UK: PureGRAPH has supplied FP McCann with its graphene for use in a trial production run of 10,000 roof tiles at the latter’s Cadeby plant in Leicestershire. The trial ran for five months and used 40t of graphene-enhanced cement. It reduced cement consumption by 8% and cradle-to-gate CO2 emissions by 14%, without reducing tile strength.
IOM3 News has reported that discussions are reportedly underway with prospective industry partners over the deployment of the tiles in construction applications.
