The companies have agreed to combine their expertise in carbon capture, graphene production and materials development to accelerate the roll out of Zentek’s ZenGuard Enhanced Air Filters and other graphene-enhanced products within the region, while also supporting the production of graphene for other industries.
Levidian’s patented LOOP system produces clean hydrogen and high-quality graphene by capturing carbon from methane before it’s burned. The graphene produced can be deployed in a wide range of products, from batteries and solar panels to tyres and plastics.
Ian Hopkins, Chief Commercial Officer at Levidian, said: “Zentek’s commitment to using nanomaterials to tackle some of the world’s most pressing challenges aligns seamlessly with Levidian’s mission to decarbonise industries. By integrating our graphene production capabilities with Zentek’s expertise in advanced materials, we can support regional sustainability goals while significantly improving air quality for businesses and communities.”
Ryan Shacklock, Senior Vice President, Strategy and Business Development at Zentek, said: “Our ZenGuard Enhanced Air Filters leverage the powerful attributes of graphene to improve indoor air quality and energy efficiency. As important, this unique value proposition is a compelling example of a commercially viable graphene-based technology created by making an existing product better.
“Looking ahead, our partnership with Levidian marks an exciting next step, bringing together their cutting-edge carbon capture technology with high-quality graphene production, to support international expansion of ZenGuard Enhanced Air Filters. We believe it also helps pave the way to develop a broader portfolio of new commercially viable, graphene-enhanced products that support public health and global sustainability goals. We look forward to advancing this important work with the Levidian team.”
Levidian is already working to identify the location for a new production and delivery centre in the region, which will serve as a showcase and central production hub for the business.
