Founded in 2011, Grafoid Inc. is a graphene research, development and investment company that invests in, manages and develops markets for processes that produce economically scalable graphene for use in graphene development applications by leading corporations and institutions. Grafoid’s leading investment produces application friendly, minimal-defect, high-energy density few layer graphene, utilizing a safe, non-destructive extraction process, leaving the lowest possible ecological footprint. The completely unique, proprietary process results in what Grafoid regards as a new global standard for economically scalable, high-purity graphene products — trademarked under the MesoGraf™ trade name — that can be tailored to both industrial and commercial applications.
Grafoid is totally unique in the graphene space in that the Company does not sell graphene at the
retail level. That conventional business model is simply not sustainable long term. Instead, Grafoid
intends to sell graphene solutions to every industry. Grafoid endeavors to partner with companies in
every industrial sector to deliver far superior solutions at very reasonable prices, in conjunction with
industry partners who will have the potential to gain a leading position in their respective industries
MesoGraf™ can provide the opportunity to utilize low-cost, high-purity graphene in all of their products.
We believe our one-step, low-cost transformation to MesoGraf™ from raw graphite is incomparable in terms of cost competitiveness.
Grafoid's method of producing MesoGraf™ does not use harsh chemicals like other graphene producers.
MesoGraf™ can be dispersed in solutions for coatings, mixed with polymers, and provides substantial enhancements in strength and thermal electrical characteristics — and will soon be joined by an expanded family of graphene derivatives for a vast array of applications
Grafoid has a number of unique factors that position the Company as a potential global commercial leader in the graphene industry:
Grafoid brings product, process and expertise to develop new graphene applications.
Grafoid has invested in a revolutionary process to extract high quality, few layer graphene directly from graphite ore without going through harsh extraction processes that damage graphene’s unique characteristics.
The greatest challenge in commercializing graphene is how to produce high-quality material, on a large scale at low cost, and in a reproducible manner. Grafoid has successfully overcome these challenges with the MesoGraf™ production process.
Determined that the science works – MesoGraf™ graphene is now being produced on a scalable production basis and the quality has been independently characterized and validated by major corporations, academic institutions and industrial partners.
In testing market acceptance, Grafoid has proven significant market potential. Keen interest has been shown from joint venture partners and Grafoid is currently involved in more than 17 joint venture graphene application development projects.
Grafoid is partnered with publicly traded Focus Graphite Inc. (TSX-V: FMS | OTCQX: FCSMF | FSE: FKC), one of the premier graphite development companies in the world and owner of the ultrahigh-grade, Lac Knife graphite deposit in Québec, Canada. While Grafoid’s process works with any graphite source, having long-term security of supply is critical with a strategic mineral.
Grafoid is partnering with leading universities, research laboratories and blue-chip corporations in graphene application development.
Grafoid and its partners remain in control of application development.
Grafoid has launched a global platform consisting of Grafoid Inc., Focus Graphite Inc., and Graphite Zero Pte Ltd.– to deliver a mine-to-market, scalable suite of MesoGraf™ graphene products.
Seasoned corporate leaders in public start-ups join key scientific and inventor talent in graphene production.
Grafoid employs a two-track process to lead the way — developing a global standard in graphene production through MesoGraf™ and challenging the competition in application development.
Grafoid is a complete solutions graphene company — a standalone in the world — and is potentially one of the purest ways to invest in the coming Graphene Revolution.
