First Graphene said on April 28, 2026 that it agreed to buy the manufacturing, intellectual property and development assets of Ionic Industries and Imagine Intelligent Materials, a move aimed at giving it immediate access to revenue-generating graphene coatings formulations for geotextiles and environmental infrastructure.
First Graphene said a five-month UK production trial with FP McCann made more than 10,000 graphene-enhanced roof tiles while cutting cradle-to-gate emissions by up to 14%, a concrete step toward commercial construction use.
First Graphene said on April 23, 2026, that a world-first trial of graphene-enhanced cement roof tiles produced strong results, giving the company a fresh commercialization marker in construction materials. The test is notable because it moves graphene further from lab-scale demonstrations and toward a product category where durability, cost and repeatability matter more than headline material properties.
First Graphene has completed a 600-tonne batch of graphene-enhanced cement in the UK, setting up trials in roof tiles and infrastructure work that will test whether the additive can move further into commercial construction use.
First Graphene has secured exclusive global rights to develop, market and sell a graphene-enhanced carbon paste already used in perovskite solar cells, a step that widens the company’s commercialization path beyond the lab and into manufacturing planning.
