Because of the unique characteristics of graphene, there has been significant investment in exploring the potential commercial applications of graphene. The global graphene market has seen a rapidly rising number of patent applications being filed and the graphene market is estimated to show a CAGR of 42 per cent. between 2014 and 2022, growing from $62.4 million in 2014 to $1,039 million by 2022. To date however, most of the activity relating to graphene has been on research and development activities where production has been of small batches produced in laboratories. The Directors believe that historically, most of the activity in the graphene sector has been focused on the following key areas:
Smart textiles – thermal and electrical conductivity, barrier properties and wearable electronics;
Composites – adhesives, sealants and high performing polyester and epoxy resins for enhanced mechanical, thermal, electrical and permeation properties, brake pads and other friction materials;
Elastomers – combination with silicon for heat management, replacement of carbon black in tyres;
Energy storage – improvements to carbon based lithium ion batteries and supercapacitors;
Conductive inks and other functionalised coatings such as anti-corrosion coatings, transparent conducting electronics, biomedical and industrial sensors; and
Advanced electronics – replacement for indium tin oxide and use in semi-conductors

Founded in 2005, Italian company Directs Plus (LONCTA) offers a wide range of graphene-based products that are either ready-to-use or custom-blended to meet specific technical requirements. Their IPO took place last week on AIM (a sub-market of the London Stock Exchange) where they offered up 39% of their shares for proceeds that amounted to around $18.64 million USD. Since the IPO, shares of DCTA have risen over +86% giving Directa Plus a current market cap of around $125 million USD.
Directa Plus has a 30 ton per year production capability for their graphene, and is looking to use their recent capital injection to expand capacity even more. They list their direct competitors in the U.S. as Angstron Materials, Vorbeck Materials, and XG Sciences, all of which are private companies at the moment. They also list the two publicly traded UK graphene stocks, Haydale and Applied Graphene Materials (AGM), as main competitors as well. Here’s a closer look at the Directa Plus graphene production process and target applications:
Directa Plus is not just shipping samples, they’re actually selling the graphene they produce for use in real products. In addition to the bicycle wheels we wrote about before, the Company has also sold three mobile decontamination units which use the Directa Plus’ Grafysorber® product for tackling environmental emergencies with contaminated water. They have also collaborated with Colmar, a leading sportswear and outdoor brand, on a sportswear collection made out of textiles that contain G+ graphene.
