Mexico. Set to be the world's largest of its kind, the facility will use NextChem 's NX AdWinMethanol Zero technology and begin operations in 2029, supporting global decarbonisation efforts. The Pacifico Mexinol project, worth over USD 3.3 billion, is being jointly developed by Texas-based Transition Industries and the International Finance Corporation (IFC), part of the World Bank, and will be executed by a consortium composed of third parties. Once operational in 2029, it is poised to be the largest single ultra-low carbon methanol facility in the world – producing approximately 350 thousand metric tons of RFNBO (Renewable Fuel of Non-Biological Origin) methanol and 1.8 million metric tons of low carbon methanol from natural gas with carbon capture per year. The contract, subject to Final Investment Decision, which is expected in the fourth quarter of 2025, includes basic engineering and critical proprietary equipment supply based on the proprietary NX AdWinMethanol Zero technology, as well as site assistance services, support for commissioning, start-up and operations. The NX AdWinMethanol Zero technology developed by NEXTCHEM integrates its proprietary processes including its CO2 capture technologies. This solution further minimizes carbon emissions to nearly zero by converting captured CO2 and green hydrogen into ultra-low-carbon methanol eligible as RFNBO. This innovative technological approach increases the sustainability of the methanol production process, in line with Pacifico Mexinol's commitment to addressing climate change. Ultra-low carbon methanol supports the decarbonization of hard-to-abate fuels and chemicals sectors. The methanol produced by Pacifico Mexinol will facilitate the decarbonization of hundreds of downstream everyday products, such as fuels, plastics, paints, car parts and construction materials. Fabio Fritelli, Managing Director of NEXTCHEM , commented: 'This landmark achievement, being the largest single award ever granted to NEXTCHEM, plays a pivotal role in our business trajectory and confirms the reliability of our sustainable technology solutions portfolio. We are honored to support this strategic initiative which is set to be a gamechanger for Mexican domestic economy, as well as for the energy transition arena globally.'
