NEW YORK , Dec. 14, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nano Graphene Inc. dba GrapheneCA (“GrapheneCA”) announced today that it has joined the ranks of IntelliFLEX, the Canadian organization which aims to unite industrial companies and research and academic organizations into effective supply chains for flexible, 3D printable electronics, 2D large area printable electronics, wearable electronics, smart textiles and hybrid electronics, including related semiconductors, integrated circuits and software.
“We are extremely proud to have such a highly innovative and respected graphene developer/manufacturer join our organization, and we look forward to fruitful collaborations in the very near future”, said intelliFLEX President and CEO, Peter Kallai.
A dynamic industry force, intelliFLEX, is a not-for-profit industry alliance partnering with more than 300 organizations across Canada to accelerate the growth of the flexible and hybrid electronics sector.
For its part, GrapheneCA is on a mission to work with a network of Canadian businesses to promote tech development. “We indeed look forward to partnering with the industry to demonstrate how graphene can be used in the next generation of sensors, thin film and composites, to name but a few applications”, said David Robles, GrapheneCA’s NYC-based Head of Business Development, who went on to say, “These devices are changing how electronics are made and are what the future holds for such things as antennas, networking devices, IoT building blocks and circuit boards.”
He added, “This is in line with GrapheneCA’s commitment to being a good industry player and contributor to driving the future forward. We have short-term plans to operate out of Montreal and are focused on becoming a fully-fledged member of the Canadian community. IntelliFLEX is introducing us to some of their key members, and we are eager to begin working with them as well as joining into education events.”
About Graphene
Graphene is a single plane 2D carbon allotrope. Described by many as the 21st century “Miracle Material”, Graphene stands to impact wide scale industries. It can be compared to steel and plastic in the scale of material innovation but with more addressable applications. Discovered in 2004, it was awarded the Nobel Prize in 2010, and is now being progressively commercialized.
About GrapheneCA
GrapheneCA is a privately owned, commercial scale graphene and graphene-based materials producer, and supply company headquartered in New York. It is dedicated to tackling the challenge of integrating graphene into real-world applications through the use of its own highly effective, scalable, and environmentally friendly production process. GrapheneCA has developed a production facility in New York and currently produces stacked graphite flakes with less than 0.03% oxygen contamination on a large scale. GrapheneCA’s proven technology is being patented in both the USA and China.
